My latest addition to their scrapbook, our little "Ellie Bean" as we call her
Our little Ellie Bean started walking this Saturday, July 3rd. Audrie took her first steps over a month ago, but Ellie just wasn't quite ready. She's been cruising around behind her lion toy for awhile, but didn't want to try on her own. Finally on Saturday she started standing on her own & then doing a 1/2 crawl, 1/2 bear crawl. By evening she was taking a few steps by herself.
If it's anything like Audrie, all of a sudden she'll stop crawling all together & be walking everywhere. It was funny with Audrie, when we were in Kansas she was happy walking as long as there was someone across from her she could walk to. As soon as we got back to AZ and I put her down in the living room; all of a sudden she started walking everywhere. It was almost as if she said, "if I can do it at Grandma & Grandpa's, I can definitely walk on my own here. She's never looked back...the day we got back home she totally stopped crawling. She's practically went from walking to running in the past 2 weeks.
Last but not least, we had their 1 year check up last week. They are doing amazing. Audrie weighed 20 lbs. 10 oz & Ellie weighed 18 lbs. 14 oz. They are healthy as can be.
