Crawling and Standing

Leilani pulled herself up to a standing position yesterday. She lost balance the second she was up, and I caught her, but she did the rest by herself! She still doesn’t crawl the official way, on hands and knees, but she can make it across the room in about 30 seconds now in a forward motion. She gets up on hands and knees, but either she doesn’t know how to balance, or her muscles don’t support the weight if one arm is in the air, so she uses different techniques arms up or hips up or creeping. It’s hard to explain, I hope to post a movie of it shortly.
I finished (I think) child proofing the playroom this morning at 4:30 am.
