Usually when I put Will to bed, he'll cry for a minute or two before falling asleep and I check on him periodically until he's fast asleep. Last night when I went to check on him, he totally surprised me - he was SITTING UP ON HIS OWN in the crib! We've never seen him sit up on his own after placing him on his back. Uh-oh! Time to lower the crib! :)
He's also getting really good at scooting backwards. It's not quite a crawl, but very close. He does not stay on the baby blanket on the floor anymore - he's mobile now! We really need to get our house baby-proofed! We're excited for him as he's reaching these new milestones. His teachers at day care say he loves scooting backwards and that they've been busy moving the other babies out of his way so he doesn't sit in them. I think it won't be long before he moves to the "older infant" side of the classroom.
Here are some pictures of Will's activity days at school: Splash Day! (top), 4th of July Parade! (middle), Super Hero Day! (bottom)
