I am not ready to chase a 7 months old around! Max is crawling. He is crawling out of the bedroom, crawling into the bathroom, crawling to the plant and spreading mud around the floor. He can transition from crawling to sitting and back. I remember just that transition along probably took Jake a year in therapy to obtain. The human brain is so complicated that a little off, your whole life is messed up...
My husband is always thinking how do we bring up Max so that he will grow up to be a loving brother to Jake, and will want to take on the responsibility of over seeing Jake's care when we are not able to. We sometimes joke around and tell Max that he was born into huge responsibilities, but all jokes aside, it will be Max's choice. Our job is it to teach him to be a compassionate and responsible individual, and the choice will be his to make.
hold on.. he is crawling into the bathroom again!
OK, I am back. Max and Jake are starting to interact with each other. Actually most of the time it is Max who is interested in what Jake is doing, and not the other way around. It will be cute in the coming months to see the two of them playing together, but sadly for Jake, Max will soon surpass him in all areas of development.
I really want to go on a vacation, but with 2 kids, one disabled and a 7 months old, plus I have to work, vacation doesn't seem possible in the near future. Maybe I will just settle for a long nap.....
