I've got a....

CRAWLER!!  Stephen crawled all by himself for the first time yesterday during our weekly physical therapy session!!  Yippe!!! He crawled about 6 "steps" all by himself.  Slowly but surely our little guy is going to become more independent.  He stills needs some assistance with the transition from sitting to crawling and back up again, but I can really tell he's on the verge of doing it himself.  We just need to get him doing it a lot more.  Practice, practice, practice.  Although the little bugger freaks out whenever I put him down on his tummy, but shows off every time his therapist comes to work with him.  I guess it's a parent thing.

Here's a pic from yesterday afternoon practicing after therapy

    It's so encouraging to see his progress from last Summer to this Spring. What a difference -- Way to go Stephen!
