Hunter has been getting all of the moves down for trying to crawl. He just had to figure out how to put it all together. This afternoon after lunch I had Hunter on the floor while i cleaned the kitchen. He was making some serious grunting sounds so I peeked around the corner and there he was CRAWLING BACKWARDS! I continued to watch as he repeated this. He would throw a toy behind him get on his tummy, then on his hands and knees and crawl backwards. He then proceeded to pick up the toy and pushed him self to the setting position and would continued to play. I being a first time mom got so excited and made a huge deal of it. He must have thought I was crazy because I ran over to him and picked him up and gave him the biggest hug. Oh I love this little guy! This was a great thing for me to witness today because it has been two nights in a row of teething baby. As you other mother's know that means not much sleeping going on. I needed this little happy moment. YEA HUNTER!!!

Yeah, thats how it starts. Playing fetch with himself is cute too. You're so good to praise him at anything. He'll grow up knowing he's loved and noticed, when he's doing something good and not just attention for the bad. Positive Reinforcement, thats the key!
Amazing! I love all the little milestones babies go through... and I think it is perfect to get super excited. The little good things make up for all the hard times for sure.
I miss my little man, can't wait to see him in two more months! Yeah Hunter!
What a mile stone! Beware...walking is next! Enjoy each moment!
