He's on the move, well sorta



My sweet Micah is on the move. So, here is how it went down. When Micah was born I laid him on his belly to sleep. GASP! I know, can you believe it? That is how I roll. Unless one of my babies does not like sleeping on his/her belly I will continue to do this. I am horrible at swaddling, so it is my only option. For my babies, I think they sleep better which means I sleep better. :) THEN, the dreadful time came where Micah learns how to roll over from his belly to his back BUT(the kicker) does not know how to roll from his back to his belly. This means waking up every time he rolls from his belly to his back and crying crying crying until I roll him back over. Whew! Now, that is tiring. So, we passed that moment...I started to lay him on his back with a pillow. He loved it and slept great. Although his hair was a rats nest EVERY TIME I got him up, which required me buying detangler just to get the knots out. Things have changed as of yesterday. I came into his room because he had been sleeping for a while. And he is completely off the pillow. He is on his hands and knees trying to crawl, not being successful because of the side of the crib. He still doesn't see me, and he starts to roll EVERYWHERE in his crib. It is so funny. I start to talk to him and tell him that he obviously has some tricks up his sleeve and he just smiles so big(which means, "yes, I do!"). Micah is 6 months old. So, none of this is abnormally early, but it is just so funny because I remember Parker doing the same thing. For some reason their crib is the place where they feel comfy doing all those tricks. When Micah is sitting on the floor he tries so hard to crawl. He reaches for everything and ends up on his hands and knees from sitting position trying to get to something. Parker officially started crawling at 7 months and got his first tooth at the same time. I really think Micah will be falling in the same footsteps and possibly earlier. Who knows? I am proud of my sweet boy. He is so good, so happy, and just chills. God is so good to bless me with two amazing boys! They are so fun right now. I love it!
