Emily is 66 Weeks Old

Another week has passed. Emily is now 66 weeks old! We are enjoying watching her language develop and so is she! She is constantly pointing at things and saying what they are and copying everything we say. When we were at Grandma's house on Thursday she started Meowing like a cat. So now that is the sound every animal makes! We had a great weekend relaxing and barbecuing with family and Emily had a blast! She loves going new places and she got to chase dogs around most of the weekend too! We've got a busy summer ahead and I can't wait to see Emily experience it all! Here are some pics from our week...

Picking a pretty yellow flower.

65 Weeks Old

Emily is 65 weeks old, 15 months!! I have no idea where the time has gone. I think back to this time last year when I had a little baby and I can't believe how big she has gotten. Emily is walking and talking and wants what she wants when she wants it. She can't always tell me what she wants so it can be frustrating at times, but we eventually figure it out. Like when I pick up everything on the counter before I realize she wants a spoon from the drying rack. I am learning that I can't leave her cups around after I wash them because when she sees them she wants them all!!! She still has her 3 teeth and we are waiting for number four any day now! We had a nice relaxing weekend of yard work and Daddy and Emily had some bonding time while I went to Melissa's Sprinkle on Sunday. We are so excited for the newest family member to arrive! I'll post some pics from that in another post. So, here is week 65...

Emily loves spaghetti!

Emily got a package!

Aunt Barbara sent Emily one of Michael's old toys. They have both already had fun playing with it. Thank you!!!

Emily insists on using her spoon herself. She gets the idea, but the only problem is that most of the food doesn't make it into her mouth!

Chillin' in her new chair.

Playing with sticks while Daddy does yard work.

15 months old today!

Playing with the track. This is what was in the package. There is a lot more to it also, lots of fun!

64 Weeks Old!

Emily is 64 Weeks Old and is now the proud owner of 3 teeth! One of her top teeth finally popped through after dinner today. She is also our little parrot who repeats everything we say and is adding to her vocabulary every day. We are having so much fun playing and learning. Emily loves being outside, playing at the park, and her favorite toys are rocks and sticks! We had a nice weekend with family. Sunday, we went to Space Farms and Emily really had fun checking out the animals and watching Mommy feed them. The rocks at the zoo were pretty awesome too! Here are some pics of our fun this week...

At the park with her buddy AC.

63 Weeks Old

Emily is 63 Weeks Old. We had another week of fun! The weather was nice most of the week, so we got outside for some walking and park playing! Emily just loves running around, swinging, and going down the slide. She enjoys following the big kids around too. She'll be one of them before we know it! Emily is saying more and more words each day and just loves talking and pointing out things. We had a great time at a birthday party and my parents 30th anniversary party on Saturday. And we ended the week with a perfect Mother's Day. Here are some pics...

One of Emily's new favorite activities.

Climbing into her bin of blocks. Then back out again!

Having fun outside!

Out to lunch with Great Grandma.

The first time using restaurant crayons! It was great until she started eating them.
