Ellie's 9 and 10 Month Pictures and Stats

Ok...so I know that Ellie is actually 11 months old, but I have to update the blog with her 9 and 10 month pictures :)  She is changing so quickly now.  She can now free-stand and makes very small attempts at walking.  More often than not though...she is more content being picked up by me or sitting on my lap.  Nolan both loves that she plays with him more, but gets quite frustrated when she takes the exact toy he is playing with. 

January and now February have also been difficult months for Ellie as she has had a continuous ear infection.  Not fun for any of us.  Nolan has never had one, so for Ellie to have several has been frustrating and heart breaking.  Poor little girl has had repeated several days of fevers which is our first sign that she has yet another infection.

On a more positive note, she is developing her coos and ahhs into "ma-ma", "da-da" and "yeah"  If you ask only 'yes' questions, you can have quite the humorous conversation with her.  We are all enjoying seeing our little Elle-belle grow!
