Scout’s latest thing follows in his dad’s footsteps exactly!  I lay him on his back and give him my thumbs to hold.  He grabs them, and without any help at all, he does a full sit up.  Once he is sitting completely up, I lift my thumbs higher and with the support, he stands all the way up on his own power — so basically my thumbs give him something to hold and support him, but I don’t help at all.  I think it is safe to say that Scout definitely takes after his dad in the whole “do things early” baby stuff.
