Look! Taten Can Stand!

Taten learned to stand up all by himself today. Standing comes before walking right? He stood up several times before I ran to get the camera. I hoped that he would try again so I could catch it on tape. Hurray! Taten can stand! He will also walk short distances with one hand held but usually prefers to crawl. If you hold both hands he holds his legs straight out off the ground. He will not be forced to do anything he doesn't want to do. Does he sound like his dad? Speaking of Dad...Dave deserves the gold star award for Dads. Thur-Saturday of last week was day camp for the cub scouts. I am the wolf den leader and so was recruited to attend all three days. I thought day 1 would be the easiest for Dave since Taten would not realize how long I would be gone. I got home at 10:30 PM expecting to find Dave and Taten asleep. But Dave and Taten were stripped down to their underwear, the sheets had been taken off the bed, and the washing machine was going. Taten had thrown up 4 times in the hour before I got home. Dave was calm and collected and had everything under control. I felt so bad that they were still awake, since Dave had work early the next morning.
