He's on the MOVE!!

Aidan, that is! He just crawled from the far wall of the living room through to under the dining room table on the opposite wall (it's a double room). He was pushing a basketball trying to grab it and before we knew it, there he was! And of course, my camera battery was charging and I couldn't get a picture. It's amazing how mobile he is. He gets just about anywhere he wants to go, even before he was officially crawling. He'd do the creeping, pulling, bouncing, rocking, pivoting form of action and would get into all kinds of stuff. Now I really need to child proof the house even more securely. Walking is next. :-) Josiah was 8 months old (same age Aidan is now) when he started walking and by 9 months, he was running and also liked climbing up my bookshelves! Shortly after that, I'd catch him dancing on my dining room table. Yes, my firstborn was a table-top dancer at 10 months. :-) What's a mother to do? lol
*Edited to add: Okay, this isn't actually him crawling tonight but I had to post something showing what the little guy looks like when he's in position. lol And now that the camera is charged, he's pooped out on me. Down for the count. So here's a photo from Christmas that looks just like him now (um, yeah, that was last week, right? lol) Man, he's such a cute lil bugger!

This is so cool!!!! I cannot believe it was 8 months ago that I called your house, and freaked out Josiah by knowing his name -- and he knew NOTHING of me!!!

Go, go, go Aidan!!
