Crawling

Eli has finally started crawling! I was really starting to think it wasn't going to happen then Monday evening he just wiggled his butt and went right across the livingroom floor. Now he wants to be down all the time, makes me miss my little baby who always wanted me to hold him. I know I swore I'd never say that. He turned 8 months old yesterday, just 4 months shy of a year and I'm constantly marveling at how fast it's gone. I feel like I'm going to blink and he'll be heading out the door to college. Not calling or visiting, only coming home to do laundry and grocery shop out of the kitchen cupboards.
