Great-Grandpa and G. Aunt Dawn and G. Uncle Greg were there, too, to witness this fun event. She took maybe 3 or 4 steps and then rested for a while. Then a day or two later, she'd practice a few more. She was very proficient at walking with assistance (a hand, a table, Buzz Lightyear) but not totally on her own.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> This video was taken two weeks later on Sunday Sept, 19. She was practicing her couple of steps (showing off for her boyfriend Finn) when something clicked and she just got it: "Oh! This is how you walk! Of course." And she was off! Hasn't stopped walking since. Take a look at her first 5 minutes of real walking....</div><br />

Here's another fun laughing video. At around 10.5 or 11 months, Ellie learned the art of the fake laugh. She generally pulls this laugh out when the adults are laughing or if adults are chatting and no one is paying attention to her. She throws her head back, opens her mouth wide, and closes her eyes a little bit while doing the laugh. It's too much...and it gets the reaction she was going for! <br />
This isn't the greatest video capture of the laugh (this would get a "C" rating as far as Ellie fake laughs go), but it's the only one I've got on tape and you'll get the point. It's at the very beginning of the video...so pay attention!<br />
<br />
Notice also in the video: newer skill of walking around the table, new emotion called frustration and clenched fist when Mom won't pick her up, and that Mom attachment I referred to in the Hilton Head post..."I must have you, Mommy!"<br />
<br />

All is good in Charlotte and we're getting ready for a move back to the other side of Charlotte; moving from South Park to Plaza Midwood. We love the area over there and are excited to walk to brunch, the grocery store, to friends' homes, and only drive 5 minutes to work! I'll send pics when we settle in!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Ellie's giggling is contagious. You can get her to laugh like this pretty easily. She's just so happy! :)Thomas and Sarahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09327199948043352284noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1770228341753252487.post-44855360617123994492010-02-26T22:55:00.001-05:002010-02-26T23:00:26.893-05:00Misc.

Sometimes I mix rice cereal or oatmeal cereal into the food, but it makes it so much more bland. I think avocado is next on our list!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Ellie is doing an amazing job at sitting up. She can sit for as long as she so pleases and she can multi-task while doing it! She can chew on her fingers (as seen below), play with a toy, look around and laugh, etc. No longer are the days where she has to "focus" on sitting. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I added these great tub pics b/c I fear the sink/tub days are almost over. You can see that she is about to pop out of the of the tub and now that she can sit, she likes to do so in the tub. After she's had her bath and is rinsed off, we let her sit in the tub and splash around. She's almost ready for a 100% sitting up tub-time!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Did you know we had puppies? Well, really, Kaya had puppies. It was sort of a surprise to us, too. We had about 2 weeks notice. Thomas' friend built us a great box and the puppies have been fun to have and absolutely no work thus far. Kaya is a busy mom (we have bonded now, of course) but it hasn't affected our lives yet! They are too cute. These pics are from their first day...which was 1/20/10. There are 3 girls and 1 boy. I'll upload more pics of them soon; they look much different now. Let me know if you know anyone who'd like one! We still have two left (one is going to Lucia and one to Emily). They will be ready to leave Kaya in about a month. </span><br />

She has enjoyed starting solids and loves bananas over rice cereal. We haven't tried them yet, but sweet potatos are next. She loves to sit in her high chair and eat with the big kids aka Mom & Dad. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

She squeels when you "scare" her and even laughs when you tickle her. She also plays coy sometimes and will look away when you are trying to entertain her but she will still smile. She won't "acknowledge" you but she is smiling...so cute. Daddy is still silly, too!</span></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Here she is showing off her sitting skills. This was at the beginning of her sitting voyage so she's still leaning. She's much better now. Now, she can sit and chew on something at the same time without even wobbling! I'll try to get a video uploaded of her sitting and playing soon...it just takes so darn long to do. Most times, it "Fails".</span></div>Thomas and Sarahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09327199948043352284noreply@blogger.com0
