yesterday morning gavin was playing on a blanket on the floor and i looked down and he was sitting! he’s been sitting for a while when you put him in a sitting position, but that’s the first time he got himself in a sit all on his own.today he pushed himself to a sit twice in an hour or two and these shots are of him sitting on of those times. he seems pretty proud of himself.

for those wondering about the mechanics: he gets on his hands and knees, then pushes himself backward with his arms while keeping his legs underneath him until he’s sitting up.
