Ben's Bridge

The push up seems to be the near universal precursor to crawling. At least all of our kids have developed the talent. It's not really a push up -- it's more of a bridge. Ben uses his new-found talent to rock back and forth, preparatory to ambulating about on his hands and knees.

This pose also allows him to minimize his surface area in contact with the ground beneath him. That'll come in handy should he ever be caught on hot asphalt. He's our little gecko.
