The Craker Crew: Month 17

Emmecat, if you could stop getting so big and grownie, that would be nice. You are still my hysterical little human.... You crack me up, kid! A typical Emory moment....tonight, I was laying with you and Ella, hoping you girls would go to sleep easily. You kept holding up your hand and studying your fingers.... I had no clue what you were up to... Then, you took your thumb and put it in your mouth... You kept doing it over and over again... You were trying to figure out what is so great about this thumb sucking thing is that Ella does...ha! You want to do anything and everything she does. Its really sweet to me and Daddy, but your sister finds it really annoying....

You and Ella have really started playing well together and it's so sweet... At least for 5 minutes until one of you males the other mad.
You still aren't talking much... You have a lot to say, but make funny noises and point instead of words right now. Your pediatrician says it's fine... So, I guess I'll believe her! I remind myself that when you do start talking, it'll never stop, and I think you'll talk a lot and probably be pretty loud, so I'll enjoy it for now.

You also get ahead of yourself when you move....it's like your legs won't keep up with your upper body.... This causes lots of wipeouts...it's pretty funny most of the time.

You also have decided that other people besides mommy are cool too... You have finally realized it's ok not to be permanently attached to my hip... Thank you Jesus! Don't get me wrong, you are still a mama's girl, but you give me a break from time to time...:)

I love you to pieces my baby love, I can't believe you are almost one and a half... Wow...
