Happy 6 months Emma!

This little girl is such a bundle of joy. We have loved watching her grow and experience new things.

Emma loves: 

-Carly

-chewing on anything she can get into her mouth

-sleeping at night

-army crawling 

-her swing on the swing set

-to smile

-eating rice cereal (we have been feeding her off and on for about a month now. She loves it. We have been better about it this past week because she is 6 months!)

-getting into anything Carly is playing with

-walks in the double stroller

-being outside

-being tickled, she is super ticklish!

-bath time with her big sister. Emma lays down and kicks water all over Carly. It is so fun.

-sleeping in the car (We went to Field of Dreams and she slept all the way there and all the way home even with a movie playing in the van). 

-paper, anything that will crinkle and make that noise. She goes after whatever paper she can find and puts it in her mouth.

Emma doesn't care for: 

-church (we trade off who takes her out in the hall, Jeremy has been great about taking care of her during church)

-being left alone

-long naps (she still naps about 30 minutes and then is up, I will take it! At least she sleeps really well at night).

-other people (we have handed her off to other people to hold her, she isn't a fan. She just starts screaming. She loves Carly, Jeremy, and I).

New experiences for Emma:

-falling down the stairs :( I went to change my shirt one last time before heading out the door to church. bad mommy moment. She was fine. Just a little bruise on her head. :( We always have the baby gate up now so that won't happen again.

-army crawling. It is so fun to see her move around on the floor and get to things that she wants. It makes for a happy baby when she can get to things!

-4th of July! This was her first fourth of July. We spent it with the Keller's. They came to visit. 

-Emma sleeps in her own room in her own crib. 

-Emma has blue eyes, blonde hair, and a dark patch of hair on the back of her head that is slowly going away. 

-She still has a little bit of pink on her right eye, but it looks so much better! It quit having so much dry skin and flaking all the time.

-She wears 3-6 months and 6 months clothes. I am slowly putting those away and getting out the 6-9 months clothes. 

-She is in size 3 diapers. 

My favorite picture I took today. They are both smiling and looking at me! Oh how I love watching these two interact. It melts my heart when they laugh and talk to each other.
