My son could stand for a few seconds without holding anything when he just turned 8 months old. He bent her knees a bit--like a slight squat--to help his balance. He was wobbly and only last 2-5 seconds each time and then he had to grasp back onto whatever he was holding. It was amazing to see your kid trying to stand for the very first time!

This is probably a silly question, but do you routinely call her by her name? I felt really sheepish when I had this same concern. I would call her name, and she'd never look. Then I said, "Peanut!" and she immediately snapped her head around to me. Repeatedly.

My baby thinks her name is Punkin. It is not.

Just a thought, if you're calling her by a nickname.

Ds was pretty bald until 18 months or so... well, really, he's 26 months and still doesn't have what I would consider to have "real" hair.

I, on the other hand, had NO hair until after 2 years of age (now my hair is ridiculously thick) and actually had a cousin who still had very little hair when she was 3. I guess the moral of the story is that you just never know.... just like everything else, kids get to things at different time

Guess I will always miss their ability to get excited about everything the most. Oh well, grandchildren will give us another round of this incredible pleasure
