She has started eating more lately. We recently went with my Dad on a trip to the mountains to get our Christmas tree and had so much fun. After we got our tree we went out to eat at this yummy country restaurant and Emma had her first taste of cornbread and loved it! I was so surprised at how well she was at picking up food. I have to keep reminding myself that she is old enough to eat some table foods, I keep thinking she is younger than she really is, but she was picking up that bread like a pro. So, I started giving her some more things like cheerios and puffs and she does great. I think she really likes eating with us at dinner time, I believe she was feeling left out before.
Today is huge though, I decided that I really needed to try to work with Emma on her naps and just lay her down which usually results in major crying. Today is Chris's day off from work so he was here to help keep me from going in there and it worked she is napping while I type. She cried on and off for about 30 minutes, but finally gave it up, yippee! Hopefully I can keep this up for her afternoon nap! I seem to have been worse with Emma than with Aidan when it comes to things like this, I guess its because this is my last baby and I'm hanging on to all the little things like snuggling and holding and rocking her. I'm sure to spoil her rotten! ha! well, here are some recent pictures of us on our Christmas tree trip and Thanksgiving at my Dad's and Aunt Bonnie's house the next day.
