Nico at high speeds!

Two days ago, I went into the bathroom to start Nico's bath. I had left him, as we do, hanging out on the floor of his room, playing. I suddenly hear the sound of little hands on tile, and turn to see my son crawling merrily after me. He went right into the bathroom, was steered away from the cat box, saw some bathtoys on the ground, and went over to bang little plastic cups together. The barrier of his room threshold, had been broken (it was really, we think, the change from carpet to colder tile that had kept him from crawling out). Don't worry, we have a baby gate.

Today, I took out my guitar and started to play, and then did a pied piper routine as I got him to follow me out of his bedroom and into the kitchen, then sort of back again. The kitchen was filled with neat new things and he got a bit distracted.

Later, I took one of his favorite toys and put it in the kitchen and watched him crawl around after it. I've got two videos of these. I need a cheap video editor as the best video of all was too big for youtube - it shows him crawling after a ball, hitting it, and having to crawl after it again. Halfway through the video he sits up and does his other neat trick, which is casting shadows by moving his hands, and watching the shadows!

Anywhere, here are the ones I have for you.

Wow... he gets up from crawling to sitting and back down again with such ease.

He's moving into kneel now too in front of this little play table!
