A couple weeks ago, Mason couldn't pull himself to stand. I tried holding his hands to let him walk around, and he would get so excited after one step that he would pick up his legs and start kicking.
And then one day about two weeks ago that all changed. Literally it was an overnight change, like when he finally decided to crawl (or scoot rather). He started pulling himself up to stand whenever he could, and he LOVES walking around holding our hands. Sometimes when I'm sitting next to him on the couch he even stands so he can get right in my face, or in the middle of whatever I'm doing.
Sometimes he can sit himself back down, but most of the time he yells at me when he needs help getting down. Sometimes he falls straight down, and sometimes he ends up falling to the side and rolling. If he's tired he crys, and if he isn't tired he usually just rolls with it.
At first he was unsteady on his feet, but in just a few short weeks his balance has improved significantly. How fast he grows!
Here are a few photos of him on the porch, shouting at the occasional passer-by.
