What a Difference a Week Made...

...168 little hours. Last week, Anders started trying to stand up on his own.  He actually did a little better than in this video, but we were never ready with the camera when he was at his best.

A mere 7 days later, he has progressed to this...

What is interesting is, without the blackberry in his hand, he only stands for a moment before getting so proud of himself that he laughs and throws himself into my arms.  I don't think it will be long before I have a video of him taking steps. It is all confidence.  He could do it now if he really wanted to try it.  When he walks holding our hands, he is pretty darn steady.
