Friday Cate: Stand in the place where you live

Cate hasn’t yet mastered the fine art of getting to a sitting position from lying on her back. But that’s not really what she’s interested in. She is interested in only one thing. She wants to … stand. Stand! Stand! Stand! If she’s sitting, she will attempt to pull herself up to a standing position using nearly any object – some of which won’t support her weight.

But Cate’s toy basket is heavy enough!

Cate can’t decide whether to hold on for support or grab a toy!

Soon, we’ll have to move anything that we have on coffee tables and low shelves. I’ll also have to put up a lot of my electronic stuff, since Cate seems to have inherited my fascination with anything that runs by electricity. She already “cruises” down the edge of the couch to find my laptop computer.

But I look forward to the time we have to toddler-proof the house. I enjoy seeing Cate gain more control of herself and her world.
