Miss Ellie may never walk on her own. She has figured out how to steer her walker/push toy. It's so cute to watch. She will hit a wall (or a piece of furniture), back up, turn slightly left or right, run into the wall again, back up, turn a bit more, run into the wall again...it's sort of like watching Austin Powers doing a u-turn in the golf cart, but she's much cuter while doing it. She has even started anticipating the need to steer -- as she starts to get close to a wall or doorway, she'll stop, realign, walk a little farther, stop, realign, and continue on her way. She can go anywhere with her walker now! And she can go quickly...I'm not sure that she's technically running, but she can definitely wog!
Her other new, practical skill is brushing her hair. The bristles are rarely facing the right direction, but she definitely knows what to do with a brush. We're so impressed with her new talents (you would never guess that we're first-time parents, would you?!)!
