    Low Center of Gravity

    Josh has been going through a real spurt of changes lately. Not only is he physically getting bigger (at an almost alarming rate), his coordination is improving. He's figured out that the buttons in his crib control the music on his mobile. He does quite have the strength or dexterity to push the buttons, but that hasn't stopped him from trying. He also seems determined to sit up on his own. He still has a long way to go in this department, but it's amusing to watch on his back doing "stomach crunches" as he tries to sit up like his parents.

    Here he tries to keep himself upright in a sitting position. Alas, it wasn't to be. I love his expression of exasperation when he flops onto his back. He immediately seeks solace in something he does well, toe sucking.
