Emmitt
Eating out with
Emmitt has become quite a challenge. He must be constantly occupied and wants to touch and eat everything (except real food). Here he is at Emmit Watson's oyster bar. A crazy looking Employee took special interest in
Emmitt and provided him with an endless supply of spoons to throw and bang on the table.
Emmitt loves the baby Bjorn. I actually purchased a really nice carrier but he only wants to face front in the bjorn. When you put him in the Bjorn he squeals in delight, kicks his legs, and laughs. He is going to be sad when he no longer fits!
YAY! Aunt Sara!
What a wonderful week!
Emmitt is now about 6 1/2 months. He is finally (after
Ferberizing him) sleeping up to 8 hours a night in a row- almost 12 hours total. The baby is SO smart that it only took him about 4 nights to figure it out. We both came out fine(after a bit of emotional stress)__ and now we have been relishing in sleeping for more than 2 hours in a row. It is so wonderful we can't believe it and wake up several times a night to check and make sure it is for real! Speaking of genius babies,
Emmitt is one! He picks up new skills daily. He astonishes us. He is already trying to crawl, loves to stand, can reach and grasp most anything, interacts with us constantly, has incredible eye contact, and is full of chatter. He also has broken in 2 new teeth and we think maybe a few more are on the way. One thing
Emmitt doesn't like is food. I went to Whole foods and purchased every kind of baby food I could find for infants and he is like "no thank you". Even though it is slightly frustrating, it is really hilarious to see the expression on his face when he eats the most hated of foods, banana, avocado, plums, really most all fruit. Oh' well we just take it a day at a time and assume one day he will enjoy his food, otherwise we will have to sell him since we won't be having any picky eaters in this foodie family! Ha! The last wonderful event of this past week was a visit by Grandma Connie and aunt Sara. We had a wonderful time, eating good food, playing with
Emmitt, taking walks, and just being together. I really needed some
Strayer girl time and think
Emmitt did too. He LOVES his auntie and Grammy. Next up Jackson family girls!
Yay!
