so Facebook won't hate me

Today Emma wanted to wear the tutu...and because of my infatuation with my daughter I have taken WAY too many pictures of her this morning. So that I do not flood Facebook with them...here are a few. Enjoy






we watched the Sound of Music this morning :)

Emma Update

EmmaLee the 16 month old.
 
 
She...
  • can say "fish", "dance, dance", "nana", "grandma", "papa", kind of "Gigi", "Koko", "Ca-dance", "banana", "signing time" (usually with the sign for baby), "up" (emphasis on the 'p' sound), "eat", "what is THAT?",
  • can sign way too many things to name now. *Thanks Erin and BST
  •  knows where her teeth, cheeks, knees and hair are. All can still be confused with ears. And she now thinks shoving things in her belly button is the thing to do...I hope this phase goes by quickly.
  • still sleeping like a champ. 12 hour nights and a 2-2 and a half hour nap in the afternoon.
she needs her beauty sleep :)
  • we got to see Nana and Aunt Kristen (Koko) at the beginning of this past month
Nana taught her how to work an iphone
  • And Erin came to visit at the end of this month.
Erin taught her how to work an ipad
  • lots of play time with Connor this month. They chase each other, Emma takes toys away from him, Emma pushes him over, Emma drags him places....Emma beats him up....but she has also started wanting to feed him bottles and love on him like he is one of her baby dolls. He has also started to walk...this next month should be interesting.

  • favorite food: Sonic ocean water and tator tots :) 
  • favorite things to do this month are painting (finally, but mainly with brushes...she does not like to be dirty...)
and tea time.
sometimes with Switzer
Switzer hates tea time
And of course watching Tangled
and being a big girl
And having dance parties...with country music...


 
and going to the park
and playing with cars
and being an amazing percussionist
  •  this month we have also been creating the epic ponytail...
so cute =)

 We love our big kid cups with the epic top that make it easier to not spill everything on all over the floor
we love Momma
sometimes
 and temper tantrums
 and reading
 and big teddy
 and discovering new ways to do things
and of course being fabulous
Everyday is something new.
