It's been a while since I've done a little update on miss Emma Claire and her latest "tricks". She learns more and more each day, it is so neat to watch her explore the world and take it all in. I've started keeping a list on my phone for all of the cute or new things she does. And since I'm not doing monthly updates anymore I feel like I need to keep documenting her little milestones as she hits them. So here's a little EC update, list style.
- Right now she can sign eat, drink, more, milk, baby, dog, bird, time, banana, and dad. Signing Dad is her favorite right now.
- She can identify her hair {head}, eyes, nose, mouth {teeth and tongue}, belly button, toes, and ears.
- She nods her head yes {all of the time}
- She says "Hi!" constantly. I love it.
- When she wants a drink she will sign eat but smack her lips.
- She likes to put things in her mouth and walk around holding them.
- She loves walking backwards.
- When we ask for a kiss she leans her face in so we can kiss her.
- Before bed she usually falls asleep nursing but on occasion she stays awake. If she is awake then right before I lay her down she sweetly will lean her forehead into mine and hold my head between her hands. It is the sweetest thing I have ever witnessed. It melts my heart every time she does it.
- When we are done with bath time if I ask her, "Emma Claire are you ready to get out?" She will respond by pulling the drain stopper and trying to stand up! ha!
- She can "wink". It's hilarious.
- She has started to love stuffed animals but I think she might be a blankie girl. She used to fuss EVERY time we got in the car. Then about a few weeks ago I started covering her up with two blankets in the car and she really hasn't fussed all that much! It's not surprising, I was a blankie girl and might still have my baby blanket hanging around somewhere.... ;-)
- By far my FAVORITE new development is that the first thing Emma Claire does when I get her up in the morning/from a nap is ASK FOR A BOW. Y'all have no idea how happy this makes me. Brainwashing was successful. I kid, I kid. But in all honesty it is great to see her LOVE her bows! Makes my momma heart happy! Also, If you ask her "Where does your bow go?" She will put it on her head.
Each day is such a fun adventure with our little lady. She keeps us on our toes and makes us laugh constantly.

Aww, these are all so precious. I hope Audrey ask for bows one day! :) I am not sure I do as good of a job with them as you seem to do.
I was actually looking at Audrey's picture of her in Emma Claire's outfit and calculating their age difference just a few minutes ago, ha. Ya'll are my go to blog when I want to see what Audrey will probably be doing in a couple of months! :)
G talks about bows all the time and tries to put them on anything sitting still. EC is so sweet.
She is so darling!
Things that stuck out to me:
1. Walking backwards- I don't think I've ever seen H walk backwards!
2. "Tries to stand up in the bathtub" - does this mean she doesn't stand up and walk around for the majority of her bath? Just my kid? Probably.
3. Nods her head yes all the time. I'm not sure H has ever nodded yes....but he says "oh no" all the time. Haha!
So funny!
