Liz and i were reading "What To Expect The First Year" and reading up on what Schuyler is supposed to be doing so we can begin the process of measuring her against other people's standards and then judging her and ourselves on that basis so that eventually we break her spirit completely and cause ourselves to drink heavily (we really have to stop reading the 'Milestones' section of that book - it is no good for us or her).
Anyway, it said that she should be able to crawl by now and, despite Grampa Flip's classes on the 'commando crawl' ("keep your butt down, this is live ammo!"), Schuyler's attempts at crawling were non-starters - just kicking frantically against nothing. I told Schuyler "you got two days, kid!" and she took it to heart. On New Year's Eve, she finally crawled - commando style, just like Flip taught her. This is mainly an upper body activity for her as she drags her sizeable mass around but she can move!
In case that thrilling video was not enough for you, here is another brief video of her crawling to and subsequently demolishing a toy tower.
