Eleven months

My little stinker is eleven months old today! Elsie is still working on her walking; she will walk just fine if we stand her up and prompt her, but she is still not taking off on her own. She has a few words now, and if you speak fluent Elsie (as we do), you can hear her say Dada (or Daddy sometimes), Mama, bye bye, thank you, uh-oh, and jacket. One of her favorite things to do now is crawl up behind one of us, climb up our pant legs, then go walking around while holding on to our pants. Very cute, but also very difficult if I'm doing something like making dinner or washing dishes. She is certainly a little firecracker, but we love her.
