May 2012 - Emma is 7 Months!

Emma is officially on summer break from school and the summer fun is just beginning!  At 7 months old she is now sitting on her own and loves sitting on the floor to play with her toys and the dogs.  She loves having picnics with her little picnic set, playing peek-a-boo and listening to music.  When we play peek-a-boo with her, she giggles up a storm! 

Emma is so close to crawling but it hasn't happened just yet.  She scoots, gets up on all fours and looks like she really wants to move but hasn't figured out the next step quite yet. Maybe next month we'll have exciting news to report! 

Emma made Mother's Day extra special for her mommy.  We went to a special Mother's Day service at church and got a mother/daughter picture taken.  Emma also made a card at school complete with footprints and a picture, and even got Mommy an iPad!  She is now looking forward to Father's Day in June when she'll get to celebrate her Daddy. 

Since the weather is starting to get hot here in Arizona, we broke out the baby pool this week and Emma loves splashing around in the water with her toys.  She even got to have a pool 'play date' this past week and played with a couple of her little friends in the water. So much fun!!! 

We hope everyone has a great summer!
