One Day Old...
One Year Old...
Two Years Old... January 6Th
Yes, Emily is Two. Yes, she is still my baby. I know all of them are still my babies, but she is still an actual baby, at least to me. The past two years have been crazy as she has grown and been able to learn. Emily's personality has really come out this past year and it is awesome. She is so sweet and loving. She also likes to be the center of attention.
Two year stats:
Weight: 26 lbs. (41%)
Height: 34 Inches (65%)
Head Circumference: 67 1/2 CM (50%)
The Doctor said she is right on track to be the same height as me, sorry little one.
Here are some of the things about Emily is this past Year:
1. She finished both Physical and Speech Therapy!!!!
2. She began to say words and just in the past weeks as begun to string words together like "help me momma"
3. She love love loves to sing.
4. She really also loves to dance.
5. She is insanely jealous. She cannot stand for me to snuggle Abby, Brigham and Seth for that matter. She screams and climbs all over them until the relent and then she plops herself on me.
6. She has gotten most of her teeth and experiments with biting her siblings.
7. She again had surgery on her ears because of the excessive number of ear infections after her tubes fell out. She had another set of tubes put in and her adenoids taken out.
8. She loves animals, that is she loves to look at them. Touching or petting them is another story.
9. She loves Abby and Briggs. She calls Briggy "Gigi" which is adorable and asks where Abby and Brigham are all the time.
10. When she goes to bed she has to have her plug, blanket, baby and monkey....or else.
11. She gets into Everything! I cannot turn my back for a moment or she is on the table, into the fireplace, digging in my make up, inspecting the toilet, you name she will get into it.
12. She hasn't quite gotten a handle on sharing. She cannot stand for anyone to have anything she could possibly want to play with in the future.
13. The first thing she does when she wakes up is asks for breakfast and ask where Abby is.
14. She absolutely hates to have her ears checked. Whenever we walk into the doctor she covers her ears. Then when its time to check, well she has to be pinned down.
15. She is pretty good natured, she is really good with others and only cries for a few minutes when we leave her.
16. She has the cutest laugh. She loves to watch shows and giggle. Not to mention tackle Abby and Briggs which she thinks is a great source of entertainment.
17. She is really good at eating on her own. I typically give her any meal and in general she feeds her self with adult utensils. I rarely give her kiddie spoons.
18. She is a blood hound when it comes to food. If she thinks your headed to the kitchen, she is on you like a hawk. She loves to eat, there is no doubt about it.
19. She hates water. If I give a Sippy cup of water she throws it back at me.
20. She has recently learned to throw tantrums. Nothing like Abby or Brigham ever did, but she has a flare for the dramatic. She has a pair of lungs on her and she wants you to know it. But, the problem is its usually too cute or funny to get mad at. Not always but generally.
This little girl really is such a special addition to our family. All of us absolutely adore her. Abby cannot stand for Emily to be in trouble and Brigham loves to help her. She has Seth and I wrapped around her little fingers (although I know Seth wouldn't admit it.) Everyone she encounters just loves her. She is such a little doll and a light in our lives. Happy Birthday Emily. We love you more than you can ever know and look forward to the years to come.
