B is pulling up!

B is a lot faster with the physical things than our other kids have been. He's been army crawling for a long time, and recently switched to the traditional hands-and-knees mode (although he'll revert to the army crawl when he's really in a hurry!). The biggest difference is that he's been pulling up for over a month now. I clearly remember posing T for a picture on the eve of his first Christmas, so he would have bee exactly eight months old, and he could sit up but I had to take the picture quickly because he was still wobbly. So to have a baby not eight months old yet start pulling up was a shocker to me. I know some kids even walk as early as eight months, but mine don't!

He loves to pull up but has only managed to get himself down twice. His preferred method is to start yelling when he's tired of standing. Works every time, especially since when he first started this trick, he fell over more often than not once he was on his feet. I'm glad that at least he doesn't fall over everytime he pulls up anymore. In these pics he is standing under the "craft table", one of his favorite places to pull up.
