Thankfulness Friday - Sitting

I wonder how many muscles are involved in the simple act of sitting.  Something most of us don't think twice about can actually be difficult for a baby.  This week, Bun Bun has been making a lot more gross motor skill progress.  She is now able to sit by herself with no support for at least 20-30 minutes.  She doesn't fall over, and she sometimes doesn't even need to prop herself up.  She is getting quite strong with her stomach, leg, and arm muscles.  We'll see when she figures out how to go from lying down to a sitting position.  It's been so much fun watching her work her little body and seeing how she suddenly realizes, "Oh... I can do this with my legs!"
