Emma: 1 year 16 weeks.

* Size 3 diapers. Size 12 & 18 month clothes. Size 4 - 5 shoes.
* Likes to watch tv on top of the ottoman.
* Watches Tangled while I'm making dinner.
* Fell asleep during lunch again; this time, she was holding an oreo.
* Enjoys playing with/eating ice.
* Bought a water table this week; Emma loves it!
* A wounded soldier was driving through Monroe, on the way home. Emma & I decided to go show our support and went to downtown Monroe. He was 1.5 hours late but it was well worth it. There were so many people waiting for him. I loved the fact that I could do this with Emma. An older lady bought Emma a flag because she was so cute. Poor Emma was so hot and wanted to run around but she did great!
* Going to enjoy a quiet weekend.
* Emma scratched her face while running around on a deck. Poor thing handled it well and only cried for a minute. Trauma over, except for the people who watched her and the collective gasp that followed the accident.
* Enjoys going through flashcards with pictures of animals on them; we are working on woof (dog) this week. Says apple pretty good, but doesn't say it often. 

Emma: 1 year 15 weeks

* Size 3 diapers. Size 12 & 18 month clothes. Size 4 - 5 shoes.
* Busy week for Mama as she plants flowers and lays down pinestraw during Emma's naptime. This means that housework is on the back burner.
* Climbing on & off the couch
* Climbing from the "Emma chair" to the ottoman and scooting off the ottoman & repeat. 
* Loves to be outside no matter what. Especially loves playing with her buckets and splashing around. Emma picks up worms and likes playing in the dirt.
* Very particular about where certain items should be: lining buckets up in a row, placing pillows on the floor. 
* Went to Savannah during Memorial weekend. It was great! Emma had a blast at Oatland Island; she loves looking at the animals, especially the farm animals. Greg & I had a much needed date for our anniversary. We definitely need to get out more often; I think the last time we went out was for a football game. Emma was very wary of family but she did enjoy spending time with Mimi and Grandad.
