Trying to Crawl

Brian is trying SO HARD to crawl these days. He's getting really strong through his arms (likely due to all of the PT exercises on the fitness ball). For those, he has lay on his belly and push up on his arms while looking to the left. Anyway, with this extra strength and new found confidence, he's been spending a lot of time on his belly. He's got the pushing up on his arms part down pat and can get up on his knees from time to time (especially if there is something to push his feet against and hold him in place). However, since most of the time he's pushing with his arms only, he can't get forward motion so he ends up scooting backward on his belly. He can make it across an entire room in this fashion and gets quite angry when he realizes he's much farther away from whatever he was trying to get to in the first place. It's pretty funny. Here are some pictures of him attempting to crawl. Notice Shawn's legs are keeping his feet in place so he won't slide backward.
