Yeah, I know, of course he is. But I didn’t realize it. I think it’s because I’m around him all of the time. I forgot how he was when he was a smaller newborn, especially how he was when he was just born. Sure, he rolled over when he was 2 weeks old, and that was impressive, but he couldn’t smile, laugh, grab his toes, suck his thumb, or do many of the other things he can do now. When he was even younger than that, he was pretty much an 8 lb. 7 oz. blob. He could look around, and he started kicking a few days after he was born, but he couldn’t do much else. He certainly couldn’t interact with people near as much as he can now. One thing he’s started to be able to do is move around on his tummy. He can’t go *very* far, and we don’t let him go off of the bed or anything, but he can definitely get somewhere. That makes me wonder when he’ll be crawling and even walking. I read on the forum I frequent that a few babies were walking at 9 months. I thought, “Wow…that’s only about 6 months away…” assuming that he did walk then. He’ll be 1 year old in less than 9 months. A toddler. Wow.
