well, it didn’t take long. ellie has been sleeping in her crib for about a month now and we had been waiting for when she might start exploring her surroundings some. we put her down the other night and heard her screaming around 4 a.m. she eventually calmed down for the rest of the night and woke around 6 a.m. like usual, but with a twist: she had somehow turned completely around, with her feet where her head would normally be.

we don’t know if she got so angry at 4 a.m. that she twisted all around, but somehow she managed to do it. now we’ll wait for her to be standing up against the railing waiting for us in he morning. i think we’ll have a bit longer to wait for that, but who knows, maybe she’ll surprise us.
