Just the past couple of days you started sitting up all by yourself on the floor. Very occasionally you will fall over backward, or reach too far for a favorite toy and tilt yourself too precariously off-balance, beginning a slow slide to the right or left, until you fall all the way over that direction. Then you set up an ear-piercing howl until someone sets you upright again.
Usually I take your green toy basket and dump it out in front of you - you love to reach and play with different toys-first you chew on this one, then you chew on that one... A little bit of giraffe, little bit of crinkle book, little bit of couch skirt... Seriously, everything goes in your mouth. If you can reach it, it's edible. So far you haven't managed to fit the green BASKET in your mouth yet, but you've licked it several times.
You will generally play like this for an hour or longer, provided someone is in the room with you. You make sure they're still in the room by repeatedly reaching behind you and feeling for their pant leg, or patting their feet. (or chewing on their toes, in my privileged case).
