Tyler is thrilled with the idea of standing and walking. He's not ready to do the latter without some assistance, but he sure loves to pull himself up to a standing position. He's never really loved crawling but he still does it when he wants to get into something. As a little baby Tyler was really early to hold his head up on his own. He was always so curious and nosy. Things haven't changed much there and I figure the strong desire to stand up is just a natural extension of that curiosity and his personality.
Earlier this week he was seated next to his exersaucer. He moved up to his knees, then reached up, put his fingers around the lip edge of the exersaucer and pulled himself to his feet. He stood holding it with one hand and banging the attached toys with the other. Tyler was having such a good time that he started rocking the whole thing and it nearly tipped over on top of him except that Mommy was able to avert danger with some fast hands.
But by far Tyler's most favorite activity is to pull himself up onto his swings and then bounce up and down as it sways from side to side.
