My Tweeter Girl

Our 15 month-old little pumpkin is experiencing a VOCAL EXPLOSION. She literally repeats almost anything you say to her and is actually very clear in pronunciation. Her new feat is a couple of "multiple word sentences" such as "here you go" (when she hands us something), "No, Jack" (obvious), "I Need," and "Hi, Pop." I will video her soon... Emma can say everyone's name in our family except for the G's - Grandma and Grammy...we are working on it!
She is also great at saying "Tank U" when you hand her something and then very clearly saying "Please" when she wants something. Little Miss Manners!! Unfortunately, with the good, comes the bad...Jack has taught her "No" (VERY clear and adamant!), "Mine," and "Poop." I try not to laugh when she says poop, but it takes every bit of strength I have, as it really is cute in her little voice!
Here is a little clip of her talking...it is from 2 weeks ago and she has a ton more words...you can also view some of the constant brother/sister battles that take place nightly in the bathtub!

Emma is a true delight - different than Big Brother in many ways, we are finding. A TRUE Girly Girl (she loves her baby dolls, her purses, and now LipGloss!) and is a woman who knows what she wants! Having her "use her words" more is really helping with the sassiness and brings her more immediate satisfaction. She does get jealous when Mommy or Katie is holding or playing with Jack alone, so we need to work on that. On the flip-side, Emma is a MANIAC to keep up with! So, so, so active and all over the place. She is very close to running and is FAST - people are amazed at what we let her do at the playground, but she LOVES it and is a little dare-devil. The bruises, scrapes, and cuts on her legs are attest to that...the girl will not be modeling anytime soon.
Caught in the shower with the lipgloss - and she knew how to apply - So Guilty!
How adorable is this tutu swimsuit? Thanks, Grammy!
She and Jack are getting along great...Emmy is so TOUGH. He is definitely testing his boundaries with her - pushing, head-butts, etc., but she usually just takes it in stride and then goes and tries to comfort him when Jack gets put in Timeout for his actions. She does NOT like it when Jack cries or gets in trouble.
The girl eats like a horse (She eats all day long, is obsessed with water bottles/drinking, and I believe she has surpassed Jack in food consumption. Her favorite foods currently are cheese ("CHEEEESE!!!"), peanut butter, blueberries, avocado, and pretzels. Her body is hilarious, and Katie made a good point the other day that she is a little Q-Tip - long skinny body, with a cute head on top! She still only has 6 teeth, but has become more and more smiley, and is still our cuddly baby!
Oh, And....her hair is long enough for a baby bop and mini-pony! It is getting blonder and blonder, and this week at the lake, she may be platinum with a french braid! :-)
I just love her to pieces and can't get enough of her cutie little face!

Happy 4th!!




So far we have...caught 3 fish, gone 2 days without a nap (Jack), learned 2 new words (bike & swim), gotten our own little chairs (Ems obsession), eaten our weight in corn on the cob, gotten blonder, and made some great memories....

Havin' Fun!!
