DINWIDDIE COUNTY, Va. — It may be something that every child accomplishes, but it means even more to the parents of Kaleb Graves, also known as Baby Bun.
Arkell and Dana Graves of Virginia posted video of Kaleb sitting up on his own for 1 minute and 48 seconds on Facebook.

His health and development has been improving ever since.
Kaleb was an internet sensation even before he was born when his father's reaction to his mother's pregnancy news drew millions of video views on Facebook and YouTube.
After health issues with both mom and baby surfaced during the pregnancy, and with only a five percent chance of survival for the baby, Baby Bun was born at 24 weeks of gestation in October of 2015 and spent nearly his first year in the hospital.
His parents called Baby Bun’s milestone last weekend a “blessing.”
