21 Months

I have not done a very good job of blogging lately. We have been very busy this last month. Emily Kathryn had many firsts this past month.....first plane ride, kissed her first boy, started MDO program two days a week, first haircut and met our new twin cousins for the first time.

Some things I'd like to remember about this last month include:

-- Taking our first plane ride to Orlando to visit my family. We had such a fun trip! The only part I'd like to forget is the plane ride home.

-- Emily Kathryn is TALKING up a storm. I love to hear her babble and I also love hearing her say such sweet things like "budder bye" which is butterfly and "dutch" when she wants you to sit beside her. She also recently learned the word "circle" at MDO and says it all the time as she finds circles everywhere we go.

-- When I drive up to Publix these days she starts saying "truck" in the parking lot which means she wants to ride in the the "truck-shaped grocery cart". Jordan was the one who introduced her to the "truck" first and now it's a must every time we visit the store.

-- She LOVES to climb into our bed after bathtime and watch a cartoon or play with books and puzzles. If Jordan and I are in the living room she makes sure to get our attention to let us know she wants to go back there.

--She has done really well at MDO. At first she carried her backpack the entire four hours. She's starting to settle in and will put it down during her stay, but when I arrive to pick her up it's the FIRST thing she runs for before we leave.

--She has become very affectionate and we love it:)

Here are a few pictures from this last month:

We spent a weekend at the beach with the Barrow Family. EmK decided to share her blanket with Grace:)

Emily Kathryn kissing Wells...I have a few pictures from this playdate and they are all so cute. These two play so well together probably because Wells never gets upset when Emily Kathryn takes his toy:)

It's football season....and looks like these two are in deep discussion over the season.

First Haircut! Emily Kathryn did so well. I went prepared to bribe her with tons of candy, but I didn't have to. She sat in the seat for Evan (who worked really fast) and enjoyed playing with all the hair clips.
