Emma has done a few new things this past week or so. She started standing on her own. She also got in her first, first year molar. She has also started using the ledge on the wood burning stove in the living room (we never use it) as a chair and is as proud as can be when she can sit there with her feet flat on the floor. She just giggles when she sits on it, then she will stand, then sit back down. Makes her feel like such a big girl.
We went to Walmart Monday. When I got her out of the car seat and headed into the store, she looked up and seen where we were and got all excited and said “Walmart!” just as plain as can be. It was so funny.
She likes my niece Laura. She started calling her “Laurla” It was so cute.
Aunt Terri bought her a Pooh bear water baby for her birthday. Terri won’t be here for it so she took Emma to the toy aisle to see what she likes. I told her she isn’t into the dolls and such, but likes the interactive toys with the bells and whistles and lights. She was going to get her a electronic book that Emma loves to play with and the water baby for Emilee. Emma grabbed onto that water baby and wouldn’t let go though, so Terri picked out another one for Emilee and gave Emma the pooh bear one. I bought her the book anyway.
Emma stayed over night with me on Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights. I thought she would start getting fussy but she didn’t until Monday morning. She didn’t wake up with her usual ear to ear grin so I figured she was missing her mom and dad. She seen them Saturday during the wedding and a short time at the car wash on Sunday after we got back from Rapid City. When Brianna came in on Monday morning, Emma gave her some loves then went on to play with her toys. When Jordan drove up though, she crawled to the door and laughed and smiled. Brianna was a bit put out that she was more excited to see Jordan, but I think it is more on how Jordan and Emma interact compared to how Brianna and Emma interact. Jordan gets her excited with his voice and how he teases her, Brianna, like me, gives her loves and a much calmer greeting, so in turn she also gives us a much calmer greeting. In any case I am glad that she is comfortable enough with me and my house that she can stay here without getting upset.
Brianna is going to become a homemaker for a while. I will miss Emma being here each morning, but I think that there is nothing that compare to a mom being with her baby full time. I hope they can keep within their budget to afford this.
