What a difference a week makes...

As you all read in an earlier post, our goal was to have Ella sitting up by our beach trip, well that didn't exactly happen. She was close and could sit up when placed up and hold herself up with her arms, but she could not sit up on her own or even for that long. Fast forward a week after vacation, Ella was at Gramma Kim's on Friday and as they played, she sat for at least an hour! (that's the longest thus far) By Saturday, my little bean was going from the floor to sit up position with no problem! WOW :) Now she is a sitting up machine. Oh and we discovered TOYS! We were over at our friend Henry's house (Angel don't you love how it's Henry's house now!) Henry has so many cool toys. Angel decided to take Ella over for a toy test drive and she was all about it. She sat there and played like a champ! I thought to myself "I have totally deprived Ella from these cool toys!" So I got home and pulled out the toy box Aunt Heather gave us and she went to town...


These past two weeks have been huge milestones for Ella Jean. She has developed so many knew abilities and they just keep on coming!
Last night Ella crawled!!!!!!
It was only a couple of steps but it was definitely something she will be working towards and mastering in a few days. She loves this new and exciting time! (pictures/video to come)

Yeeaaa Ella! How exactly does she go from floor to sitting? Brynn's been sitting for a few weeks now but she can't get from the floor there. It seems so hard!
