It's summer time with Mommy!!!!!

This past Monday, June 4, 2012 started summer where I get to stay home with Emma!!!  So far it has been a busy one.  We have lots planned this summer including relaxing, shopping, witnessing her firsts, enjoying some pool time, planning her 1st birthday, and just spending time together!

Emma is now 7 1/2 months old!!!!!  At her 6 month appointment she weighed a little over 21 lbs. and was 27 in. long!  She can sit up by herself!!!  She still loves to jump around in her jumperoo. She has enjoyed some baby pool time with Grandma/Grandpa, cousins and family. She is not crawling yet... but I did witness her roll over from her tummy to her back yesterday!!!  It sort of freaked her out though and she started to cry, but not for long.  Her legs are SUPER strong.  She would rather stand with support than enjoy tummy time.  She is laughing a lot, smiles ALL the time, and has been cooing.  She is growing up so fast.  I hope this summer slows down so I can soak it all in!!
She loves to eat yogurt for breakfast, enjoy chicken/turkey (not so much beef), veggies, and fruit for lunch and dinner.  She still eats a bottle every 4 hours, but not as many ounces of formula as before. 

This past Monday we woke up pretty early.  I think Emma knew it was time to stay home because she woke up at 5am and wanted to play!!!  We played with toys on the floor, did some jumperoo, ate/drank breakfast, took a nap, and then it was time for Mommy to workout.  We went to the gym and she played in the Kid's Klub.  Next, we went grocery shopping!  We came home and unpacked, enjoyed some lunch, and took a nap together.  I did some cleaning and made dinner.  The day sure does go fast!
Tuesday was really busy!  I had a morning doctor appointment at 8:40am, so we had to leave pretty early because I rode in with all the work traffic to the Medical Center.  We went to the gym again after the appointment.  Emma was really tired (she took a nap in the car), but not in her bed which she (actually Mommy, haha) prefers!  We came home right after that and met Daddy for lunch at home.  I originally planned on doing some shopping, but Emma had such a busy morning I cancelled that.  I did things around the house the rest of the day and made dinner.  Emma and I read some books and played again in the afternoon.  This is when she rolled over for the 1st time!!!! GOOOO EMMA!
Today we played this morning.  We met Grandma at Lone Stare College where she works so she could visit, have lunch, and show her Granddaughter off to some work friends.  The visit was really nice.  Emma was told she was beautiful so many times.  I think Emma doesn't know her real name!! haha...Later, we went to Janie and Jack and I purchased 4 outfits and a bathing suit for her... they were having a SUPER sale!  Emma is now napping while I record this week's adventures!
