Crawling

Grant never crawled so when Ashton was 6 months old and still showed no signs of crawling we decided to do something about it! After talking to an occupational therapist from our church, we began doing upper body exersizes with Ashton using an exersize ball. After only 2 weeks of that he began to show dramatic improvement and now at 9 months he is beginning to crawl! I only wish someone would have been able to help us when Grant was this age. Because he never crawled his upper body strength is less than that of most kids his age. But we're working on that--lots of time at the park climbing on the equipment! Anyway, we are thankful that Colleen was able to help us with Ashton. Now I'm going to have to baby proof my house! I'll be down on all fours today checking out what Ashton can get to now that he's mobile!
