i am getting stronger & more confident about standing up. often, as i am playing, i just stand straight up, without pulling on anything. one time i even stood up & danced with elmo. that made mommy laugh a lot, but she didn't have time to video me. :( i know it's hard for mommy to catch this on camera because sometimes i feel like doing it, & sometimes i would rather just play in the floor. but today, i even took five tiny steps all by myself! every day, i get a little closer to walking!
