After spending the last few days with a rather fussy, annoyed baby (really, he's a great kid...) I finally gave in and got him a walker. I came to the conclusion a while ago that Eli was never going to crawl. NOW, I could be wrong. Tomorrow morning he could wake up and just decide to do it, but judging from his hatred of being on his belly, and his refusal to get up on his hands and knees (honest! Ask Jennifer!) I think he's decided crawling is not for him. Now walking, on the other hand, is all he wants to do. Unfortunately (for my back) that requires someone to help him. He can't walk on his own yet...but he wants to so bad. He's been so frustrated lately that he can't move. If someone is not walking with him, he's mad. (Now...he does still play while sitting...he doesn't just cry all day :) though sometimes it feels like that...) Anyway, today I had...well...a day. I don't know why I was so easily agitated today, but everything seemed to set me off. (REALLY, WHY is a car seat so hard to install?!?!?!?!?!) Jennifer was watching Eli and mentioned that he was fussy unless you were walking him, and I just decided then and there he needed a walker. So I put the car seat back in my car, wiped the sweat off my face, and we headed to Target.
This happened:
And I have my happy baby back :)
