I had never heard this term used before in reference to babies until I had one, but Cruising is when a baby stands up and walks while holding on to something. Like pulling up on the couch and cruising along the front while still holding onto the front of the couch. Chance started cruising yesterday. He pulled up on the bed at the hotel and took a few steps while holding onto the bed. Then when we got back to Mom’s house he cruised all the way
along the front of the couch to get to the box of tissues that were at the other end. These pictures aren’t very good but they show him cruising even if not very far. You can see his arms stretched out to the TV then to the stoolHe pulled himself up on the brown stool then cruised over to the TV (to play with the green light on the front) and then cruised back to the stool after which he promptly fell on his bum. He is a good sport and doesn’t cry when he falls on his bum.
If he goes over sideways he usually cries for just a minute until he realizes he has not horribly injured himself and then gets up and tries whatever he was doing again. He hasn’t hit his head too hard yet but he has come very close many times and I am sure it will happen one day but for now he has absolutely no fear in the falling department. This last picture is just one of him standing up by the couch.
