April 2012 - 6 Months Old

Little Emma Grace seems to be growing by leaps and bounds lately.  Daddy took her to her 6 month doctor's appointment and she weighed in at 17 pounds (70th percentile) and measured 27 inches long (90th percentile). 

Emma is getting so close to sitting up on her own.  She can hold herself up for a few seconds and seems to be liking being in that position more and more.  She is still rolling and scooting around on her play mat and is becoming quite mobile! 

Not much new to report in the food department other than Emma's first experience with yogurt was not a good one!  Poor baby got so sick from it. Guess we won't be trying that again for a while, as we don't want to watch her have to go through that again. :(  She got a new high chair this month, and she loves it.  Mommy and Daddy love it too because it makes feeding her so much easier! 

Emma celebrated her first Easter this month. We took her to church and then she got to play with her new toys and read the new books she got in her Easter baskets.  No candy this year!  We put her down on the floor in her Bumbo so she could watch the dogs do their Easter treat hunt. She is totally fascinated by the dogs so she loved watching them running around looking for their puppy treats.

Now we are just counting down the days until summer break!  The last day of school for Emma and Mommy is May 23rd and then we will get to be home together every day for the whole summer. :)
