Wave On

A quick check in the Babewatch archives reminded me that by nine months Megan could scoot (but not crawl), wave, and sit up by herself. Liam's nine month birthday came and went and all he could do was scoot. Aaah, give him the benefit of the doubt, I reminded myself; he's a preemie and deserves a little extra time. And then, Bam!, a week before Christmas (his adjusted nine month birthday), Liam began to wave. We admit that his wave looks more like the kid is having a small seizure in his arm rather than being a warm gesture of greeting, but nonetheless he is waving. Sitting up is a different issue; we're still waiting for him to figure that one out. And we've seen a lot younger kids crawl circles around Liam as he squirms lamely on the ground. But at least he can wave at those kids as they crawl by.

"Hi Mom!"
