We celebrated baby girls birthday yesterday and today. We all enjoyed celebrating her and watching her enjoy her special day. More details on her birthday to come in a separate post. But, for now, here's a glimpse of Emma Jean at 1 year old...
- She loves books. I wouldn't say she loves to read books, but she loves to hand us books, flip through a few pages, then get down to get another books. She also enjoys pretend reading, talking as she turns the pages.
- Her ninth tooth popped up and possibly her tenth, but she doesn't like when I try to check so I'm not sure. :)
- She can point to her head. And, maybe her mouth.
- She signs "all done," but that's it. We've been working on please, thank you, and more to avoid so much grunting!
- Emma figured out how to get down off a couch or chair by sliding off on her belly.
- She pretends to put GermX on her hands after a diaper change. She reaches toward the bottle and rubs her little hands together.
- As of Thanksgiving day, she is completely weened. She's handled it just fine.
- She sleeps great at night unless something is bothering her... this week it's been a tooth and a cold.
- We've gone back and forth about dropping the morning nap. She's able to skip it if we are busy, but if we are home I usually try to get her down twice.
- She is into everything. It's pretty hard to be productive while Emma's awake. If I try to fold laundry, she unfolds all my piles. If I pick up toys, she goes right behind me and pulls more out. If I mop the floor, she throws her entire meal on the floor. There is no chance of sewing as the second I turn my head, she has climbed up on the table/couch, or rocking chair. She is fun though!
Happy Birthday Emma Jean!
