8 months

WOW!!! Emma is now 8 months old and it is hard to believe how fast our baby girl is growing up. These days things change with Emma from day to day and sometimes even hour to hour. We just love watching her change with these bear pictures and can't wait to see all 12 of them when all is said and done. This month she seemed scared of the bear and kept her arm bent so she wouldn't have to touch it. In the world of Emma the bottle is still a battle(she is fighting Daddy with all her guts as I type), she is still on stage 2 baby food and prefers the ones that are more of a watery cosistency, she did try big people food over Thanksgiving. Her speech therapist had suggested starting to give her little things her and there she had mashed potatoes - gagged, sweet potatoes- loved, corn casserole - liked, biscuit/roll - loved, and pumpkin pie - ABSOLUTELY LOVED. Now these were all VERY small amounts, but she enjoyed feeling like a big girl. She is still getting up on her knees and rocking, but still no crawling other than her mastered Army Low Crawl. She is becoming more "talkative" these days. We will be putting up the Christmas tree with Cloey this weekend so we will see what type of trouble she gets into with it up. While I am sure there are a ton of other things I could write about I am headed to check and how she is eating for her Daddy. She continues to be our miracle and blessing(along with her wonderful big sister) and we thank God every day that we have such wonderful girls to call our daughters.
