Tonight after Carly rode her tricycle complete around our neighborhood loop (0.8 miles), David came home to show off just how speedy he can be. Over the past few days he has been scooting or army crawling through our family room, well tonight he decided to pick up his belly and GO! This method of traveling is quicker for him and he is proud of it. He has also become quite accomplished in going from a crawling position to a sitting position, and will applaud himself for such an accomplishment (Carly actually applauded herself on this accomplishment too at this age).
David is also taking a much greater interest in pulling himself up and standing up. While walk is still quite a ways off, I think he is interested on beginning to work towards this skill. A handful of times he pushed himself off from my hands or another object while standing, would stand for a second, then plop down on his bottom. Fussing would then commence because he was sitting and no longer standing.
David's ability to move quicker now, desire to stand and pull up, and his LOVE for all cords and cables is going to make life quite interesting now. Thankfully, Carly loves to give me a play-by-play of EVERYTHING her brother is doing - so he can't get into too much mischief at the moment.
