sisters and friends

it's neat to see shelby and elise develop a relationship. individually we see them look up to and admire us as parents and family, but their relationship with each other is more equal. it's sweet. they laugh together, look for each other, get bored waiting for the other to wake up, and today shelby tried to comfort elise. elise was crying and shelby brought her a pretzel. it worked! hey, i can use all the help i can get.

elise crawled across the family room this evening. she has been doing a combination crawl / army crawl, but today she got it down! the more mobile she gets, the less frustrated she gets ... and the easier it is to keep her happy. gotta love it.
