Sitting is like riding a bicycle, it seems. Once you get it, you’ve got it for life. Nora’s been doing quite a bit of sitting since mastering the ability a week ago. She does still fall down eventually, but she’s gone for at least fifteen minutes a couple times. Yesterday she was looking so adorable in her long-sleeved flowery blouse and purple corduroy dress that I had to record a video of her sitting up. The trick, I learned after three takes, was for me to be down on the floor behind the camera making goofy faces. When I hit stop on the camera, my neck was killing me.

A couple of times she saves herself by holding on to the mat. That is a high level skill. . . and who hasn’t fallen over laughing?

Also, she’s just now started putting a hand out in the direction that she’s falling to catch herself and push herself back up. Her parents are very proud of her.
