11 months... 29 days closer to Party Time!!!

Emma is 22 pounds. She was close to 25 pounds, but came down with a horrible virus that lasted a few weeks (lots of "stuff" leaving her body-to put it nicely). Anyways, she is back to normal and active as ever!! Emma is now walking parallel to anything she crawls up to and can walk along!!! She even lets go for a moment and stands solo! I can walk holding one of her hands and she will walk with me! She has eaten ravioli, bananas, peaches, spaghetti, English muffins, toast, crackers, potatoes, carrots, oatmeal, rice, eggs, macaroni and cheese, and a little birthday cake from daddy's birthday... She is making many different sounds when she communicates, and has begun shaking her head "no" when she isn't excited about a certain food, situation, or what you have to say! Haha... Not sure she knows what she is doing, but I'm sure you get what I mean. She gets pretty frustrated when she is tired and likes to pinch, grab, and tear at MY skin. She will grasp what she is holding or make a fist and just squeeze as hard as she can, hey, she is just figuring things out, it'll pass!!!!!!!!! Until she is at the terrible twos and possibly all the way until she is a teenager... Haha... On a more serious note she is the best thing that has ever happened to Bo and I and we couldn't be happier. We both look forward to spending as much with her as possible and love her to death! Until next time... 30 short days and the 1 year old blog post!!!!! Many more to come!
