This month has been a lot of fun watching our little blue eyes. It is somewhat nice that she wears her emotions on her sleeve like her Mother because it's pretty easy to know what she's feeling. We've all seen her furrowed brow look which cracks me up. Some think that she's being mean, but it really means "I'm confused at the current situation". In the picture below, Charlie was standing outside our big kitchen window and playing peek-a-boo with Emily trying to get her to smile at my request. The perplexed look came first and then of course she gave us a smile.
Emily took her first 2 steps totally by herself 3 weeks ago and has gained more confidence every day. She is mimicking our words more and more. She says "ca" for cat, "da" for Daddy, "Jaa" for Jack and recently started pointing to her ear and nose when you ask where they are. Her 3 favorite things right now are my keys, the tv remote and any working cell phone which of course we keep in the locked position. I'd say her favorite foods right now are fruit cups in cherry syrup and tomatoes.
