Well, it has begun...

Yesterday I set Art down on the rug in the T.V. room, walked 15 feet to bedroom laundry basket and by the time I had returned he had pulled himself onto the couch. It was like a magic trick or something! Right now I have one eye on him because he is desperately trying to get himself closer to a nearby chair, undoubtedly to pull himself up on it, too. He is SO close to figuring out how to crawl, but he just can't do it yet.
