and she walks for longer!
A few weeks ago Elli started walking between Nee and myself. Since then she started to walk a bit more, from the couch to a chair, or from a chair to the wall. On Friday night (8th Dec), Ellianah walked for longer than she ever has before.

It was like a switch was flicked in her brain and she was no longer scared about letting go. Off she went like a rocket, walking around the house for about an hour or so before she crashed and burned. By the end of it she was so tired and sweaty, but she was so excited with her achievement that all she wanted to do was keep on walking!

We took a bit of video and yesterday morning before leaving to go to the Gold Coast, I cut together a few clips from the digital camera and put it to a soundtrack.

You need to install Flash Player to view this video.

Thank you Ellianah! You make us so happy with your smiles and laughter. Keep on keeping on!

like the song says all you need is love and to belive in each other. when things are going wrong today then turn around and look at what you have and tomoorow will still come and the next day and you will still have each other

an angel flies around your room sometimes she hovers for a second or two sometimes she dances for a second or two . but don't blink for a second or two. before you open your eyes that little angel is driving your car.

Your gorgeous Mum! Did you know that? I don't know anyone in this life time who is as strong and amazing as you. All your triumphs and defeats have made you strong, stronger, the strongest. Elli is going to grow up having such great respect for you... And though I was but a wee little lass, I remember those days too... It's like a whole seperate life time to me... But I wouldn't trade that time for anything because even though it was just the two of us... we did real well and made the most of what we had.

Mum - you're the BEST!!!!

Love Née x x x

Wow! She moves like a torpedo!

Funny to see how she's grown and walking around that familiar room.

Take care you don't lose her on your trip. She's taking so many quick steps to watch after!
