Almost standing...

Dear Nicky,

Twice today you did this thing where you got on all fours and extended your legs so your butt was way up high. This really looks like a precursor to standing to me. I think you're concentrating all your efforts on this. Your cold seems better today. Your spirits have been good all week . Your eating has been so-so and your self-feeding with a utensil is way behind, I'm afraid. Hopefully, once you achieve what you want to achieve with your gross motor, self-feeding will improve. Granny came over today for a while. You and Mom might see her again this weekend. Better you than me. Just joking, little buddy! Or am I...?

Love,
Dad
