Shake Rattle and Roll

Ella Kathleen has learned how to both hold and shake a rattle, and Mommy and Daddy could not be more proud! You'll notice, though, that Ella is holding a different rattle in the second photo. This is because her hand-eye-rattle coordination has not developed well enough for her to not whack herself in the face with the rattle! The next thing Ella will learn how to do will be first aid... We decided that a stuffed rattle would be much more practical...and safe.
