Moving and grooving

Last night after we put the girls down, Hannah started to cry. B went in to check on her and found her standing up in her crib!!!

This is BIG NEWS.

She's been getting from lying on the floor to kneeling all week and she has also been saying, when I put her in her crib for naps, that she wants to "stand in my crib." I'm not at all surprised that now that she can get up from lying down, she quickly figured out how to pull right up to stand.

It's all part of what's been going on with her lately, which is this quest for independence. She's been trying so hard to get in and out of positions and up and down from furniture. She has the notion in her head and can get her body started on the process to making it happen but she often needs help executing.

But last night she obviously didn't need any help at all. And then this morning when B went in to get her, she had pulled her pajama bottoms all the way down to her knees and told him she was trying to take them off.

I have so much hope for where she is headed and what she will be able to accomplish. She is growing in leaps and bounds; she's a mover and a groover!
