More standing

This afternoon was a concert at Claire's school, all the older children got to sing songs to family and friends. Mom, Dad and Claire went to listen, she enjoyed waving her arms like she was directing. Every day she gets more confidence in standing; usually she pulls up on a table or sofa and then stands. She is starting to use smaller objects and toys to stand up, using more of her own strength to stand.  Before we know it she won't have to use anything to stand up....

The step between the living room and family room is Claire's favorite place to sit.

She has been using one toy to bang against another toy to make noise. She did the same trick later in the evening using a hard plastic toy on daddy's head.
