Hi

Only last week I was thinking to myself should I be concerned about Harriet
standing on her tippy toes!  

She has recently started to pull herself up on the furniture, etc, and trying
to walk with her walker, but always with tippy toes.  I have tried to get her
to stand with both feet to the ground but to no avail.  It seems that she is
much more comfortable on her toes.  When I try to get her to stand properly,
she gets very uncomfortable and her posture becomes awkward.  She refuses to
move and try to walk until she is back on those tippy toes!  

The reason why I am concerned is that I am wondering whether this will delay
her in walking?    

It's interesting to hear that many of our littles ones do this.  I thought is
was just our Harriet and another one of her funny little quirks!

Best wishes to all,
