Practicing Standing

Eliana has not seemed to have much interest in crawling but this week has been very interested in pulling up to standing when holding our hands.  Today we got out a toy given to us by some friends and Drew put her hands on the top of the toy and let go and she stood by herself...for quite a long time too.  She even moved down one side and transferred her hands to the other side.  It was really amazing.  Who knows?  Maybe she'll skip crawling and go straight to walking?  She's still a long way from that but it's a start!


Here are some pictures and a little video at the end.  I stopped the video right before she transferred to the other side of the toy unfortunately.  You can get the drift though! Such a big girl!
