take a seat!

Okay, it's just happening waaaay too quickly.  With every milestone, I feel a tinge of sadness that my little newborn is growing so fast!  But the pride I have in watching her master new developmental skills makes the growing up much easier to swallow.

Here is Ella, just shy of 5 months, sitting on her own.  (You'll have to excuse the bad picture quality.  It was tricky snapping photos with my iPhone while she was tottering about.)

This is how we've been playing lately--with me supporting Ella with my legs.
I realized that she could hold herself up in a sitting position for about 5 seconds.
Then she started to really get the hang of it!
(This shot was taken right before she fell over.  She wasn't too happy about that.)
She really liked her new vantage point.
Shocked that I was next to her instead of behind her.

Sitting was tiring work, so we took a break.
 She can't sit for long on her own, but she's definitely getting the hang of it!  We're so proud!
