I'm proud to announce that Ella is finally FINALLY walking! I know she's only 13 months so its not like she's really a late walker or anything. But of all my girlfriends or blogs I read, everyone else must've gotten early walkers. It just made me feel like Ella was late. She had been in the "pre-walking" stage for so long, since before Labor Day even! I'm not sure what took her so long!
Last night around 7, Rusty and I were just sitting in the living room with her and Rusty was watching The Simpsons. Ella was standing, holding onto a chair. All of a sudden, she just took about 10 steps and stopped right in front of the TV and stood there for about 2 minutes, watching the Simpons! Then she turned around and walked back to the chair. Then she walked to the fireplace, then to me, then to Rusty. She was like a machine! It was really funny how she went from not at doing it at all to just doing it! I guess its all or nothing with her. Here's a video I took last night-this was probably the 2nd or 3rd time she walked. Can you believe how fast she's going?? Today has been a little slower. She's been walking here and there but she still wants to hold onto my finger when she walks. Not sure it that is just out of habit or if she feels nervous. Go Ella!! You can do it!!

Yay, Ella!
She is really going fast too!
WOW! That is REALLY walking! Go Ella Go!!
SO exciting!!! :) 13 months is not really late! I'm pretty sure Hayley is going to be a late walker - she's still not even completely crawling and she's 9 and 1/2 months. Collin & Summer were taking their first steps at 10 months! I think its just that she doesn't have to do anything cuz she has 4 people that do everything for her! :)
Ella is too cute!!!
love, marisa
She is doing great! I love how she just went back and forth, like watch this mom! I can walk! Good work, Ella Girl!!
