Will has seemed to be close to crawling for a couple of weeks - he would get on all fours and rock back and forth, but then just sit back on his bottom.  Mom and Dad were in town for the weekend, and Mom and I were playing with the kids in Claire's room.  Will was doing his rocking thing, so Mom and I were putting toys out of his reach to try to entice him to crawl.  Claire joined in - she ran and got his some of his favorite toys, lined them up across her floor, then sat behind the line motioning with her hands and urging him on - "Cwawl, Will!  Cwawl!!!"
 
He was more interested in his bib initially.
 
It seemed like he might get going...
 
...but got distracted by the stuffed rabbit.
 
At one point, I thought he was just mocking her.
 
The effort tuckered him out.
 
The practice must have helped, because he started crawling the next day.
