Hi and Bye!

Hi Everyone...please forgive me for not writing in so long! I have been pretty busy...my social calendar has been pretty full!

So, I really have discovered what this waving thing is all about. I wave "hi" and "bye" to everyone and everything! Airplanes (more about those in a second), toys, sippy cups, dolls, books, my blanket, puppies...you get the point! I don't get sad about not being able to take my blanket out of my room, because now I just wave bye-bye to it and tell it I'll see you at my next nap! Everywhere I go, whether it is the grocery store or Subway, I wave to the moving things I see...people, cars, birds, flags... Make sure you vote in my poll (on the right)!

Airplanes! Wow! I really love to watch them go! We must live close to an airport, because they are always flying over my house! I can even hear them inside my house and I look towards the window hoping I will catch a glance! They other night in my bath, Mama was reading me a book and she said the word "airplane" and I looked up from my tub and was sad because I didn't see one flying overhead...If I had seen one, I would have waved...
I have had some really fun playdates lately! I have had 2 with my friend, Wesley. Her Mama, Whitney, brought her to my house the last 2 Fridays and we have a good time! The first time, Wesley and I both really liked playing with the same toys...my new piggy bank and my baby. Mama has been trying to teach me how to share my toys, but I don't know if I like this "sharing" thing. I don't really like to let other people have my things so I try to take them back. Mama says we will keep working on it...maybe one day I will understand. Cyndy brought Mackenzie and Caleb over to play with Wesley and me last Friday. We had a blast. I did better with sharing my toys, but maybe its because Wesley and I chose to play with different toys this time. Will and I got a chance to play together the last couple of weeks too! He is trying to teach me how to crawl up the stairs and slide down the stairs on my belly. Looks like fun! I can tell Mama is nervous about it! He is already walking. Maybe he can teach me that cool trick too!




Something else that has been fun is a new game called, "Emily, where is your ___?" Mama and Dada ask me where some of my body parts are and I love to point them out! They tell me I am pretty smart! I can find my hair, ear, tongue, belly button, and toes! Oh, I can also find all those parts on Mama and Dada too! They keep asking me to find my "nose" and I don't have a clue what they are talking about!

Eskimo kisses are pretty great too. Mama has been teaching me how to give those kind of kisses when she gives me a bath. I love to stick my face up to hers and feel her wiggle her nose back and forth against mine! It tickles!!!

Another good time at Sunday school! This time, instead of crawling on my knees and pushing the walker toy, I stood and pushed it around! It won't be long until I can walk like Will!

Well, there is my wrap up of the last few weeks! More to come next week!
I love you,
Emmy

P.S. I had a "bad hair day" recently, but I actually thought I looked kinda cute!

Happy Birthday To Me!!!

Image
Can you believe that I'm one year old? I really can't--this year has really flown by! I'm sorry it's been longer than a week since my last post--I've just been so busy planning my birthday party, which is this Saturday at Potomack Lakes Sportsplex Playground. My mama's been working her tail off too, getting everything ready and organized! Today was wonderful (except for about an hour and a half right in the middle--more on that later)! I woke up this morning and Dada was still here--I woke up to him and Mama singing Happy Birthday to me! After that, Mama and I hung out and Dada went to work. We had a really fun morning--I lotioned my skin and brushed my hair, had breakfast and a bottle, and played. After that, I took a nice, long two-hour nap. So relaxing! Then the not-so-fun part of my day started. Mama loaded me up in the car and drove me to Dr. Fischelberg's office. Dada met us there, so I knew this was not going to be fun (if it was going to be a quick t...

Trip to the big "D"

Image
Well, I am back from Dallas. I had a really good time seeing all my family! Mama and Dada kept me really busy! On the flight to Dallas, I was proud of myself...I did really well for being a kid who likes to crawl and move a lot! Dada walked me up and down the aisles and I made a few friends while I was at it! All kinds of people think I am pretty cute and I have to agree with them! When I got to Grammy's house on Thursday, I thought I had died and gone to heaven! There was so much floor to crawl on!!! Even though it was hardwood, I surprised everyone as I went in circles around the kitchen and through the bedrooms. I found I new game I really like...I find something with a smooth bottom and while I am on my knees, I push it around on floor (like I did with the laundry basket!). Very fun game! Oh...and I loved seeing Maggie...aka "baaboo". (That's what I call puppies right now!) We were good playmates for the weekend. I also went swimming! I really was a great swimmer ...

More Broccoli Please!!

Image
Tonight was such a big night...I just had to write to tell everyone about it! After I finished my dinner of chicken, cheese, bananas, grapes, and watermelon I played a little on the floor. Mama and Dada were fixing their dinner...salmon, wild rice, and broccoli. They sat down on the couch to eat while I played, but I started smelling something quite delicious from their plates! I stood up by Mama and started reaching for her food, in hopes she would share some with me. I really wanted to try the "adult" food. First, she gave me some rice on her fork and I loved it. She gave me more and more, but I noticed something green on her plate...it looked like a tree. I reached for it and she said "I don't think you are going to like this" but she let me try it anyways. I LOVE BROCCOLI!!! It had a little lemon juice on it and I thought it was great! I kept asking...whining...reaching for more and she was so happy that I liked it so much. Then, I saw that Dada had some gre...
