One of Emmie's future boyfriends (she has many prospects) tagged her last week. Braylon (Devrie's baby boy) posted all the things he likes to do. Emmeline is going to share a few of her loves:1. Emmie loves her bath time now. She squirms, kicks and smiles even when we enter the bathroom and I lay her on the rug to get the bath going. She knows it is coming and the anticipation kills her!
2. She loves to be held by mommy. The only chair that I can set her down in for more than 5 min. is the bumbo. However, when it comes to nap time, she pushes away from me and wants to work things out in her own bed. It is nice because she goes to bed by herself (and for those of you who know that she couldn't fall asleep without being wrapped up in burritos, straight jackets, etc., would be happy to know that she doesn't need that anymore. Thank goodness because she was getting too big and strong to wrap up!)
3. She has a special smile for daddy no matter how much grief she has given me all day. He makes her so happy.
4. She may be a music junkie like her dad. He calms her down many times by playing the guitar.
5. Emmeline loves eating her feet. What baby doesn't love that? Their little bodies are so out of proportion that they can just fold in half. How convenient to have 10 little toes right in the reach of both hand and mouth?
6. Emmie admires herself in the mirror and talks to herself as well. Jon says that he would do the same if he was as cute as she is.
7. She is starting to like stuffed animals---"Zander" the teddy bear and a little chick that "peeps" when you touch its feet. But most of all we ask ourselves, "Where would we be with out the bink?" That small plastic device gives her more comfort than any of the above 6 things combined.
8. I read books to Emmie but I'm not sure how into them she is (often she looks at everything but the book, cries, or tries to fall out of my arms). I keep reading! But there is one book called "Peek-a-boo" that she loves. I'm pretty sure it is because of all the pictures of babies. She smiles, coos and hits the book when she sees the babies. She is getting prepped for another baby in our home.....hahaha......don't get any ideas because it was a total joke (even though I do eat Saltines)!
That is our sweet Emmeline!

Yay! I'm so glad to hear that she outgrew the straitjacket! I hear you on the binky thing! There were times we would put a binky and food in front of Adalyn and she would choose the binky! Amazing! We have just weaned her off that and it was a painful process, but she's done with it now! I still think it's better than thumb-sucking, tho!
That was so much fun to read! She is so dang cute. Braylon would be a lucky man to date her. (in 21 years!!)
