5 Months Old!





Today our girl is 5 months old!  It seems like yesterday we brought Emma home.  We are so lucky to be Emma's parents, we think she is a very special girl!  At the ripe old age of 5 months Emma has already made crafts including a foil sculpture and glitter mittens.  Yesterday she played with faux snow in the sensory pit at daycare and she has started to develop at rapid speed.  She has embarked on tasting new "dishes" as we start giving her baby food.  She has started to get the hang of it.  She makes the cutest "hmmmmmmmmm" noise after each bite and lets us know if we are shoveling it in fast enough.  Our little piggy currently weighs 16 pounds, 5 oz.  

Emma's favorite things at 5 months:
1.  Being held, always.  Everyone is shocked at how content she it being held.
2.  Eating!  Fav: sweet potatoes, pears and peaches
3.  Jumperoo!  She looks like a master DJ playing with all the gadgets 
4.  Bath time.  It used to be serious business, but now she likes to kick her feet non-stop!
5.  Daisy!

Emma's dislikes:
1.  Being put down
2.  Bubble gum flavored antibiotic inspired projectile vomiting 
3.  carrots

Major accomplishment:  Sleeping in her own bed.. in her own room.. all night!

Wow!!! I can't believe how time flies. She is getting so big. Geez with all those art projects, she really is going to to fancy daycare!! Maybe an early start will turn into a big paying art career and you can retire.
