Starting to Stand

This post should definitely have some pictures with it but every time I try to get one Emery just gets excited and tries to come get the camera. On Feb 29th, (so about 9.5 months old) I noticed Em let go of the couch and stand by herself. It was way cute, you could tell she knew she had to be careful because she kept her arms straight in front of her, just inches from the couch, so she could hurry and stable herself if she needed to. She did it for a few seconds and then grabbed back onto the couch. Since then she has been standing lots. She can even clap while she's standing, so I know it's only a matter of time till those first steps happen. She can't quite get to a standing position without something to pull up on but she's trying to figure that out too. When I can actually sneak a picture without her noticing I'll get one up.
