What happened to crawling?

Cora has only been crawling (true crawling not army style) for 2 weeks now, but apparently she has decided to move on to bigger and better things. Last week she started trying to pull herself to the standing position on a regular basis, but it was always a half stance and was met immediately with a fall to her bum. Not anymore! Yesterday she pulled herself completely up on the side of the chair...and actually stayed there for awhile! Well, it only takes one time...now that is all she wants to do! Sure, she still crawls to get her toys, chase Lily or follow me around the house. However, crawling is now the means to get to her end (her spot to practice standing)...i.e. the entertainment center, shelving, fireplace, chair, sofa, daddy...well you get the idea. Any dibs on how soon she will be walking...?
Need I explain any of these photos....

Madeline started doing that really early too...she would army crawl or whatever just to get to where she could pull up and cruise...but she's STILL not walking completely independently, so you may have some time :) Cora seems very motivated though!
