This morning we left for our Christmas photos not long after Megan got dressed this morning so she didn't get any time standing until very late this afternoon. After she exchanged gifts with granny and had her snack I put her shoes on her and started working with her.
She stood up from the cushion and stayed standing for a very long time so I started working on getting her to move. After some "security" holding from me to get her moving she started cruising on the coffee table. She took 2-3 steps and then turned to get a toy on the ottoman and then she turned back to the table and took 3-4 steps along the table which required my hands on her hips. I didn't do anything but she needed my hands there to feel comfortable going to her left. She ended up doing this several times. I was so happy for her I cried.
I helped her get into standing from her knees a couple of times and then she did it again by herself for the first time since her "strike".
Yesterday she even stood at her car for a few minutes - big girl heading in the right direction.
After dinner she sat in the kitchen playing with her Leap Frog fridge magnets and was able to put the letter magnet inside a couple of times.
Gifts from granny - mom gave Megan a couple of outfits, 3 books and a cat that runs away from you. Once she opened the first book she was done with gifts. She did finally stop reading the first book long enough to open her next book but then granny had to open the rest of her gifts because no matter how many times mom moved the book she would do whatever it took to get back to it.
