HANDS!!!!

Emma has finally discovered her hands and has figured out how they work. She has been playing hand in hand for a while, but over the last couple of days she has been picking things up, hitting things to make noise, and successfully putting her thumb (and everything else) in her mouth on the first try. Last night I was giving her a bottle and noticed that she was holding on to both sides. I decided to let go and she held the bottle for a couple of minutes. It has been a lot of fun the last couple of days watching her realize that she can interact with the things around her. I have been pulling out a lot of toys to keep her occupied and think it is fun when she recognizes some of her favorites and smiles. It is hard to believe that she will be 3 months old next week!!

Miss Independent!

Emma has started using her thumb instead of her pacifier--we are glad that we do not have to take a pacifier away from her, we hope we will not have a big battle stopping the thumb sucking!!!

Does it taste like bananas?

The legs on this octopus make a crunchy sound. Emma REALLY likes that sound!

Wiped out after a very active play time!!!
