Zoom Around the Room

Army-crawler

My 9-month-old grandson can get anywhere he wants to go,

The other day he climbed a two-step ladder just like a pro,

He has a unique style of crawling that is so intriguingly fast,

In a baby crawling contest, he would not come in last,

He crawls on his elbows and feet, with ease,

Like a solider at boot-camp, not hands-and-knees,

He pulls up on everything and cruises furniture in the room,

But on his belly, he can zoom, zoom, zoom!

It won’t be long before he will take his first steps…

 Army-style crawling, toddling then walking,

Then running and jumping and talking!

The milestones are many, and he is about to reach a few,

With four tiny teeth already in view,

He is a sweet, sweet boy with the biggest blue eyes,

And even though he is only pint-sized,

Today he waved at me when I said “Hi”!

Growing up fast, (Gigi sigh),
