So we had Emma's birthday party on Saturday, July 11th to celebrate her big day!
I did something totally new this year and made cupcakes instead of a cake and decorated them in the shape of a one. Not my best work but it worked well enough!
The birthday girl with her cupcake. She was fine with it but not overly zealous.
Opening presents.
LOVE this shot of my little diva!
And we had Emma's yearly doc appointment yesterday. Here are her stats:
29 1/4 inches tall--47th percentile
24 pounds 11 oz--96th percentile
Head-19 inches--97th percentile
None of her stats surprise me. :)
She had three shots and a finger poke to check her iron and lead levels and she did awesome!
At one year old, Emma can stand but does not walk yet (thank goodness!). She is so incredibly smart and sweet and her funny little personality is coming out. She loves to put something over her head and wait for me to ask, "Where's Emmie?" And then she'll pull it off and wait for the "Peekaboo!" Emma is so fun to be around. She doesn't have much stranger anxiety but also doesn't usually give out her smiles for free. She says words but not too often, probably because she doesn't get the chance too often!
Emma likes to point to Mack and say, "Ma," She enjoys looking at animals and birds.
And Emma is absolutely, by far the best hugger around. She cuddles up really close, wraps her chubby little baby arms around your neck, and then will proceed to pat your back while giving you a good, long squeeze! She is one of the cuddliest babies I've ever seen!
Emma, I love you so, so, SO much! Impossible to put it into words!
