sittin' around

Indiana has mastered the skill of sitting up unsupported (that pillow behind him is because he is up on my bed and he does occasionally get excited and THROWS his whole body backwards... I don't want baby splattered on the floor on the other side of the bed). To those without children, this new skill IS more exciting than it sounds. He also has figured out how to get into a sitting position without my help! He wants so much to be walking. He loves the "hunch-back" walking (the one where you hold his hands, hunch over, and let him take safe steps with his arms up over his head). When I have him standing in his crib holding onto the rails he tries to cruise sideways, but when he has to move his hands, he invariably topples over. All this at Just six months old. I miss the cuddles already.
