He's ready for the army

Alex learned to crawl - army crawl - in mid-August.  He started out just reaching for things and stretching and straining to get at them.  At first he would move just a few inches, but within 2 days he was scooting across the floor.  He pulls himself across the floor with his arms and pushes a little with his legs.  He can get around just about anywhere he wants.  He hasn't figured out that if he got onto all fours he could really move fast.  As it is, he's pretty quick.  And he has the rug burn to match - on his arms and knees.

He seems interested in the table and chair legs, but when he crawls under the table, he gets a little stuck.  Instead of rescuing him, his rotten mother just let him work it out for himself and took pictures of the process.
