He's on the move!

About a week ago, Ryan started scooting around the floor on his belly after lunging from a sitting position. A few days ago, he started to crawl. Now, he's all over the place. I'm finding myself constantly shifting his attention away from the lamps, fireplace and furniture with corners...we even bought a new leather storage ottoman to replace our coffee table so that Ryan's less likely to smash his face into its squared legs, top or lower shelf (again...sigh).

His crawl is a typical baby crawl only about 20% of the time -- the rest of the time he's on two hands, his left knee and his right foot. Whatever works! :)

Today, he successfully made it to the fireplace, and pulled himself to standing on the hearth (about 10 inches tall). Holy cow! I'll post some video of him cruising soon. For now, you'll have to settle for a shot of him on the beach. Ok, ok - it's the Winghaven pool "beach" area. :) Stephen loves this shot -- says his face is like a GQ model in a swimsuit ad.
