Climbing, Crawling, Walking and Flying

As you may have seen in video footage, Owen has started crawling ... well, a little ... kinda. He can take a few 'steps' in the proper hands-and-knees position but then he collapses in a heap or puts his head down and drags that along with him. So he's still working on true crawling. But it's only a matter of time now.

He's also a pretty good stander and walker already. He stands on his own for a while until he realizes it and then he sits down or dives forward (and luckily we are there to catch him when he does that!). He loves to walk around everywhere with our help and it scares me a little how close he probably is to walking already!

And to top it all off he is also working on flying. He is constantly putting his arms straight out in front of him or up above his head like he is ready to take off like Superman. (We think he is trying to reach things that are very, very far away but his go-go-gadget arms aren't cooperating.)
