6 months and growing

Emery and Daddy Emery eating. Yuck!

Em with her Tottenham gear on, playing with Daddy.

She grew out of her original Halloween costume, so we found this black cat onesie at Walmart.

Emery and Mommy on the first really cold day. Brrrr!

Wow! I cannot believe that Emery is already 6 months. Each month I tell her that she is big enough and she doesn't need to get any bigger. Yet, she continues to grow and I find myself enjoying her more and more each month. Recently we have been trying rice cereal, green beans, and squash. I can't say she has a favorite right now, because she really doesn't have the whole eating thing down. She will let me put it in her mouth, and then she just lets is pool with her saliva at the front of her mouth before letting it slip on out of her mouth. All the while, making a horrible face!

She has also been rolling over more. She first rolled over a few times at four months, and then lost interest. Within the last two weeks, we have been putting her toys farther and farther from her, forcing her to roll over, and she does! However, she still has trouble getting that darn arm out from under her. We have also been sitting up on the couch. We have to have something behind us for support. She does well, leaning forward, and not falling over, then she gets excited and pushes back and falls over. Anytime now...

She continues to put any and everything in her mouth. I think her favorite thing at the moment is my hair. You wouldn't think 3 seconds would amount to much but when I pull it from her grasp, I have a very soggy mess. Hey, if it makes her happy... Patty cake is a favorite now, too. She loved the clapping. When we stop to roll it up and throw it in the pan, her smile fades and then explodes again once the clapping continues. We have enjoyed our time with her so much and try to hold on to every second because it goes way too fast.

I am sorry that I have not posted pictures in a while, our computer takes forever to download. So, here are a few to catch up with. Enjoy!
