6 months old

My Name is Emma.

I am 6 months old.

My Best Friend is still Madelyn.

I can now ride in the car without screaming my head off. My Mother is very proud of me for this. I will cry every now and then when my parents keep me out past dark. But really, it's their fault. I should be at home in my bed by that time.

My Mother says that she thinks I just might be the happiest baby. Ever.

I can roll over now. Back to belly and belly to back. I was at my Grandma S house. Mommy was working. And Grandma was very proud of me when my Mommy got back from work. Grandma couldn't wait to show off my new trick.

I love my family. They can make me laugh and smile all the time.

My Mommy likes to try and feed me  food.

She made me try bananas.

I really didn't like them mashed up.

But then she gave them to me cut up and I liked that MUCH better.

I have tried, carrots, green beans (yuck!! I did NOT like those!) oatmeal ( no thank you) and sweet potatoes. My favorite is sweet potatoes. My Mommy says I am a smart girl, bc sweet potatoes are her favorite to. And she told me that I would learn to like green beans.

Mommy has let me suck on watermelon and I liked that. She said that I am going to try asparagus and then some squash.

My Mommy says that I am a squawker. Sometimes I will talk so loud. My parents just look at me and laugh.

My Mommy hopes that my 1st word will be Mama. She walks around the house going....Mamamamama.  But Daddy thinks my first word will be Dada. So he says to me all the time....DADADADADA.

I am learning to sit up now. I can sit by myself for just a few minutes. But Mommy is always close so I don't fall and hurt myself.

Everyone is telling Mommy that in no time I will be crawling. And I have been trying to get up on my knees. But boy is that hard!! Mommy doesn't like it when people say that I will be crawling. She says that she is just enjoying having me be a baby.

I am still plagued with Eczema. My Mommy took me to the doctor last week. The doctor helped with knowing how to treat it. Although she said that my eczema isn't related to my food allergies. Which Mommy thinks it is.

My favorite song is A bushel and a peck. Mommy sings it to me all the time. Mommy whispers it in my ear and I get really quiet and listen to her when she sings it to me.

Mommy is still my favorite person. I like to cuddle on her lap and put my head on her shoulder. Mommy talks to Jesus all the time and says how thankful she is for me. And what a blessing I am to our family.

One of my favorite parts of the day is dinner time. Mommy puts me in the bumbo on the kitchen table and I just watch everyone eating. I laugh and smile at everyone. Mommy says that I bring a lot of joy to every one's heart.
