More Elsie Milestones

The very day I posted my previous milestone blog, Elsie made some exciting progress.

* She's now definitely a crawler. Out of nowhere she just decided that crawling was her preffered means of locomotion and off she went. She tries to follow me now if I leave a room, and has decided that her mission in life is to make sure there are always some CDs off the shelf and on the floor. Every time I tidy them away she crawls over and pulls a few (or a lot) off the shelf again.

* She is finally getting some teeth! We just noticed that one of her top teeth has poked through and the other is just about ready. Fortunately, this hasn't seemed to bother her tons, although I did have a right battle trying to get her to sleep tonight... maybe the teeth are to blame!

* A slight regression... she now shouts dada whenever the cat walks by (in addition to calling Daddy that). Daddy is disappointed in her inability to distinguish between him and a cat, but I'm trying to reassure him that calling everything by one word is a standard developmental phase!
