Big girl...

Emmi just amazes me more and more each day.

Her things lately have been:
- I do not have to follow her on the playground equipment. She just walks up to the big slide herself. She also likes to try swinging on the big kid swings. It will be nice when I meet up with some of the moms since I will actually be able to maybe have a little bit of conversation.
- The other thing is she now knows how to open the fridge. This coming weekend when we go grocery shopping I am going to pick up self serve type snacky things to put in the drawers. Then each night stock the drawer for her daily allowance. :) Otherwise we will have a day like today where she took 3 bites of a peach and then went to get another one.
- She also loves to wash her hands. We have set up a little chair in the downstairs bathroom for her to be able to do it herself. Although we keep the door shut most of the time as I otherwise see her soaking the bathroom down.
- Books and more books she just can't get enough. At night we end up reading the same books over and over again. Same with naptime. Although during the day she is perfectly happy reading them by herself. It has been great since she knows a ton of animal sounds now since those seem to be her favorites. The cutest sound she makes is the Rooster, her cock a doodle do is hysterical. Plus she can count to 3 all thanks to reading.

BABY news- Cant forget that. Had my doctor appt this week(15 weeks) where I have only put on 3 pounds and the baby's heartbeat was 156. Our next one will be the ultrasound so be on the look out for the poll to appear in the next month.

Here she is from over the weekend when she was helping Jacob get ready for his trip to Diablo. I am sure it makes Cousin Beau proud.
