Toby has become quite a stander. He stands in the middle of the room just waving his little arms. How throwing all that weight around doesn’t make him keel over I don’t know. Then he’ll squat down, pick something up, and stand again. Often he likes to stand at the coffee table, then shuffle his way around trying to reach whatever objects we’ve inadvertently left within reach. I feel that really he is just helping us to center the objects on the coffee table by measuring their distance from all four sides. Admittedly, I could do without his new tendency to stand up in his crib at all hours of the night. Though that may be because middle of the night standing is accompanied by loud crying. If we could get him to just stand there quietly, twiddling his thumbs, it would perfect. Somehow I don't imagine that’s next on his milestone docket, but a girl can still dream.
