You Have to Learn to Stand On Your Own Two Feet

Thomas has definitely reached a new landmark. He's standing. Sure, sure, he's been doing that for awhile. But he's always held on, even if it was just with a stray fingernail from his pinky, he was touching something.

And now, he's letting go. And standing. Even better, he can wobble and keep himself righted.

He's quite proud of himself.

And well he should be. He's only 11 months old and has learned to stand upright. There are plenty of animals that have been around much longer that can't quite master it (really, would it be sooooo impressive when the circus elephants stand up on hindlegs if every tiger, goat, or ferret were doing it?)

So, to Thomas... standing on his own two feet. Mommy and Daddy are quite proud!

Go, Thomas, go!!! Uh, wait a minute, not that far, no wait, that's a stair step there, uh, uh, OUCH that must have hurt, son.

Well, at least's a mobile asset now.
