ONE CUTE GRANDSON
Rylan is changing so quickly and growing up so fast. We know this
because, since he was born, we have seen him five times! Considering
he lives
400
miles away and is not yet eight months old we feel quite fortunate. ![](images/videoconf.jpg)
To visit, see, and enjoy Rylan even more we video conference with Kathy,
Tim and Rylan often. Besides being the next best thing to being there,
seeing Rylan through video over the internet is pretty awesome.
Each
time we see him, whether in person
or
on the
big
screen, he is a
little
more independent,
a little more into the world around him, a little bigger and a lot cuter.
On our last video conference just a few days ago, he sat up
on his own for the very first time! Right on camera! Not just once
but three times in a row. He has been sitting up for some time of course,
but always when "put" into a sitting position. This time he went from
crawling, stopping, turning back to look at something then rolling himself
up
so he was sitting! Just like he had been doing it for days. What is
funny is that he didn't even realize what he had done.
About a week ago, he started
crawling on his knees. For a few weeks previous to this, he
was doing an army man crawl wherein he
pulled himself
along on his tummy putting his hands out in front of him to gain ground.
Now he is up on his knees, has become faster and really moves
out. In no time at all, he will be pulling himself up into a standing
position (already does stand with help), walking along
furniture
and
then stepping
out
on
his
own!
