Here are her latest milestones...
She rolls both ways to get around - no crawling yet.
She can sit-up fully unsupported and rarely falls over.
She is a da-da-da-da-da girl.
She reaches out for toys and for my hair/lips/nose.
She is very interested in everything around her - constantly wanting to touch things.
She recognizes Ken and I. When we pick her up from school, she get very excited to see us. This is an awesome feeling.
She loves baby food - sweet potatoes, green beans and mixed berries are her favorite.
She can hold her bottle, to feed herself.
She has started to grab at the side of the crib, as if she's interested in pulling herself up. But she has no idea she is capable of it.
I could go on and on with this list, but I will stop myself.
We did have a little scare at school this month. Her teacher pointed out a little rash Em had and told us she thought it might be "hand, mouth, foot" disease. Which is highly contagious. It scared the ba-jeezies out of us and we took her to the doctor the next morning. We found out that there is a reason why teachers are not paid a doctors salary. Emma did not have "hand, foot, mouth" disease. However, she did have an ear infection and a little case of eczema. Another example of what an extremely good baby Emma is, she never cried or acted like her ear was hurting her. Even the doctor was impressed. But nothing a little amoxacilin can't cure. We are very thankful that her teacher mis-diagnosed her or Emma could have gone on for quite some time with an ear infection.
We are having a ball watching our little princess grow up. She is the highlight to our day and God couldn't have blessed in a better way than Emma Grace White!
