Everyone has to try something once. Whether it be foods or experiences or jobs. You don’t know if you will like it or accomplish it if you don’t just try it.
Matthew is an expert crawler, dude can make it from one end of the house to the other, before you realize he has left the room. Madilyn however has never been too happy with crawling, nor has she been very good at it. She actually is more of a “hopper” her. SHe would put her two hands out in front of her, then with her legs splayed behind her yet bent sideways at the knees, she would hop like a frog to where she needed to be. Her developmental therapist told Marisa to discourage this because it was not good for her hips.
Being discouraged from crawling, she has been the first to try walking. She likes to hold your hand and walk along. Matthew will if he has to, but would prefer crawling, it is a much faster means of transportation for him.
This past weekend, Marisa caught Madilyn on video taking some of her first steps. Hopefully Matthew won’t be too far behind.
