only going backwards

Life is tough when you're a baby.
Especially when you're a baby that has so far only figured out how to crawl
backwards,
and not intentionally.
He gets stuck. And that's not fun at all. (Nevermind his smile, he was simply excited to think that I was going to rescue him)

And to make matters worse, he has a mama that says,
"Hang on just one second-let me get the camera!" before she un-sticks him.

It's little wonder he's frustrated about it.

Imagine how you would feel if every time you tried to walk over to the fridge, or the computer, or your wallet, you instead end up on the other side of the room,
with no idea how to get any closer to the object you want.
I never thought I'd want my child to learn to crawl, but
we have high hopes of Nicholas figuring out how to motor
forwards
in the very near future.

For our sakes as well as his.
