Some friends recently posted about how their son, Evan (3 days younger than Ellie), likes to pull his socks off and carry them around. Ellie doesn’t do that often, but she is suddenly prone to taking a clean sock and wearing it around the house. On her hand..

Is this some sort of universal phase kids go through at 22 months?

She also likes putting on any pair of footwear that she can find.. her current favourite is her mom’s Sorel winter boots, which are a bit high for her. She gets around pretty good considering that she can’t really bend her knees.
