Question: if one hand is holding a block and the other hand is holding
a weeble, which hand is holding me up? I’m sure this is what’s going
through Elizabeth’s mind when she gets so distracted with playing that
she doesn’t notice when she takes her hands off her support wall. When
she notices this, she usually gets so excited she falls down.

Last Sunday she took some steps on a walker. In the morning, she would
only take one step, but then we showed her the walker that afternoon
and she took off walking across the whole house on her first attempt.
It was cute how proud of herself she was. The cats looked on in
bewilderment (how did she figure out how to walk on her hind legs?) At
times the walker would get so far ahead of her that she almost looked
horizontal, but in most cases she was able to right herself without
doing a face plant.
