Crawling
While I don't have any video or pictures to prove Jake is officially crawling - but he is! In the last week he has moved from being able to scoot and roll everywhere to getting up on all 4 and conquering the house. It's off to the store tonight to buy a baby gate. You might be asking why we don't have one yet. Our stairway is exceptionally wide and all those nice looking pressure mount wood gates are all too narrow. I've googled, asked around, and googled some more to only find the eye sore ones in extra wide. But an eye sore is the price we'll pay for a child not falling down the stairs. I can't believe how quick he is. As much as I looked forward to him crawling, getting ready in the morning is a daunting task. Any suggestions out there?

Suggestions...Good luck! Welcome to the crazy world of movement. I sometimes put Cullen in the bathtub. He loves to play with his toys, toothbrush, etc. He thinks it is big stuff to be in there with no water. No injuries yet...
you know...i thought about the bathtub this morning as i was blowdrying my hair. maybe tomorrow. we really just need to get a gate...any gate.
At my parents, we use the dining room chairs to block the stairs. Not a permanent solution, but it works. They are way too heavy for him to move.
Just put bean bags at the bottom of he stairs to cushion any potential fall...it's all good!
