Here's a sequence of Jared
first learning to stand from a sitting position. He already knew how to
pull himself up using things like chairs and tables. The first picture
looks like the yoga position called "downward facing dog".
He's successfully standing
in the second picture, and he looks ready to do a cartwheel (which should be
quite a few years away). Then, he falls back down. He doesn't look
like he minds at all.
