New Tricks

Emma has a whole new bag of tricks!!
She can now:
*Sit up - she can go from laying on her belly, turn to her side then push herself up so that she's sitting! Because of this new trick her mattress has been dropped to the lowest level in her crib!

*Eat table food - she started spitting out her baby food and playing with the mess! Because of this she now eats "big girl food"! She still gets a bottle, but other than that... no baby food, please!

*Army crawl - she is officially crawling around the house! Because of this the boys usually don't get to play where they want. If the kids had it their way they would either play in the dining room or the boys' room all together. But since I can't keep an eye on Emma in either of those rooms they have to play in the TV room!

In her new bag of tricks she also likes to: steal her brothers' cookies at snack time, go around the house in her walker (which we call the "walka-walka"), and twist the seat in her exosaucer so it looks like she's dancing!

She's growing so fast and learning new things so quickly! I'll let you know when she adds more to her bag of tricks!

I'll blog soon about Christmas stuff... just wait until you hear what Colin calls Santa Claus!!
