Emi first solid food

Enjoy it so much she went cross-eyed

The above three pics are actually meal #2 (2\2\2011)

So as most of you know January was a difficult month in the Carter household. From the flu to strep throat and loss of power for 72 hours, we were very happy to say goodbye to January and look to happier days in the months ahead. So on February 1st Emi had her first real food, Bananas. She loved it! This weekend we plan to introduce some rice cearal!

More Bumbo time

Her first time in a Bumbo seat! She very much enjoyed sitting up in it like a big girl.

Everyday Life...

Though the reflux is getting better we still have our moments!

My sweet Emi...

Scout has adjusted really quickly to being allowd on the couches!

smiles and giggles!

It has been a challenge catching Emi's smiles and definately no giggles on film. As soon as the camera is on she just stares at it as to say "no cameras please, this is a private showing only." So I have to be sneaky and use my phone and descretely film when possible. I felt very lucky to catch a few giggles and smiles the other day!

Jumping Bean

Emi has started really understanding the jumper now. At first she just sat in it and enjoyed being upright. Now she jumps and is learning how her legs work! (sorry the video is sideways)

Rolling Over

Emi (as you know from previous posts) has been rolling over from tummy to back since early December. She is super private about this and any time we turn on the camera she stops moving! In the last 2 weeks she has been rolling from back to tummy and I was actually able to catch her in the act...
