Our guests have gone camping for the week leaving us to do whatever we do when we don't have guests... mostly cleaning the basement and vacuuming. Alden is growing and changing at a tremendous rate. Besides the fact that his teeth are starting to come in, he is becoming stronger and more mobile. He is sitting up by himself for minutes at a time and enjoying standing activities like interacting with his 'DJ flying saucer'.
Alden cannot stand yet, but he can pull himself up by holding onto my thumbs and pulling while I lift. He can also hold himself up when he has something to support his chest and arms. Alden has more energy then he has balance or strength so whatever sitting or standing progress occurs is usually undermined by a flail to the left or a dive forward, forcing us to stay on our toes. We've had had a few close calls so far but nothing serious. 
Alden has also become silly for solid food. He can't get enough of the stuff. He still likes milk, but we don't have any problems getting him to eat. He is especially fond of banana.
