Dexter is Cruising!

No matter what your definition, Dexter is now officially a cruising baby. :)

He is 7.5 months old, and last night, he cruised down the length of the ottoman (maybe 4 feet). Tonight, he successfully cruised from the ottoman to the sofa.

I still wouldn't say it's a skill he's mastered, exactly - he's still pretty wobbly - but since it took him all of about 3 days to master pulling up, I think we'll just call this good.

His other new trick is holding up his arms when he wants to be picked up. It's pretty darned cute.

In any case, we can only hope he takes a little break from all of this motor development to work on other things like "mama," "baba," "dada," waving bye-bye, and clapping. I am not holding my breath on that one.
