2 Milestones: Standing Up + Pointing

I have posted a message in which I write that Lorelei is very strong and can pull herself up on virtually anything. So, she has been standing with support for quite a while. At and since that time she has been standing up without support for seconds at a time, mainly caused by lack of attention or surplus of excitement on her part. She would accidentally stand for two seconds, realize it and then sit down again. Now, she can stand by herself, without support, for quite a while. Sometimes she is even holding something, or drinking. She really started doing that during our vacation in Texas and this picture was taken in Nonny and Granddaddy's living room. Quite the achievement, right? For a minute we thought she'd even start walking, but that is still a bit to difficult without support, although she will walk along the wall, table, couch and stuff like that.

Also, just before our vacation, she started pointing at stuff. She has been doing that a lot during our vacation too. She would point at lights, objects, food, etc. But most of all she pointed at a large picture hanging on the wall of Tobias and her saying "Tata". We think she was pointing and trying to say "Tobias". Maybe not, but it was cute anyway... Here you can see her pointing at a picture in a book...
