STATS

Weight: 21 lbs

Height: 29.5" 

(Both guesstimates)

Clothes: 18 months 

EAT

This girl is getting much pickier. Meals are becoming smaller and more ends up being fed to the dogs. She much prefers a liquid diet. But girlfriend does love her carbs. Bread, crackers, cereal are all favorites.

She still loves hummus, cheese, black beans, apples, peanut butter, eggs, pears, grapes, blueberries, raspberries, peas, green beans.

SLEEP

Sigh. I wish I could say that this has improved. She has slept until 5am twice which has been amazing. But will go back to waking up 4 times a night the next night. I'm exhausted. 

Still taking two naps a day.

Walking along furniture 

Walking with assistance

Dear Emme bug,

One year. It has been one year until you entered this world. It has been the fastest​ year of my life. I can't believe how much you have grown and changed. I know the years will continue to fly by. 

I feel like you have grown leaps and bounds this past month. You are pulling up on everything. You love to stand and you love to sit in the big chairs with your sister. You have been cruising along the furniture and climbing the stairs. Just recently you've started walking with assistance and I don't think it will be long until you're walking by yourself.

You also started signing within just a few days. It started with "milk" then you picked up "more" and "thank you" within a few days. You even sign "more milk" at night when you're ready for bed. 

You desperately want to be a big girl and play with the big kids. I know you will be running after them soon, but right now you get really frustrated when you can't do something that Charlee is doing. You get even more frustrated when she has something that you want. You're not very good at sharing right now.

But you are such a sweet snuggly girl. 

Love you sweet girl,

mommy
