Michael had excellent gross motor skill for a nine-month year old. He could sit independently and roll front to back and back to front. He could sit independently for a couple of minutes and could go from a crawling position to a sitting position. Michael could crawl and hold an object in one hand while he crawled. He had good control and strength of his body when he crawled, and would use his knees to give him a boost. I observed that he could use furniture to prop himself up into a standing position and could stand without support for a couple of seconds. He could go from a standing position to a sitting position too. He was unable to walk independently, but could walk with some support from holding his mom’s hand or holding onto furniture.
