Standing Tall

Juliana decided that while we were all a bit distracted it would be a good weekend to learn to pull herself all the way up to standing. Of course, with this new skill comes the responsibility of learning which items in the house are not good for pulling up on. The chairs to play table, for example have felt pads on the feet so Gabriella doesn't scratch up the floor. These are not so great for pulling up on, but if you are careful you can get a few good steps pushing the chair across the floor before you wipe out.

Oh and another milestone... Juliana's hair is finally long enough for clippies! I got out all of my bow/hair clip making stuff and made her a few new ones. I had some scraps of that rubber grippy shelf liner and I glued a tiny piece inside of her clips. It holds the clip in her wispy fluff like magic! They don't budge even a milimeter. I still have tiny clippies that were Gabriella's, but I used magnets to hold those and that doesn't work quite as well for Juliana's hair so I may convert them for Jules. I also made the fantastic pumpkin bows that Gabriella wore to the pumpkin patch. I'll have to post a closer picture of those later.
