Progressive Baby


Jacob is not content to scoot backwards or in circles, oh no, not this baby. It's forward all the way!

Not 12 hours after watching his grown-up 10-month-old friends crawling around at the holiday party, Jacob worked out how to propel himself in a forward direction to the object(s) of his desire. I swear, he is such a copycat! This video shows the early moments of his forward movement, but he is already picking up speed after a weekend of practice, and no remote control, cell phone, or electrical wire is safe.

We are, by the way, NOT on the West Coast. Due to circumstances too stressful and complicated to relate, we have been stuck in snowy Brooklyn all weekend. We are terribly sad to have missed out on a weekend of grandparently delights, but have extended our trip a few days longer to make up the time next week. But tomorrow we will (knock on wood, toss salt, etc.) be flying to Oregon, so let the great experiment begin!
