Emily's new words
This weekend, Emily very clearly wanted to be held when she said, "up," and lifted her arms.
She also asked, "push" when she was in a swing (we went to playgrounds both days this weekend), and when she climbed into the rocking chair in her bedroom.
Another chatty Cepler!

Emily is 18-months old!
Emily is 18-months old! She is smiling and giggling and giving great hugs and high-fives. At her well-visit to the pediatrician on May 2, we learned that Emily weighs 25 pounds, 6 ounces (85th percentile), is 32 inches long (55th percentile), and has a head circumference of 18.5 inches (69th percentile). This means that Emily is growing at a healthy rate, and also jumped up in her growth curve (she is at higher percentiles all around). Wonderful! Stay healthy and happy, Emily!

Mommy in training
I tucked Belle in her bed nicely and didn't hear from her again. When I poked in her room to kiss her goodnight before I went to bed, I found that she'd tucked in her "friends" (Princess Belle, a stuffed giraffe, and a baby) and put herself to sleep in a different part of the bed with an extra pillow and blanket. She is a wonderful Mommy to her friends.

Counting
Belle said, "I can count backwards! 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 1! I've been practicing all week!"
"Great!" I said. "Can you count backwards starting with 10?"
Belle paused, thought about it for a second, and said, "10 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 1."
