Standing Up

Robyn loves standing up. She moves to a piece of Robyn-height furniture and props herself to her knees, then with a wobble or two pokes her little bottom outward and extends her knees and finally works her feet forward, standing! She stands up in her crib when she wakes up in the morning. She crawls to her igloo toy and stands up next to the mailbox. She inches across the bedroom carpet past her toys and stands up by the bedside to see Daddy keeping one eye open for baby danger. She crawls across the office to a Robyn-sized space under the desk and stands up until she almost hits her head. She tries to stand up using the pug, but pugs move sometimes. At Grandma's house, she stands next to the video case, the ottoman, and the chairs and stools. At church, she stands on the ground by the pew, but has to watch out for bonks. She climbs up Daddy's nice shirt to stand up, but usually ends up high centered on his shoulder instead of standing on anything.

What a stander!
