Look, Mom, no hands!!!!

Simon is getting better and better at standing by himself for long periods of time. He can even get up and down without holding on to anything. As for walking....well....he has taken 3 or 4 steps on several different occassions, but still prefers crawling as his main means of getting around. He tends to take steps when the rest of us are in the middle of doing something else. He promptly sits down or lays down and has a mini tantrum whenever we try to coax him into walking. He is definitley becoming a "I will do it when I feel like it" kind of kid :-)
