Today, here is a list of Emmy's new little things that make her seem more and more like a little person. Most of these things fall under the category of 'normal baby things that are only exciting to parents', hehe, but I thought I'd share even so.
A particulary cute one to me is that she has been sucking her little thumb- we are hoping that means our days of running upstairs to put her pacifier back in her mouth during naps shall soon be but a memory. I used to suck my thumb as a little girl, so it is especially sweet to me. We'll try not to let it last till she is 11 though! :)
Also, she is now interested in toys and blankets, and likes to snuggle and chew on whatever she can get her hands on. ...She also likes to snuggle and chew and pull hair, which is a little less cute.
And lastly, she is now obsessed with our food! She watches us so intensely and curiously as we eat. I was hoping to wait a bit past the 6 month mark to begin introducing solids, but I don't think I'll be able to resist.
What fun to watch each stage and what joy she brings!
ReplyDeleteThat last picture is EXACTLY why I started giving Adalie solids. We were at a banquet where Jack was speaking and we were seated at the head table which happened to be elevated so that all could see us. I was holding Adalie and every time I took a bite, she got that face and then started to cry as the food passed her mouth and went to mine. Most of the guests at the banquet were older folks and the ladies just didn't understand. I caved to the pressure and am sorry for Adalie that I ruined her for life by giving her jello and mashed potatoes as her first food. (But I did go back and do it the right way after that day.)
This makes me smile and giggle.
ReplyDeleteSuch a precious little lady. Especially in the swing and the other one sucking her thumb. (Our 3 all sucked the thumb-and it DID make life much easier! :-)
