Shelley will be jealous she missed it... but our boy finally got up from a sitting position on his own! He's got a little stepstool that our therapist Krista said we should help him push up on. Last night I helped him a couple times, but he struggled... yet just now, he was sitting and playing and started throwing his toys away—the sign he's ready to get up. So I just sat the stool down beside him, and he turned, pushed himself up, and up he went! It's funny to watch him do it... he's kind of like a decrepit old man, but in a cute way. Anyway the smile on his face once he was up was priceless! He's very proud of himself and some of the new abilities he's finding.
He's also been waving—a lot—the past couple days. At 16 months old, he's pretty far behind some of his friends (little Simon at the party yesterday, he's only 10 months and can get up and down pretty easily). But he's catching up, slowly. And it makes me a happy daddy.
