Independent Movement


Charlie has begun figuring out the basics of moving his body by himself. He is good at rolling, and I'm pretty sure he's started scooting—pretty sure because he only does it when I'm not looking. So in honor of this momentous occasion, I would like to list the pros and cons of this milestone:

Pros
1. Charlie has another means of entertaining himself.

Cons
1. Charlie can move by himself.
2. At some point during sleep Charlie positions himself in the corner of his crib (evidenced by the above photo) despite me placing him in the center, and then wakes up horribly upset and screaming as if to say, "How dare you put me face down IN THE CORNER! You are such a jerk!" At least now I know that when he gets older putting him in the corner may actually be an effective punishment.
3. He tries to roll over during diaper changes. Poopy bum plus rolling. Need I say more?
