However, you are not always as innocent as you look...BUT you are pretty close! :)
You tend to be my little migrater. You seem to go off and do your own thing vs. hanging with the crowd.
There are times you suprise me by playing with others, but as a rule you are very content on your own. Unless you are in a completely unfamilair place then you latch on to mommy for all she's worth. :)
You are now making more sounds & trying to form more words. You recently learned the word "no" lol
You have not told mommy or daddy no yet ( you just ignore us instead-ha) but you do tell your Sissy no!
You can blow kisses & give real kisses! ( real as in you dont give open mouth slobbery kisses anymore) :)
You now like to walk everywhere we go instead of being held. Infact, you can get rather nasty if we don't let you walk. :)
You have 8 teeth now and Mommy brushes them for you w/ a finger brush.( a "tooth brush" that fits over my finger like a glove) Thats what we were given at our baby showers but I keep meaning to buy you girls big girl tooth brushes so you can do it on your own but I keep forgetting!
You are teething pretty bad right now. You have had many restless nights lately. Usually sometime between 2-5am about twice a week you end up in Mommy's bed. I secretly look forward to these nights because I love cuddling with you and having that one on one time with you, but after an hour or so Mommy is so ready for you to go back to sleep and you don't always cooperate. :) So,chances are ,if you are having a restless night then I am too. :-/
But we will live through it, I know you can't help your gummies are bothering you & soon enough you will be over this phase and you will have a mouth full of choppers!
You are still a good eater but you are starting to get a little more picky about what you will & will not eat. I FINALLY got you to eat peaches! For the longest time you would not even taste them just because you did not like the slimey texture but thank goodness you finally came around! So now we can add Peaches to your list of fruits!
You are completely off of formula! You had your very last cup of formula about a week ago. You are doing just fine on your whole milk & occassional juice.
Here is a picture of you & Emma on the morning of your last cup of formula :)

You absolutely love playing outside! I try to make sure you get to go out every day. You enjoy it so much.
You love the toilet paper roll. Something about spinning it around and around while all that toilet paper unravels , seems to humor you.
Your braces came in for your feet, and you have adjusted very well to them. And Mommy is sure to dress you in shoes that no one even knows they are there.
Happy 19 Months my Giggly Baby Girl! You are my whole world and you make Mommy & Daddy so very proud of you! I love you lotsa very much! :-)
My Sweet Emma Grace,
You are turning into a big girl before my very eyes. You are following directions so well now, so the times that you don't obey I know it's not because you don't understand what I am saying. You have prooven that you get every word! :)
I absolutely love the little helper you are. Anytime your sister or Sophie is crying you always try to help them not be sad by taking them their milk or by patting them while saying "awww"
You love playing outside!
One thing you and Molly both do that cracks me up is you will run & hide (as if I cant see you) when you have something in your hands that you are not suppose to have. Your favorite place to hide is behind the couch.
One night at bedtime, I was putting Molly to bed, and you knew you were next so what do you go & do? You take off running & hide in the laundry room closet! haha
I was only able to get a cell phone shot of this, but it was pretty funny!
You are a chatter box! And you have the most precious voice! You have so much to say, and you try so hard to say real words now! But I sure am going to miss all the "wuzzy wuzzy woo" jibber jabber conversations we have together!
You mimick mommy and make animal sounds, and there is pretty much nothing that you wont climb on!
You are becoming more social with others, praise God because I thought for sure that "Mommy Only" phase would never end! You still dont let just anyone hold you, but you atleast smile at others instead of scream. lol
You are blowing kisses and it is SOOO cute watching you do this!
(blowing kisses while making the "mmmwah!" sound)
You are a sassy girl! You are sure to get your point across & its not often that even a big kid can intimidate you. You fend for yourself quite well!
You only have 6 teeth and you are also an extremely picky eater!
You too are in a size 4 diapers & while you clothes are a little big on you they fit you much better than they do your sister :)
I love my baby Emma so much & you make me so proud! Happy 19 months to my special girl!
