Nope, I didn't create the "Jumping Jelly Jean" name for my blog because my son loves to jump. It's just a coincidence that the blog's name and his favourite activity is jumping. I chose "Jumping Jelly Jean" because of the three Js and it rhymes with "jumping jelly beans".
Back to Zhi. He loves to jump. For whatever reasons I do not know. But I guess its because he's been put on the exersauce when he's 6 months old. The exersauce is like a walker but without wheels. And it allows the baby to rotate 360 degrees and also jump (you'll see that in the first part of the video).
There are times he refuse to sit and want us to carry him so he can jump about. He really loves to jump and we love to see him jump. Its cute. But sometimes I wonder if it is good for his developments. Now at 8 months, he doesn't really know how to crawl. Instead, he's crawling backwards (just like Ning)! He gets cranky whenever we put him on his stomach and urge him to try crawling.
I hope he'll start to crawl soon. So that he'll be more mobile and less dependent.
Anyway, here's a short clip of him jumping on two different occasions.

my neighbour's 6 mth old boy loves to jump too! his legs are amazingly strong! while all the adults were conked out towards the end of the night, he was still happily jumping on his mom's thighs. *faint*
for all u know, zhi might bypass the crawl stage and learn to walk straight away! :)
I was thinking he'll pass the crawling stage too.
But I would love to have him learn how to crawl. Crawling improves one's motor skills (using all four hands and limbs at the same time). And also the brain functions differently when all your fours at in a movement and coordinating.
