You'd think that, being such a well evolved species, that our babies would be a bit more self-reliant. A horse that's fresh out of the chute can stand up and walk around and do all sorts of impressive things. When a baby is fresh out of the chute, well, it can't do much of anything really.
If you sit Poppy on a flat, even surface with her legs placed neatly in front of her, she'll just tip right over. Every time...she tips over. She's nearly 5 months old, and I'm happy to report that this persistent lack of coordination doesn't seem to bother her. Her facial expression conveys something like:
'I'm really doing all I can here. Let's try this again later.'
