Ready to go!



Gabriel is ready to go! Tonight, he is leaving for 5 wonderful weeks of vacation in Switzerland. He has his own seat on the plane, so we hope that both he and us will be able to get some sleep during the flight.

He is also getting ready to walk. There is some potential for optimization when it comes to being able to stand on his own, though he is progressing rapidly. The video was taken one week ago, today he already stood on his own for 5 seconds!



Gabriel stands very well as long as there is something to hold on to, such as my or Michelle's hands or legs, the stove...



... the side of the bathtub...



... or a leg of the table.



Better (or worse) still, he only needs to hold on to support with one hand, which leaves him ample freedom to pull things down from the table, for example. Lucky for him (and for us!) that he is so cute, which makes people so much more forgiving.
