Caught in the Act

It's been tricky trying to catch Lyla doing some of her new tricks but I was able to catch this one while I was in the kitchen and she and Parker were playing in the family room. It's the highest I've seen her get up and I wanted to shout from the rooftops after it happened. She gets up from the splits, which isn't ideal in the PT world but we are thrilled. We are working on getting her used to getting up from the side and getting down that way as well, but for now we are just happy that she can do this:
She doesn't stay up for very long and is dependent on her hands for balance, but it's so wonderful! She has also, a handful of times, gotten up on her knees and hands! Last month she wasn't able to push up on her hands; she only could get up on her elbows. It's exciting to see her in the crawling position! She does all kinds of movements with her body which are really cool to watch. Hopefully I can start catching her doing these things. Oh, and she's clapping her hands. I'm pretty sure it's unintentional, but it's super cute. She usually does some sort of tapping, mostly with her thumb. But this past week it's been her hands. Love it.

And this happened the other day


This never happened to Parker or Mabel
