Crawling the Floor After You

Everything has changed, again. Now they can crawl. They have joined the mobile society. For weeks they teased us. They would shift from a sitting position to all fours and move a little then sit back up. Or, instead of crawling, they would scoot across the floor on their tummy like little army men. But that was before. Now, they can crawl. Trey Davey has selected a traditional, balanced crawling method utilizing both body sides equally whereas Benji has opted for his own, less conventional, sidewinder crawling technique. He anchors his left leg in a forward position keeping his knee up under his belly while pushing off with his right leg which he keeps well behind him. With his scissoring motion, Benji can move just as fast as Davey, and sweep the floor at the same time.
