I declare today the day that Julia stood alone. She has stood alone a bit before today, but this was pretty solid and a longer duration. Each time she let go of me, she stood for a bit and then would take a couple of steps towards me. They were sort of the falling into me steps, but pretty exciting nonetheless. She signed “more” asking to do this repeatedly. Kayla got in on the action and wanted Julia to walk towards her too. Mostly it ended up in one giant hug but super sweet it was. The photo is of Julia before she turned herself around to sit on the potty. That is her new thing lately too. She won’t do it diaperless, but seems to be having fun with the maneuvering around to get to sitting on it more than really understanding what a potty is for.
