Ezra’s crawling all over the place now (9 1/2 months)! I was afraid that he, like Judah, never would because he was so interested in walking, but he figured it out! When Judah was little, I always worried, even though I knew that I shouldn’t, because he just wouldn’t crawl, so I was hoping that Ezra would, so I wouldn’t feel like I was somehow a deficient mother. So now I don’t feel guilty but I do have to remove and replace the gate every time I go up- or down- stairs. Be careful what you wish for….
