2 days shy of 10 months…
After 9 months, 3 weeks and 5 days, He crawled.
At this point I no longer thought that it would happen, as a matter of fact in a selfish way I wished it didn’t because he was so mobile being immobile that I was afraid of what true mobility would bring. In addition to that, he had a pretty good ability to hold onto furniture and walk around that I really thought he would be one of those who skipped the crawling phase and go straight to walking. Not that I wanted that either as it scared me last night when I put him to sit down in our walk in closet as I tried to find something to wear to work and the next thing I knew I felt something that felt like hair grazing a little above my knees only to look down and see Jarrett standing up holding onto my laundry hamper. It was so cute and sweet and amazing to see him smiling up at me. I was so proud of him, as he was in himself. At that moment, I was like Wow, I’m a mom to this little baby who is growing up so tremendously fast who I can barely believe is now 10 months old. Only days ago it seems, I was waiting for my cesarean section to happen and a little boy was loaned to Marvin and I. Sorry for the sentiment, but I am really just very thankful that I am blessed with the opportunity to be Jarrett’s mom.
This is his first crawl (well sort of) after a couple of tries and me running to get the camera.
This is on his 10 month birthday, he had been crawling all day and had taken pictures and was tired and all he wanted to do was go to sleep.
