I can do the sign for stand

So the little girl is still not officially walking. Or even really close to it, really. I do believe she is stubborn, because she can walk around fine holding the tiniest little sliver of my finger. Or pushing the plastic shopping cart with her baby finger and nothing else (ok, maybe a slight exaggeration). She's smart, too, talking a ton, saying sentences even!, and knows at least 25 signs. She loves to look at books and play with her toys, but the walking thing, she's just going to do it on her own schedule and once she starts, look out!

She has taken one step that I have seen, so I know she can do it.

But she is really into that boom thing. She stands, she claps, she sits down and says boom. It's turned into a game.

Now she is starting to finally stand on her own. I was watching her tonight, she stands up, claps, goes back down, repeats about 10 times. Stands up for a good amount of time, too, about 10 seconds or so.

On her last go, she stood up, signed the sign for "stand" and then sat back down. I thought that was pretty great.
