Ellie has begun to sit!! She is sooooo happy and so in love with the fact that she can now get herself to the sitting position rather than what was happening a week or so ago:
Here is the "star" :).
"YOU want some of this?"
"It's green foam on a stick that my Mommy soaks in ice cold water.""Nevermind, you already know how to drink."
The other kids celebrate each and every time Ellie finds her way to a sitting position. Today they celebrated by getting down with her and cheering!
But then...
...she's off!
She does fall backwards occasionally so we are still in protection mode like were above. She's already had her first fall on the brick floor of the house. She cried very little. She's a tough one!
