So Close!


There once was the time when we could set Parker down anywhere, walk away, and know that he would still be in that exact same spot and in the exact same position when we returned. Friends, these days have passed. Parker has mastered rolling, which is his primary mode of transportation, but he’s experimenting with some more interesting strategies. There is the “get up on all fours and try to go forward only to push myself backward” strategy. This generally ends in being stuck underneath something. There is also the “get up on all fours and push with my feet only to do a face plant” strategy. This doesn’t usually end well either. Then there is the ever popular superman pose and the good old lean. Both are staples in Parker's repertoire, but not real effective when the goal is to move. While none of these strategies have proven to be super efficient yet, we’re confident that at some point he will figure out that in addition to pushing with his feet and moving his legs he also has to move his hands in order to crawl forward.
