Crawling

Caden is officially crawling! He has been really working on it for about 2 weeks now but the last few days he has actually started getting places by crawling. He is still wobbly and slow but everyday he gets a little better. I am nervous about this big change both of us are experiencing because my responsibility is greatly increasing. I am no longer able to just leave Caden in the living room to play with his toys for 15 minutes while I do laundry or dishes (I peek in on him every few minutes). He sleeps with us at night so I am going to have to be more aware of him when he wakes up so he doesn't find the edge of the bed. He loves putting dog toys in his mouth and now he will be able to find those nasty toys easier. But I am also very excited about this. It brings me so much joy to see him smile at me while he crawls and see how proud he is of his new accomplishment. I am both sad and joyful watching all the changes in just 7 months. I already miss my little newborn baby but I love watching him grow. Here is a little video of him crawling today. He gets distracted and falls but he still makes it to his goal.

I am so in love with this baby boy!
