The girls are developing so much! While they are 10 months old they are 7 months developmentally. Ellery is now crawling and not always with the strange inch worm method she demonstrated in the video I posted a bit ago. She crawls all over, between things, over things including toys and her sister, and my personal favorite- into my lap. :) She's also starting to pull up on things which is a little scary. Neither girl will sit on her own for longer than a few minutes not because they can't, but they don't want to. It's strange. That makes me really nervous though with Ellery pulling up on things because once she's up the only place to go is all the way down at least if she could sit she could balance herself a little better. We go back to physical therapy and the developmental ped. this week and I'm sure we are going to be in trouble because the girls aren't sitting yet. We've been working with them since September, but they are very strong so we can't just force them to do it. Hopefully they'll have some tips and solutions to get us to that point. Emily can crawl and will do it for a short time, but she prefers to just cry and scream when she can't reach something. It's fun! Emily is clapping now though, if you clap she'll do it and if you say "YEAH" she will start clapping with a big smile on her face. It's really cute!

Ellery liked the chair for 30 seconds and then pushed herself out of it.
Emily would have sat here all night if we let her.
