Emily is SUCH a sweet little girl. She will randomly come up to us and give us a hug, then go back to what she was doing. She "talks" a LOT during the day! She is usually very happy when she wakes up and is often content to talk to her animals in her crib for up to 30 minutes before she wants to get out. Emily gets VERY excited when Grandma Elvi comes over. She immediately starts taking out all of her toys to show to Grandma, and only has eyes for Grandma, even if Matt or I are at home. We love her so much, and are so grateful she is our little girl!
She is SUCH a cutie!! And I love her list of "likes." The wipe thing is too funny--Emma has a thing for wipes as well. Maybe a video on facebook of her saying those words? I bet bubble is especially cute.
ReplyDeleteAnd you give me hope for the naps and night sleep (though the past two weekends we've at least one nap each day that I've had to wake her because she was asleep for 2 hours).
This post is so fun! I love hearing all the things Ems is doing. Her pointing to her freckle is my absolute favorite! And Ems, your Aunt Anna still isn't too fond of tomatoes either:) I like sweet Emily alot...and I NEED to see her!
