Vacation repost! Mama Natural and family are on holiday, so we’re bringing back this sweet little chestnut from when Griffy D was just getting his move on. Enjoy!
At what age do babies start crawling? Well, as you’ll see in this video, it depends. Does slithering across the carpet constitute crawling? Does the wounded solder crawl count? Or is the elevated speed crawl the only answer?
Here’s Griffin from six and a half to eight and a half months going through all the crawling milestones and stages.

When we did Mama Natural Show #20 about breakfast cereals, I was amazed to see how many of you loved making oatmeal for breakfast. It was the family favorite bar none.
Since Griffin’s eating more solids, I’ve been experimenting with warm nourishing breakfast cereals, and of course oatmeal has played a part.
I’ll be honest; I’m not the biggest fan of the grain. It’s decent but I can think of other yummy alternatives like sprouted corn blueberry waffles or a coconut smoothie.
But, after much tinkering, I’ve stumbled upon a way to raise oatmeal from regular breakfast fare to an absolutely divine treat.
