It's been a while since we've posted, so here goes. Emerson has pushed through her 6th tooth recently (we just discovered it tonight). She also threw up for the first time at daycare this past Wednesday, which resulted in Daddy turning around to pick her up. We've been working on "thank you" with her recently, which she tries to reciprocate in her own little language, very cute.

I snapped these pictures of her playing in her room, somehow the little stinker managed to pull herself up on her toybox.

Emerson Olivia is 10 Months Old!!




This picture with the sign thing is proving to be more & more difficult as Emerson gets older. She's more interested in eating the sign then sitting pretty for her picture. Oh well! Here is what we managed to get this month.

How Big is Emerson?


The answer of course is SOOOOO BIG! Just a few minutes ago while eating her dinner, Trista and I thought we would try to show her the "So Big" trick. Little did we know....she already knew it! She must have learned it at daycare! Oh well. While eating lunch at daycare today, Emerson decided to help herself to Gavin's (a 19 month old) jelly sandwich. Word is she wouldn't give it back and ate it herself. Can you say asserting her independence?
We did teach her how to clap this weekend. After she feeds herself, Mommy and Daddy reward her with a resounding "Yeah!" and a round of applause. She thinks she's such a big shot when she claps for herself and throws us a huge smile.

Bath Time




Bath time is quickly becoming one of Emerson's favorite activities. She loves to sit in the warm water and splash her arms and feet. She also received many new bath toys for Christmas and has been busy getting to know them. Here are some pictures of a recent bath night.
