Hurdle position

Why does Maddy always sit in the hurdle position? Most kids sit on both knees or both legs out. She almost always sits with one leg out and one leg back. Just odd.

Sitting up

She is rocking the sitting up thing. She has gotten so strong. She's able to play and do so much more now. I love sitting her up in front of her mobiles and watch her grab for them.

Sitting up so well

Tonight, we had Maddy on the floor and she was sitting up like a pro! So amazing how fast she she got that figured out. Now I know that she's been working on that for a long time. But, from the time we tried it on Friday to today, she nailed it. Wow.

Since she's sitting up so well, it opens up a whole new world of toys for her. I have a ton of stuff for "sitters". I've actually brought out all the cool stuff. She loves them all. She just cracks me up with how happy she gets when she sees the new toys. I love it.

Sitting up and Stretching

I think tonight at dinner was the first time I saw her stretch sitting up. Usually I see her stretch while she is laying down – just waking up. But tonight, she put her two little arms up besides her and slightly arched her back and then put her arms back down again. It was just too cute.
