Monday November 19

So it finally happened... Elle took a few steps on her own last night.  She walked between Jeff, the ottoman, and me - about 2 or 3 steps at a time.  She took three more steps to me this morning, but seems to prefer walking on her knees before trying to walk for real.  Within the past few days, she has decided she wants to feed herself... this has been very messy and challenging since she is so determined and wants NO help.  I think she needs a bib outfit to wear and a completely washable chair to sit in with a removable floor mat underneath!
