Emma turned 10 months old yesterday. What the heck happened? It feels like I just gave birth a few weeks ago. Babies really do grow quickly!
Emma now has 4 teeth, the bottom two are all the way in and the top two have just cut through with in the last 5 days. She is standing up hanging on to things but does let go and can stand on her own for a short period of time. She loves her toys that she can push and walk around with.
Emma loves music as soon as she hears anything that can possibly sound like a song she starts dancing and smiling. She is the happiest baby ever!! CJ and I have really been blessed with such a good baby. (Which we are very lucky for, if you ask either of our moms, apparently CJ and I were the fussiest babies and we had issues like colic and projectile vommiting and so forth).
We have also been trying to teach Emma sign language. So far she has learn how to sign "more". We practice with her at meal time and she signs "more" when she wants more food. She usually smiles and laughs as she is doing it, I think she loves being able to communicate with us.
Emma loves playing peak-a-boo. She loves it so much, just the other day at mom's house she took off her bib and placed it over her head and just stayed like that until I said "where's Emma?" and she pulled down the bib and said "Boo". She loves the game and cracks up everytime, it never fails, even if she is crying.
We have also enrolled Emma in swimming lessons. Her first session was at the YMCA in Hagerstown, but we missed half of the classes due to our vacation in FL, Snow and Sickness. This time we were able to enroll Emma in the classes at Shepherd College. Which is even better because it's just a few minutes from the house and on Saturdays. They actually do more instruction at Shepherd College than they did at the Y. Emma was able to get onto a kickboard, and "surf" all over the pool. Mimi went with us since Daddy had to work, but Mimi got an awesome pic on her phone of Emma "surfing." Emma also went underwater 3 times at the end of class. Without crying, she is such a waterbaby.
This weekend, I am going away overnight and it will be my first night without Emma since she was in the NICU. I am really going to miss her. Uncle Adam and Aunt Hailey are going to spend time with her while CJ is at work, and I know she will love being with them. I just hope she isn't bad for them, and I hope I don't blow up their phone too much.
We are starting to plan her 1st brithday party, which will be here before I know it. I just can't believe how quick time flies, it seems like while I was pregnant time just stood still and then once Emma was born time just flew by.
Here are some pictures, Enjoy until next week (or two) I will post more.
