sitting, part two......

so casey finally has learned how to sit, again.......for the past two weeks or so she's been pulling herself up on everything but once she's up she realizes she doesn't know how to get down, and freaks out.......which has wreaked havoc on our neat, structured little naptime schedule in her crib.......she'd be tired, but not tired enough not to climb up her crib sides and get stuck, over and over again......and the "i'm scared" cry takes way longer to calm her down after than a normal "i'm tired" cry......so naptimes lately have been in my lap......which is good for catching up on tv time, but not good for the household errands that have been building up.......luckily it hadn't carried over to bedtime which has still been going ok - well up until last night, but i'm hoping that was a fluke.......but anyway, today she climbed up our dining room chair and after a while, stuck out her butt and very hesitantly dropped to her butt........she did it a couple more times after that.......it was awesome.......i was so excited that i actually cheered for her.......clapping and all.......this is definitely something she needs to learn soon because she really does get scared up there......and i hadn't wanted to keep helping her down - figured she'd never learn to do it herself that way.......so yay!......
