Is It Wrong . . .
. . . to keep knocking the legs out from a 7 1/2 month old baby?
She has been standing with furniture for a few weeks, and occasionally standing by herself for a few seconds.
She started crawling around 7 months, and really has gotten the hang of it. However, it clearly is not fast enough for her. So, she is looking to furniture cruise.
We really were looking for a bit longer of a time with a stationary baby.

Give her a soccer ball and see if she's ready to re-enact those commercials they made about the champion U.S. woman's team, a few years ago.

Hah! Lots of luck. My grandson is walking at nine months. Little darling, I was changing him this morning; as soon as I slipped his diaper off, he flipped over and took off. I called him back, he walked over to me, put a hand on each side of my head, looked me right in the eyes with a big grin, and peed all over my ready-for-work self.
I am a little surprised the older siblings aren't keeping your youngest from walking, simply by carrying her everywhere and/or knockiing her down. That's how my first two handled their youngest brother.

Actually, I am pretty sure that they are the reason why Princess Pudding Pop wants to walk. She doesn't want to get left behind. It clearly was the reason why Princess Peanut walked at nine moths, in order to keep up with her 2 1/2 year old brother.tlynn78 wrote: I am a little surprised the older siblings aren't keeping your youngest from walking, simply by carrying her everywhere and/or knockiing her down.

The older two are not allowed to carry her, because of their respective sizes. (Though the sight of 40 inch PP holding nearly 30 inch PPP, when we are nearby, is hilarious.)
Plus, the Boy will never knock down his sister, not with it being his "fault" that she's in our family.

Hoping that you were changing diapers on teh floor, and not a changing table. (Albeit the latter would be an impressive feat by your grandson.)tlynn78 wrote: Hah! Lots of luck.

Thankfully, I only got "hit" once by The Boy, right after his belated snip, when he was not yet used to the tickling breeze.

My great-grandson is doing that at 5 months.

My baby sister Lizbit could walk when she was three days old. I didn't even have to teach her.
She still can't read, though.

Hey, everyone here is entitled to brag about their kids (I'd brag about MarleysNephew more, but second-hand brags aren't quite the same.)peacock2121 wrote: Made me laugh as well - marley doing a tiny smack down.

But we can have some fun with it, too.

BTW, Appa23, very nice group photo as your new avatar! Your son looks very intellectual with his new glasses. When did he get those?

Not that I'm implying that Jack is a nerd. He's a well-rounded student athlete, by all account.
