Crawling Frustrations!!!

Cole and I just got back from a wonderful week in Spokane! Ben had to go to a training in Maryland, so we went home for a visit. We saw a TON of people, which was really nice and even a few who had not yet met Cole, like our good friends, Trish, Scott and Chandra. We were busy, busy, busy. My good friend, Kyndra, had her bachelorette party while we were there so I even got an evening away from Cole while Grandma babysat! This was especially nice because Cole's turning into a BUSY BODY! I cannot emphasize this enough. He's such a wiggle worm and he wants to explore everything. This is where we have a problem...we just want him to crawl already!!!
I know probably 9 out of 10 of you are thinking as you read this "just wait, when he crawls, he'll get into everything and you'll be chasing after him!" That's Fine With Me! It's much better than sitting here listening him grunt and whine because he's trying to crawl and he can't. If I sit him down, 2 seconds later he's on his knees and then 2 seconds after that he's flopped onto his tummy and is stuck. So, then I have to sit him back up and the cycle continues all day long. I think when he finally figures out how to crawl, he's going to be much happier and a little more independent which will give me a much needed break while he plays for a while.
