Since we went to Luke's four month check-up, his pediatrician recommended that we work on getting him to sit up on his own. I'm pretty sure that Luke is a fairly independent kid and, much like his mother, wants to know what's going on with
everything. He would much rather be standing up where he can see all the action than be forced to sit on the ground. This hasn't made his practice sessions easy, so I came up with the solution of practicing first on the couch around pillows and cushions to help protect him. (Don't worry, I'm with him the entire time and will not leave him up there unattended!) This is how he's doing so far:
Leaning a smidge to the left...
...now to the right...
...centered with some help...
...gave up trying so he could blow bubbles...
...and then found his toes. Practice session over.
This is our typical practice session, but he is getting much better at sitting up without my help. He's getting so big and strong!
