Apparently, nobody told Jakjak about the sequence of things. Sure, Jakjak learned to turn over from lying down. Which caused us extreme panic as he found it fun to roll over and over and fall off the bed. The second time he fell off, we decided it was not normal anymore and kept him in the crib even if he did not like it very much.
So, roll over, check. Next step, crawl. And crawl he did. Awkwardly at first. Falling face flat on the bed during the first few weeks. It's due to the fact (we reckon), that Jakjak has a big head which probably caused the imbalance. Of course, it never stopped him from learning and making crawling one of the fastest ways to get around the room.
Alright, crawl, check. Next step, sitting down. Now this is the part that nobody told Jakjak about. Because in the days that followed, Jakjak learned how to hoist himself up on his crib by grabbing the railings and pulling himself up. From there, he studied how to balance himself on two feet. And soon enough, he could move, he could walk. And even though he fell and bumped his head a number of times, it never stopped him from learning. Probably because he had something in mind ... like moving about to grab things that tickles his fancy (which is just about everything, actually).
So, walk, check. And then he finally learned to sit down.
