Upstanding individual

Ophelia loves to be on her feet. Although she enjoys crawling around, she spends most the time trying to stand. She still needs a supporting hand there, but I don't think it will be long before she's standing on her own for longer than a second or two. It's great in a way to see her developing like this, but also sad that the baby time is flying by so quickly - so much more quickly than first time around.

This is the beach at Druridge Bay. We ended up there this afternoon after spending the morning/lunchtime at Belsay Hall. There's a great exhibition on at Belsay. It finishes in a few weeks, so we got there just in time.
