Ian is Standing

Just this past week Ian has mastered standing. It seems everything is happening very fast all the sudden... I think about all the changes in Ian this past month and I am awed by my child. Shortly after he began crawling he started pulling himself up on things like the side of the bathtub where he could hook his arms and get leverage. But this week he suddenly started pulling himself up on everything with ease. I have also noticed he is starting to think about taking steps while he is up there. Yesterday I saw him reach down to the ground and pick something up that he had dropped without losing his balance. He also supports himself by leaning his belly against the coffee table so that he can use both of his hands. Amazing!! I bet his is walking before the month is up!
