Sitting down on the job...

Gwendolyn has been working hard on her sitting skills these days. She sits on pretty much everything: on the floor, on her drawing footstool, on stairs, on overturned baskets, on the sliding glass door ledge, on chair cushions left on the floor... and sometimes even on chairs (with a boost up, of course).

Here's a film of her practicing on a recent rainy morning. Notice the partial "spin around" prior to sitting down the second time; sometimes it's a full revolution or two before she sits. It reminds us of the habit of dogs getting ready to lay down and nap.





We're not sure where the "Grandma, Grandma" fits in -- sometimes Gwendolyn just says what's on her mind, which often is of the non sequitur variety.
