Emma Update...




So we have seen our growth and development specialist for our one year check up. In the office is a physical therapist, occupational therapist, speech therapist and a dietitian along with the doctor. THEY ALL have agreed that Emma is at a 11 month old level... almost caught up and very quickly!!! The doctor was very impressed and said he would like to see her one more time before discharging her from his care which is awesome. She is saying momma now but it is usually in a whiny voice and dada is always a happy voice... We finally have a tooth!!! Just one and on the bottom but it's here so we are excited! At the last check which was yesterday she is weighing right at about 18lbs!!! We are working on her confidence in walking because she has the mechanics down she just doesn't trust herself yet... Moms goal is by Christmas but she always has her own agenda...

Pumpkins!!!











Just some pumpkin patch pics from around halloween!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY EMMA!!!
















WOW!!! What a year it has been. Such a roller coaster ride in the beginning and now it's a new adventure with Emma everyday! She is getting so active, crawling EVERYWHERE, talking up a storm- mostly baby babble but she does say dada... working on momma... She is a bundle of fun and energy. At our last check she weighs 17lb 6 oz. No teeth yet but any day the bottom ones are gonna push their way through. She is such a social little butterfly, anyone we see when out and about she feels the need to call out to, mostly because she knows she will get attention and a smile that way. These last few weeks have been so emotional for me, just remembering all we went through a year ago, knowing we are soooo blessed by GOD for this miracle baby girl with no residual problems. She is just awsome.
