A couple of weeks ago we thought Ryan was going to have the whole ‘hold up your head’ thing figured out by now. But then he goes and gains 4 pounds which makes his head heavier….actually, we got a bit lazy with letting him practice holding up his head. And for some reason, he really has come to dislike being on his belly.
We have been able to get in a bit of head lifting exercises but his real strength is in his legs. Unfortunately, I don’t think he will ever be very good at crawling as he hates lying on his front. I think he just gets frustrated that he can’t life himself. It really sounds like he stresses out when he can’t lift his head.
After saying all of this – here are some successful pictures of him lifting his head.

 But, I prefer a pillow |
 I can lift my head…see! |
