Cassie came over and watched Emma while Jordan and Brianna went out for New Years Eve. I was working so I couldn’t keep her. Cassie brought over party hats, confetti, Champaign glasses, cream soda and big diamond rings. They had a regular little party, just the two of them. Emma loved it! They both were asleep by 8:30pm though, so much for seeing in the New Year!
Emma is learning more and more words. Some we would rather she didn’t learn though. She likes to push the buttons on the TV so when she turned the TV off, then turned it back on, it went into the “locating remote” mode. During this time the TV is muted. We had lost the remote it locates long ago so all it did was mute the TV for a few minutes. I said “Oh no Emma, you broke the TV, it doesn’t talk anymore” Her eyes got a bit worried and she said “oh Shi..” She didn’t get the t sound on it but it was very clear on what she was saying! Brianna and I looked at each other and said “did she just say what I think she said?” I haven’t heard it again from her though, good thing.
Today she was over while Brianna cleaned Energy Electric. We had a fun time playing with different toys. She went back to her bedroom here and I heard her yelling for me, not crying, just yelling. I went back there and found she had opened one of the drawers, finding a wooden puzzle I put in there until she was old enough for it and as she tried to get it out, she shut her arm in the drawer and couldn’t get it out. She wasn’t hurt, just stuck. I opened the drawer and she took her arm out, rubbing it where it was stuck, glaring at the drawers. She did very well putting the puzzle together though. She seemed to be able to match up the shapes and colors pretty well. I think a few more times of playing with it she will be able to put it together pretty fast. I will start watching for more puzzles like that.
Emma and Brianna came to the restaurant tonight. She looked so cute in the jacket Aunt Pam gave her for Christmas and the hat I bought for her in the fall. She went around to each of my tables with me, checking on drinks and how things were. Soon she was going around to each of the tables on her own, checking on them… or maybe hoping they would share their food with her, your guess is as good as mine!
Emma let me rock her to sleep today for her nap. She cuddled up to me and fussed when I laid her on her couch to let the dog back in. She took a nice nap then came back afterwards and cuddled for a bit until she was ready to get up and play. Tara woke her up or she would probably have slept for another half hour or so. I think Tara wanted her playmate to play. They are so funny. Emma would take one of Tara’s toys and Tara would chase her and get it back, then run and jump up on my lap with it. Emma would come over and steal it back from Tara, she never would have gotten it if Tara didn’t want to play the game with her. Emma would get it and start running, laughing all the way and Tara would chase her and steal it back. I was amazed how Tara would be very, very careful not to get little fingers, which at times had to be hard. They get along so good. Kevin loves it when he comes home and Emma is here. He can see her and Tara at the door, Tara barking and Emma barking right along with her, both standing and pounding (or pawing) at the door. Emma is also into giving Tara kisses. She seems to like to lick when she kisses now. I keep telling her that is eww. She just laughs. She is so full of personality. She is so smart and so pretty and so ornery! She is one very loved little girl!
