Backwards is the only way....?

Well I'm nine months now so it's time to get on the move. I have always been particularly active moving around the cot as I am getting to sleep but now I want to start keeping up with the big kids. So I have decided to give this crawling thing a go. Let me tell you it is not as easy as it seems...for some reason I can only go backwards?

Unfortunately, because I can only go backwards, I keep ending up stuck under things. Its okay though - Dad saves me :)
