Don't worry Mom, he won't be retarded

Mom is convinced that Maddox was going to have to wear a helmet and ride the short bus if he did not learn how to crawl. I kept telling her that Maddox was just going to skip crawling. He is obsessed with pulling himself up on everything and then lets go and balances for about 30 seconds before falling down and starting the whole process over again. So here is video evidence that Maddox is crawling and that both hemispheres of his brain are working properly.



The first one has a bit of a shadow so here is another one just in case Mom decides I used a stunt baby to placate her fears.







This, however, may prove Mom right. This is a game we like to play where I take a soft soccer ball and bounce it off Maddox's face. He loves every minute of it.










Think of it as early training on how to head a soccer ball. Use your forehead kid, not your face.
