Last night after evening church, a bunch of the kids where helping Luke to sit up. It was precious! The were sitting in a circle around him so that they could give him a little boost if he leaned in one direction or the other! He actually did some sitting up on his own, and has done a little more today. I have noticed, however, that if he gets particularly excited about a toy and begins to shake it, he is prone to throwing himself over backwards!
The newest development occurred today at his early afternoon nap. I put him down around 12:30 and around 12:40, I heard him crying. I recognized it as the cry that says "Hey, I'm really tired and willing to go to sleep, but I have flipped myself over and now don't know what to do." I peeked in to see if that was in fact the case. It was not. Instead, Luke was standing (yes, in a sleep sack) holding on to the edge of the crib. The reason for the familiar cry was the fact that he was not sure how to get back down! Once I laid him down and tucked him back in, he fell off to sleep, and I called Matt to inform him that we would definitely need to lower the mattress tonight!
P.S. I actually got a short video of this last acrobatic feat, so if I can figure out how to post video to the blog, I will share it.
