fearless ellie

we've always known ellie to be pretty brave and fearless. she has always been climbing on this or that. she seems to have excellent footing and balance and coordination. and she's never really too concerned about falling. she is so different in that sense from addison. addison has always been super cautious.... afraid of heights, speed, falling, getting dirty, etc. i mean it took up until this past fall for addison to even climb up into the upper part of a play structure and slide down the big slide. ellie is the quite opposite. in fact, just a couple of days ago, we went to this play place. and ellie climbed right up to the top and went down the big tunnel slide... by herself... without hesitation! i guess i think it's funny and surprising because we weren't expecting it. everyone there was coming up to us saying she was so brave. even i don't like going down those things... i guess addison takes after me! :)

this was from last week... an easy one...



graduating to something a little harder... you can't tell how long this slide is from my video. it just looks like she's coming out of redness! haha but it was pretty long... and fast!
