Standing on his own |
[posted by Nat] |
Although he doesn't quite get it, Benjamin can now stand without any support. For 1 to 20 seconds. This happens when he is holding a toy in each hand or at least something in one hand and is focused on what is happening around him or what he wants to grab with his free hand. As soon as he realizes he is standing without support, he collapses to the ground.
Today we went to visit our neighbor who was painting with a toddler she takes care of. They were sitting under a tree putting the finishing touches on a painting when we arrived. I held Benjamin's hands and he walked around in the grass. Then he found a stick. He let go of one of my hands and leaned down to grab the stick and started walking around with it, waving it. At some point he stopped walking around and I gently slipped my other hand out of his fist and there he stood, admiring his stick and showing it off.
