16 Months and Growing Up so Fast!

Our little Emma Grace is getting so big so fast....she seems to change daily and is getting quite independent!  At her most recent doctor's appointment, she weighed in at 23.8 pounds and was 31 inches tall.  

Some of Emma's favorite things to do are dance, play outside with the rocks, read Wheels on the Bus and Row, Row, Row Your Boat, and play with her little friends at school.  Of course, she still loves playing with the dogs.  

It has been a lot of fun watching Emma learn to talk.  Her favorite two words are 'no' and 'up.'  Her answer to almost everything is no, emphasized by shaking her head.  She also says: dada, dog, mama, baby, down, and nose.  

Like any toddler, her food preferences change almost daily; one day she will devour something and the next she won't touch it. It's been fun trying new things with her though.  One thing she loves consistently are scrambled eggs and Daddy's pancakes on 'Pancake Sunday.'  Like her mommy, she also still loves fruit!

As she gets closer to becoming a big sister (in just a month and a half!), we talk about mommy having a baby in her belly.  Sometimes Emma will put her hand on her own belly and say 'baby.'  It's quite funny!  She has been practicing pushing her stuffed animals and baby doll around in her little baby stroller too. :)

We hope everyone is doing well and will update you when the new baby arrives.
