What a Week!! - Part 2

Part 2 - Ellie isn't letting anything stop her from getting what she wants!

Ellie is now mobile and she can get herself into a sitting position! She has been spending quite a bit of time travelling backwards for a while now. However, over the past week she has figured out how to propel herself forward. She was lunging and army crawling. She would be so determined to get somewhere she would lunge herself forward multiple times, coupled with pulling herself on the floor to get it.

Today, her note from daycare (we get a daily report of how she was, when she slept, when she ate, etc) said that she was crawling around. I asked if it was army crawling or real crawling and they said a little bit of both and that she would move herself across the floor to get to a toy or person! As soon as we got home I put her on the floor and she was moving herself to me and then to Nick!

We will try and get a video and pictures to post soon!

As a side note, Ellie is recovering from her first cold. She never had a fever but suffered from a runny nose. We had a couple rough nights as she had trouble falling and staying asleep. But who can really sleep anyway when they have a congested nose? Although congested, Ellie mastered sitting up by herself over the weekend.
