She's saying "mama" finally! yay! and of course "dada" "nana" and "baba" although we don't know what those last two really mean! She'll babble all day going through her alphabet and it's so sweet to hear, especially from the back seat of the car.
She loves to pull up into the refrigerator or freezer and can open the pantry door where she proceeds to pull out everything on the bottom shelf. I just let her explore...She's opening drawers too and pulling everything out but she can't figure out how to NOT mash her fingers. Climbing into the dishwasher is also something she likes to do. I only let her do it when I'm unloading though...dirty dishes are gross! She also loves to pull out the laundry from the basket and mess up what I've already folded. We do a lot of picking up after Hurricane Emily, that's for sure.
She loves to play peek-a-boo! This is an older video but still funny! Oh and she'll shred a tissue, napkin or magazine in no time!
School continues to be a great place for her to play and learn and I enjoy the break. Although we can't seem to figure out naps around school days but that's OK, summer will be here soon. These are the valentine treats she took for her teachers and classmates.
Speaking of treats, this girl is quite the eater! She's nursing great still and loves most everything she's tried. Lately she's been having chicken and we usually let her try whatever we're having. She's doing great with feeding herself. She's drinking water out of her sippy cup too but really loves this Camelbak water bottle i got her. It says its for ages 3+ and Blaine doesn't even know how to drink out of it! I love mine and she always wants a sip when I'm drinking it so she has her own now. Except she pulls it out of her mouth before she swallows so her shirt ends up soaking wet!
I've been doing a lot of consignment sale shopping and my mom was able to meet us for one sale. Here's Emily driving her car!
We've gone to the park and played on the swings too and she LOVES it. I want one in the backyard but we have such nice parks here that we should really just go to them.
Blaine is staying busy at work and we go a visit sometimes. Its nice too that he can come home for lunch and play for a little while with us. We love that part of our day! I'm starting to have some CAbi shows and stay busy with that during nap times and in the evenings. When my samples arrived we snapped this picture of Emily (on the far right) and I sent it to my rep at CAbi and they featured it in the weekly newsletter last week! I was so excited! Blaine is always such a good help with everything, especially schlepping my CAbi samples and I really appreciate all that he does.
Finally, this was the funniest video... I took it while we were shopping at Hobby Lobby one day...the end is the best (I think she thought she got caught!) We've laughed and laughed at this video!
Our baby is growing up...and its so fun to be a part of her life. We love our baby Emily to the moon and back!
