Ellie is getting up on her hands and feet spinning, and collapsing back down. She's doing it alot.

Yesterday, she pulled herself up on the bath, on the big room coffee table drawer, me-- it's just becoming something she does all the time.

She's following along songs -- "If you're happy and you know it" came on the stereo while I was changing her, and she started clapping her hands-- i hadn't even noticed it.

She's getting more words. J says she says what's that (wasat?), hi, bye, and some other things. I think J is a bit optimistic, but Ellie is definitely understanding lots more.
