On the move...or not

I was beginning to think that Jed was going to skip the stage where he would just sit and stay in one spot and play with toys around him. I thought this because he's been rolling and scooting for a couple months now and really getting good and mobile. Lately, he's even been getting up on his knees and rocking like he's getting ready to take of and crawl. He's also become so good at scooting that I'll put him down in one spot and a few minutes later, he has scooted all the way back to me in another room. Here are a couple videos of Jed's mobility:


However, I was getting a little worried because Jed was able to move and scoot but not able to sit up by himself yet...until last week. I started to set him down sitting up instead of on his belly so he could practice balancing, and I guess it worked. Jed will now sit up and play in one spot for several minutes. It's a nice break for me right now! I'm glad he didn't skip this stage because I needed a little break from all the action. Maybe Jed feels the same...until he starts crawling!
