He's even moving around more in the bathtub. This can come in handy for washing his little bottom, but is a little scary for me as I can picture all kinds of catastrophes. The first time he stood up in the tub (last night) I asked him to sit down and he did. Later he got up on his knees in an attempt to get a bottle off the low shelf. When he slipped and slid face-first toward the water I was right there and could catch him before he actually face-planted. After I managed to get him sitting up again he had a good laugh about it. I'm glad he's not afraid of water...

Growing more confident
Liam's journey toward mobility is continuing. He is now comfortable with sitting back down after he has stood up. He's also more confident about his ability to hold on with one hand, which is helpful in his quest to handle, taste and possibly break everything in the house.
