That's right.... EmJ is now 9 months old! I can't believe it! :o) She is so fabulous and so much fun right now. We really enjoy watching her learn and grow and be so stinkin' cute! EmJ has been giving kisses for a long time now - and she's so cute about it! Just ask her for a kiss, and she'll lean in (open-mouth and all) and give you a kiss. She also kisses when we say, "What does Mommy need?" or "What does Daddy need?" Thanks to Daddy for teaching her that and to Kimmi for the idea! :o) She also kisses when you tell her you love her, which is pretty much her way of saying "I love you too!" LOVE IT!!!
She's been doing the "So Big!" thing now when we ask her how big she is - it's pretty cute. Here's a picture of "so big" - she's great! She also waves at anyone and anything. She'll wave hi and bye-bye and she's pretty good at it. It's one of her favorite things to do right now. She's over her stranger anxiety totally now (we're still getting over the separation anxiety with mom) and she loves to wave at everyone. If someone
waves at her or talks to her she gets a huge grin, but once they turn away she usually loudly tries to get their attention again. It's pretty funny!

It's pretty funny!Some other fun things she does now - she's been clapping for awhile and has recently figured out how to clap with her hands open all the time. When you say, "Yea, EmJ!" she squeals and claps and grins! She also signs "more" like a pro - and is so good about doing it when you ask her to. She just recently learned to sign "all done" too. We'
re working on "please" and "thank you" now. Another fun thing - she can pick up her own food and feed herself now - woo-hoo!!! She's also drinking from a sippy cup on her own - she sometimes needs help lifting it up enough, but she's doing awesome.

We just got back from Oklahoma to visit our best friends and Chloe is a crawling queen - and I think EmJ watched enough to want to do that! She's really funny because when she's done playing with her toys, she'll throw them out of her reach. Then she makes me laugh even more because when she wants a toy she'll reach and reach to get it. I got a couple of funny pictures - so many times I think she's going to flop over (and s
he sometimes does!), but often she keeps her balance. She's hilarious! She's also just started to get very interested in pulling herself up. She's been doing it for a long time with us when we put our fingers out for her to hold and tell her to "stand up!" But now, when you're near, she'll grab your fingers, your shirt, anything she can, and stand up on her own. It's fabulous!

I think that brings you all up to date on EmJ... she's pretty much the cutest and most fantastic baby ever! :o)
