Well, Quin's finally done it. He's now officially mobile.

For the last two months Quin has been desperately trying to figure out how to crawl. But the best he could do was to get on all fours and rock back and forth, grunting the whole way. A couple weeks ago he got a little closer by figuring out how to move his knees. But then he would just do a face plant once his knees and hands got too close together.

Yesterday he finally got all the right parts moving. While playing on our bed he just went for it and crawled right across to the other side, much to our delight as we watched. Then we put him on the floor and he started crawling in circles. Since he first did it, he hasn't forgotten the fact that he can for one second. He's been all over the place ever since.

We captured some of his first moments crawling on video and now it's available below.

Of course since this was one of his early attempts, he's improved dramatically just in the last 24 hours. He's no speed demon yet, but give him a week....

Other accomplishments in the last week include: clapping, waving hello and goodbye, and getting from a crawling position to a sitting position.
