Standing Man

Hunter has mastered the art of standing, and now that's all he wants to do. He pulled himself up to stand for the first time two Sundays ago. He's even cruising a bit too. Oh. . . and climbing the stairs. We're heading into dangerous waters people. Before long this boy will be walking. Then what will I do?

As for crawling, some progress is being made, but for the most part Hunter is partial to the army crawl/the worm for his main source of transport. We're fine with that. In fact an older lady at church came up to me and said, "Your son crawls the same way ours did. Don't you let ANYBODY tell you he won't be a bright boy if he doesn't learn to crawl the real way. Our son never did, and now he's 25 and getting top scores in all his college courses!" I thanked the nice church lady for her words of wisdom, but I already knew Hunter is a bright boy. The brightest nine-month-old I know.
