4 weeks old

This was Dominic yesterday, at 4 weeks of age:


And this was the day before, with Dominic enjoying some time on his stomach.



He can now lift his head up for about 12 seconds, and if you give him something to push off (like your hand) he can 'commando crawl' a couple of feet. He tries to hook his toes in to the ground, but hasn't quite sorted that out yet. This is a good thing, since as soon as he does get his toes sorted he'll be able to propel himself all over the place if he's ever on his tummy. He can't roll over yet, so we're safe for a while, but we're already looking at the house and pondering how big a job baby-proofing it is going to be.

HOw gorgeous! and how cute to think of a little commando Dominic making his way around. He is changing so fast and looks so much older - a lot more than the two weeks since we last saw him!

Commando crawling is quite a cute concept - though it looks a little less Arnie and a bit more Wheelbarrow in practice. It's like he's trying to plow the floor with his forehead :-)
