Emalyn is now almost 10 months, but here are some shots from last month. She is fascinated by the fish and can stand and watch for a couple of minutes. We'll try to get her to say fish, and she'll imitate the sound "shhh, shhh". Close enough for me!
Emalyn refused to eat baby food, just like my others, so we've just been giving her very tender veggies and fruit and she loves feeding herself. I read on someone else's blog about this trick to get babies to eat the leftover stage 1 baby food. Peel back the lid and insert the straw and let them "drink" it that way. She figured out the straw within 10 seconds and loved it for a few chugs. Then she was done.
Ema's been raising her arms in the air when we say "yay!" and it's pretty cute. She can also give "high 5's". We're working on simple signs and I'm sure she'll get them soon. Gabriela could sign her few words at 10 months. We work on "more, milk, hungry, please, thank you, and sleep".
At her 9 month check up, she weighed in at 18 lb. 10 oz. and 28.5" long. I can't believe how little she is! I was looking up the stats on the other kids and they were 18 lbs at 4 months!! Anway, she's growing well and still a very laid-back baby and we love her tons :)
