Milestone for Archer - Crawling!

Archer has been close to crawling since the week after thanksgiving and he finally made the milestone the day after Christmas. Jarad and Jerry were up with him early in the morning on the 26th and they said that he crawled about four steps, but he only did it one time. Since then, we hadn't seen him crawl again until we arrived in Moorhead the night of the 28th. We'd been driving in the car all afternoon and when we arrived that evening, he just started crawling. He still moves pretty slow and goes back to sitting quite often, but he is definitely a "crawler" now! Check out these videos.



As soon as we got to MN on Nov. 29th, Archer was getting on all fours and "revving" or "rocking." He would do this often between then and now and he still does it sometimes. When we were in Mpls on Nov. 19th, we first saw him go from all fours back up to sitting on his own. While in Duluth this past week, he became a pro at going from all fours to sitting and he does this all the time. He now crawls to get to where he wants and then tries to grab the item and sit back up. Often times he will sit up a few times before getting to the item he wants depending on how far away it is. He still moves quite slowly as you'll see in the video, but he does manage to get all over the place. He also loves to hold onto our hands and stand now. We are sure it won't be long before he hits the next Milesonte...Pulling Up. Stay tuned.
