It's been a while since I have posted and I have a bunch of pictures that I need to upload but in the meantime I thought I would let you know what's been going on in our little world. We have had a busy few weeks and since coming home from Maine we took a trip with Mimi and Papa to East Hampton to visit Uncle Jared and our cousins and aunt and uncle. The weather was beautiful and we had lots of fun sitting by the pool, visiting the beach and eating, what would a vacation be without gaining 5 pounds! We went to our town labor day parade (pictures to follow) and hosted our friends for my 10th year high school reunion. We have been busy, but having lots of fun.
Since this is Emily's blog I guess I should update you on what she has been doing lately :) Her language has exploded over the past few days. She is now trying to repeat almost every word we are saying and if she doesn't try to say it you can tell she is thinking about it. Her favorite words now are Baby, Ball, Dirty & BB for Blueberry. I guess it's time to watch what we say!
She has also started copying hand gestures, actions, expressions, etc. It's very fun because now I realize some of the actions that I do that I didn't even realize. The other day I was telling a friend a story when I looked down and noticed Emily moving her hands around and nodding as I was talking. I hadn't even realized I was even talking with my hands.
If I point to something and ask her to get it, she points and walks right towards it. She understands so much these days, it's scary because I sometimes don't understand how she even knows what I am talking about. I guess kids really are sponges.
I will get all the pictures up soon, but for now here is a little taste of what we have been "dealing" with lately...
I guess I put the Puffs on too low of a shelf in the pantry because as I was making dinner I turned around to hear laughter and a smiling girl with her hand in the container.
Emily Says Baby!
She loves to stand on her tip toes!
