She's Up and Running...

Well, not exactly running, but she's up and walking all over the place! I think she is officially a walker now. She still falls a lot and has lots of bumps on her face to prove it, but she can walk from one end of the house to the other with out falling sometimes too. She can get up in the middle of the floor without pulling up on stuff and bend over to pick toys up while she is moseying along! She loves playing in this little play house and going in and out, of course she loves the dog cage and dog bed, and she can't get enough of the stairs! She is so cute walking around with her arms out strait and her feet wide. I could watch her all day!

She loves opening the drawers to empty them on the floor, is babbling a lot more now a days, says mama, waves with a closed fist now, gets really angry when she can't have the keys ( I have to try and hide them from her, she hits me and pulls my hair!), sleeps with a paci and her silky blanky, and really loves tearing all of the girls pajamas out of the cabinet until she finds some silky ones and then takes off with them. Funny girl! She is wearing all of the girls clothes and they are mostly "well worn" but i love putting them on her because it brings back good memories.

My favorite dress of all the girls!

She loves her family! She lights up when she sees anyone in the family and loves getting kisses from them and waving goodbye to them at bed time. She is quick to smile and all the kids love to hold her and walk with her. She is tough too, she's got to be with Colt picking on her all the time! She always smushes her blankey in my face when it is bed time trying to give me a rub, and always shares her paci with me, such a sweetie! I love you Ellie! I can't believe how fast this year has gone, only one month until you are one! We are so happy you are here and part of our family!
