  Both of mine seem to be the same as me with motor skills. I walked at 8.5-9m and crawled at 6m. I also waved and did other things like that by 7m. My first word was football when I was 7m. I was potty trained at 1, that is not how DS went. I was allergic to diapers and the old school cloth made me feel icky, according to my mom. so when i started walking she got me a potty and would have me follow her and she would sit on the big potty and have me sit on mine twice an hour. My mom and dad said by one I was good. I still wet at night occasionally until 4 though. DS wasn't potty trained until 3.5 and still had night accidents until about 6months ago.
  DH had inner ear issues and couldn't walk well until he got tubes at 18m. MIL said that DD and DS have done and do things sooner than both of her kids though.
  I have to add that I am a major klutz, I am a very slow runner and look like a complete moron when I do. I am also not athletic, at all. DH did sports all through school, was in the USMC, still workout 5-6 days a week... So early isn't always a good thing. DS seems to be average for athleticism so far.
  I was also really colicky. In hindsight we think it's because I was allergic to the formula and then the cereal they insisted my mom give me at a young age. I am very allergic to rice and too much dairy hurts my tummy.
