Success!

Ella has finally gotten all four appendages to work together to create foward movement. For the last two months I've been preparing the boys for what would come; and now the tiny marbles, cars, and G.I. Joes are banished from the living room. Jack is excited that she is on the move, however, Will is home all day and its cutting into his playtime routine. We have sectioned off a "safe zone" where the boys can keep a few things and Ella would have,for now, a hard time getting into. But the freedom of laying things down and walking away is now gone. But its so fun to watch her lift up and move, I purposly put her in the middle of the floor so she will have to crawl to whatever she wants. She mostly uses this new skill to get to the nearest object she can pull herself to standing on. She really loves to stand and has even began cruising around the couches. She is still very slow at all these new tasks, but she will get faster and will soon there will be no more "safe zone".
