22 Months

Who? What? When? Where? Why? How?
I cannot believe this cute & sweet munchkin will be TWO in two months.
And yes, they grow oh so fast as every single person with a child will tell you... in case you couldnt see how fast it is flashing before your own eyes!
 
This month, she has been really into her Daddy :) especially at night, right before bed. If he is sitting on this couch, she will climb right up and get comfy.
 
 
She also made the blanket rack into her own personal jungle gym/fort... she also wants to sit between the bars and get "stuck" as she repeats as she tries and forces her way and to her sadness, she didnt fit and was mad because I just sat and recorded her. hehe

Emma has also now discovered the toilet paper! Each bathroom only gets ONE roll at a time and it is not allowed on the roller haha I knew it was too quiet for far too long.

 
Emma loves her car and will get it and out and drive it around the house (she doesnt get far on the carpet LOL) and we like to take it to check the mail and she insists on walking and pushing it herself... BEEP BEEP


She has become a food theif! She stole the Buger King bag and ran away with it. Although and soon as she saw what was in it she gave it right back and had no interest. AND since she is the pickiest eater ever, I made a banana, blueberry and broccoli shake for her and she LOVED it, drank more than half :) pretty excited about that!!


Her new favorite puppy, she pets him, gives him kisses and drags him around.
 

We have a massive grass area right outside the house and Emma went crazy. She was so utterly happy it made my heart so happy :)



 
Happy 22 months, Peaches!!!!

A weekend for the books..

This was definitely not a weekend I want on repeat. It all started smooth of course. We planned that my Mom would have Emma Saturday and James was going golfing with some friends. Perfect... I get the whole house to myself to unpack and hang and put things away without a distraction. I was so prodictive. My Mom returned Emma in the afternoon on Saturday and about an hour later it all went downhill..
 
Thursday night snuggles with Daddy :)
 
 
So Saturday afternoon, I get a text saying that his friends dog bit him in the face, his cheek is like a blow-hole.. what shoould he do? So I gather what I can for Emma and picked a hospital half way to each other. His friend got him their and offered to watch Emma while I was with James. Perfect... entertain her and hopefully she doesnt get too mad its dinner time and all she has is goldfish and m&m's. I was lucky we got that and juice lol. So James gets 6 stitches in his cheek. If it was anything other than a dog bite, he would have needed 5 more..but they need the wound open and aired out for infection.
He is going to be just fine and he wont lose his cheek. Stitches come out Friday and we are hoping for a real meal!

 
On Sunday while we let James sleep off his pain, I attempted flourless pancakes! Emma is the pickiest of picky eaters. We eat lots of mac and cheese and waffles. She look at the food and play with it and then just throw it around. I have tried playing with smoothies.. she knows whats up. So we made these banana and egg pancakes and then called them waffles.. she LOVED them. Kept asking for more :). Yay! Eating eggs!! I may have also added chocolate chips to them to make her want them more lol


 
I made little appetizers for our 3-man party we had. Chips and guac, quiche, burger bits and mini tacos for the main dish.


 
Oreo shakes for the rest of the game.
Emma sucked hers down so fast... I had to hide mine so i didnt have to share haha

 
Emma was so sweet to her Daddy and his ouchies. Gave him so much love yesterday.


 
So our weekend was eventful to say the least. Hopefully this is just a bump in the wonderful month of February!
