I cannot believe Emma is already eight months old! She is growing so fast and has changed more in this past month than any before. She is actively crawling and doing her best to walk as soon as she possibly can. Her strong-willed and independent personality comes out more and more each day. It is just so fun to see her exploring new things and the excitement and joy she finds in a blade of grass, a dog, her ducky or the vacuum cleaner. I really don't have words to explain how much we adore and love her and are enjoying her every day!
She is enjoying some new toys that have been passed on to her. She particularly likes toys that she can use to stand by. She has no interest in sitting on the floor and playing. She has the bruises on her head to prove it. :)
I came in to get Emma up from a nap and she was just screaming. She had thrown ducky over the side and was distraught. Later this day she did that with all of her animals. Thankfully we haven't had to deal with this again yet.
I just love her tiny little nose!
Emma picked a blade of grass and proceeded to squeal with joy as she held it for the next 5 minutes. It was very sweet.
On Tuesday we went to the zoo with Aunt Amy, Matty, Will, Sam and Londy. It was a great outing and Emma loved the animals, but she loved the waterfalls the most. The animal that excited her the most was the African Hogs...she just shook and shook with excitement!
This is Emma waving at the monkeys. (Daddy was with us although he was the photographer and did not make it into any pictures.)
Just watching the lions sleeping in the sun.
So cute!
Here is an example of how Emma refuses to sit and play with her toys. She stands up to do everything.
This is the second try on a good 8 month picture outside...not much more successful...
All Emma wanted to do was crawl away.
So we tried pictures on the couch like every other month...not too successful there. She has a clover from outside in her hand. I could not get her to look at me.
All Emma wanted to do was crawl away.
She sat still for one picture. Notice the orange nose. Yellow vegetables will cause that if a baby eats more than one serving a day. Emma gets one or two servings of them a week and is still turning orange.
Check out all of Emma's dresses for the summer!!! It is so FUN to have a girl! We have been so blessed to share clothes from Mariela and Londy! THANK YOU!
