Not much new to report on. Emma has been extremely pleasant recently. She had a small cold last weekend but got over it fairly quickly. She is getting much easier to put down to sleep to where sometimes she is reaching for her bed. She goes to bed at 7:00 PM every night which is nice. One of our favorite times with her is whenever she wakes up from a nap. 95% of the time, she is in the best of moods and so excited to see you.
We also got to celebrate Grandma Anderson’s birthday this weekend by going out to The Columbus Fish Market, so Happy Birthday Mom!
I’ll leave you with my new favorite picture of Kate and Emma.
Last weekend we had a small celebration with some friends and family for Emma’s birthday.
Here are a couple of updates on how much Emma has grown over the past few months:
- She started walking in November and is now all over the house getting into everything. She can even navigate up and down the stairs under supervision.
- She still takes 2 naps a day which mom is very thankful for.
- There aren’t too many foods that she doesn’t like, but she loves pastas and rice.
- She has just finished getting her 4th tooth. 2 front bottom and 2 front top.
- Her vocabulary consists mainly of Dada, Mama, Tsntsn (Samson) and a random collection of grunts for other requests.
So I made a new years resolution to myself to commit to updating our family blog once a week. 2012 will be a big year for the Anderson’s with Emma already having turned one and our second child coming into the world in July, so I wanted to use this space if for nothing else, a family journal.
Since I’m making this post on January 8th I’ve already missed a week, but we’ll start today with a short update. Emma turned 1 this week and here is a video I put together recapping her first year of life. Enjoy!
