Robert Nicholas Long, week 32 - All hell breaks loose!

He's standing! Robert learned several new tricks this week and is unstoppable.


It started out as kneeling with support...


Then kneeling unsupported...


Then Robert, with the instincts of a master showman, waited till both of his parents were at home and with the camera within reach to perform his big trick for the first time.


Now, Robert's popping up all over.


He discovered stairs, too.


Here we see him after managing to wriggle into the bottom of the exersaucer. He was kind of concerned about how to get out... then determined... then hopeful...


and finally, pleased with himself when he succeeded.


Some more athletics.


This would be a really sweet series of pictures if he didn't have one of mom's big long hairs stuck to his damp chin. I tried to select pictures that de-emphasized the hair.
