CC is soooooooo close to taking off. He started the year just managing to get onto his front from the sitting position by doing the 'frog'. He'd press his feet together, knees split to the side and pull himself over. last two weeks ago he started reversing this and progressed into pushing himself backwards until he'd work a foot back under himself so he could push himself back to sitting. He's been working on this technique for the past week or so and so can propel himself backwards until he reaches his destination and then uprights himself. Adding to this he's now bringing his knees together and rocking on his knees in the crawling position but hasn't sussed moving his knees yet - he'd rather flatten himself on the ground and frantically kick his legs as though he's practising a new swimming stroke!
Very late in the day he actually mastered rolling over only yesterday! I'd just discussed with BFS last night about how if you plonked him on his bum in a room and left, then when you came back he could have moved anywhere, however should you leave him on his back he would remain there like a stranded turtle. No sooner had I said this than at the next nappy change he promptly rolled onto his front as if trying to make an escape! What a nightmare - I'm now having to pin down one of his arms to keep him still long enough to get his bum wiped!
There is no doubt though, that by the time BFS returns from work that he is going to be greeted by a mini mobile missile!
