Stupid milestones

When I was pregnant with Noah I signed up to several baby sites...when I put in his birth date they started sending me emails saying....your 2 week old baby and what it should be doing.  I got one today...your 16 week old baby.  I opened it and in it was saying your baby might start crawling soon.  That really got me because I know Noah won't be attempting anything like that soon.  He can sit up for a few seconds unaided and is incredibly strong so I'm sure he'll be doing it for longer soon.  But he won't be crawling as for him there is no need.  He can't see his toys so he won't make any attempt to get to them.  I am trying to teach him to roll over but when I do and he is on his tummy he just lays there and then gets annoyed and starts yelling.

He's not gonna hit most of the normal milestones and most of the time I have accepted that....but today it was just something else to rip my heart out.
