she's getting so BIG!

Tuesday Emma is 1 years old...SO SAD! I miss my little baby! She's growing up so fast, and I'm not ready for it...mainly because I'm not ready for another baby to take her place. :)

Emma's current events:
1) Emma took her first steps at 10 months, and has walked everywhere since 11 months. She finally will wear shoes, which is a blessing! :)
2) Emma's hair is long enough for those lil piggy tails & Pebbles's ponytails.
3) Emma loves swimming...almost too much!
4) Emma loves getting into everything, and still puts everything into her mouth.
5) Emma has started jabbering, but only knows a few real words. Her favorites are "wow", "dadda", "momma", and "baba",
6) Emma loves to play peek-a-boo, and loves to be chased.
7) Emma sleeps around 12-13 hours a night, and takes between 2 and 3 hours worth of naps during the day. She's still a growing girl, but loves sleeping like her Momma! :)
8) Emma loves it when Daddy gets home from work. She won't even let me hug or kiss him when he's holding her. She always pushes me away.
9) Emma's next doctor's appointment is on the 24th, so we'll know her percentiles then. I'm going to speculate that she's in the 90th for height, 80th for weight, and 90th for head. Any other guesses?
10) Emma loves singing and dancing! We'll have to video it next time. Until then, enjoy the pics! :)








Oh, and did I tell you that we painted our den in stripes because we recarpeted? It's like a light beige color in matte and semi-gloss. Thanks Rach for the idea! We love the room, but didn't enjoy the stress during finals! :)
