My Big girl is getting so big! She's such a sweetheart and I love her so much. This has been a really big month in her development!
- She started crawling at 8.5 months old.
- She went from eating pureed baby food to eating little pieces off our plates. She hates to be spoon fed, unless it's yogurt. She swats at the spoon and it splatters everywhere. So, we have stocked up on Cheerios, peas, crackers, bananas, black beans, etc and she is loving it!
- She signs more, waves hi/bye, and claps her hands.
- She can climb up the one step between our playroom and kitchen.
- She's added several several consonants to her babbles and carries on quite the conversations with us.
- Emma is usually sitting up playing when we go to get her out of her crib. I love to walk in and see her smiling at me.
- She can also pull up to her knees and sometimes her feet depending on the situation.
- She continues to be extremely social and has expressed a touch of separation anxiety. She cries if I walk away, but only if she's being left in a room alone. If other people are there, she's content.
- Emma and Sam are becoming best friends. Sam loves to see her achieve new accomplishments and loves to copy her silly antics. She loves his attention and is easily soothed by Sam reading her a book, singing her a song, or giving her kisses and hugs. I love watching them get along so well!
- Emma is quite the wiggly worm, thus creating many reject pictures...
