crawling

this Santa is tutu cute

Emma can crawl and pull up all on her own now, she is growing too fast. It is very exciting to watch her grow and accomplish all her milestones. We are proud of our little turkey but now it is time to baby proof. I feel like she will be 16 before I know it. I just try to hug her and kiss her and tell her I love her as much as I can because it is true, the do not stay babies forever! Here are some pictures we got taken for Christmas gifts, hope you enjoy.

Wow, it has been a while. Emma is doing great and hitting all her milestones, some early! She can sit and is just about to crawl...she goes on all fours and rocks and then usually thinks better of it and sits back up again. She can get to what she wants inch by inch this way. She has 3 teeth, and one more about to break the skin (I have been so lucky that teething does not make her fussy). Her new thing is to scream, she loves it, and laughs at herself when she does it. She can pull up w/ only a tiny bit of assistance, so it wont be long now, and can stand up anywhere you prop her.

The sign language is also going well. She can recognize the signs for milk and eat. Right now we are working on all done and more. Some others we show her daily are take a bath, I love you, mommy, daddy, and doggie. So far she can do the sign for milk but we are working on the others.

We have been blessed with not too many problems at all, and a very happy baby girl! She has been sick once with a virus, but other then that no rashes, ear infections or colic to speak of. We are very thankful for a beautiful healthy girl.

At the last visit (Nov 2) Emma weighed 17.02 lbs and was 27 inches tall. I'm guessing now she is probably about 18 lbs and 28 inches which means we are going to have to switch out of the infant car seat pretty soon.

Other than that we are just enjoying the time with Daddy :D

*Oh and Emma LOVED the snow, she was just watching it and smiling!!!
