Ellie is now tall enough to stand in her walker - but she still hasn't figured out how to walk forwards in it!
We've graduated her to the big girl's tub because she was trying to crawl out of the baby one! She likes this one so much better - she can splash as much as she wants!
She's also tall enough to stand in her bouncer - but she doesn't really bounce herself in it, though she definitely has fun when I bounce it for her - as seen in the video above!
She's started to play with every single toy on the bouncer - she'll even move herself around in the circle so that she can spend time with each toy. She used to only be able to stay in it for about 3 minutes before she wanted out, but now she enjoys it for a lot longer.
In preparation for making our home child-safe, Jeremiah and our friend Rudy put knobs and handles on all of kitchen, laundry room, and bathroom cabinets! Looks really nice, and we can put a tie lock around the knobs of the cabinets that we do not want Ellie to open (when that time arrives!) So they serve a duel purpose :)
Such a happy baby!
And crawling everywhere - including underneath her bouncer - what a big world to discover!
I tried placing her in the pack n play to see if she would play by herself in there for a little while - lasted about 30 seconds - just enough time to capture the picture... she looks happy though - but she actually started crying WHILE I took this picture!
I LOVE this picture!
