Wow, its been hard keeping up with these two...there has been so much going on this month! Where to start? Emry has become quite the big sister. She is always wanting to hold, pickup and carry Whitney. She is always looking out for her by bringing Whitney her blanket, toys and clothes. Emry has certainly accepted Whitney with loving and open arms!
We were a little nervous she'd get jealous of all the attention given to the baby, but she loves to jump right in and help out. Emry has really taken on the role of teacher, as she loves to play on the floor with Whitney and show her different things. Emry's vocabulary has exploded recently, as she has added several phrases and new words. She loves to point things out to Whitney and talk to her in giberish.
Since the weather has been so nice, we've spent a lot of time outside. Playing outside is by far Emry's favorite thing to do right now. Whether we're going on walks, runs in the jogging stroller with dad, bike rides, wagon rides, exploring in the yard, swinging or going to the park, Emry can't get enough!
Playing outside has caused some added danger, as Emry suffered her first skinned knee this month. She cut it pretty good and some blood & tears were shed. But she liked showing off her band-aid and saying boo-boo.
As far as Whitney this month, she did have her first bottle feeding, but other than that she has been doing the normal 1 month old routine: eating, pooping, crying and sleeping. She has pretty blue eyes and still has a full head of brown hair. It has been another great month watching our little ones grown and develop! Here are some pics from this month to keep track of all of Marches adventures...
