Finlay is getting ready to walk. He actually took two unassisted steps on Friday night. He saw me enjoying some fresh, homemade focaccia bread and he just let go of a shelf he was using to steady himself and made two short steps, confidently unaware, to my knee as I sat on the coffee table with my appetizer. No one saw it but me. It was amazing.
Friday was "Finlay & Daddy" day and Tyler got a great video of Finlay standing, unassisted, and clapping to music. He is doing this more and more, seemingly with more confidence and intention, and sometimes he acts as though he is practicing his standing. Here is the link to Finlay giving his first standing ovation:

Another part of getting ready to walk, it seems to me, is just getting more and more physically adventurous. Finlay throws himself to the ground, explores a new way of crawling, and climbs over and into more and more places. He climbed into an empty cubby in his room yesterday and we played a little game of "Knock, knock. Where's Finlay?" It was pretty cute!
Just look at that face! Pure glee!
We were in the middle of getting him dressed, so he is only wearing one legging.
