Decorating the Christmas tree. Emmitt was kind of interested in the ornaments, although not as much as I thought he would be. He did attempt to put on a few decorations. I guess he just thinks we got a new house plant? Oh'well better than him being overly interested in the tree and the destruction of it. He does love to walk by yard Christmas decorations especially blow up Santas, dogs, and Snowmen.
Emmitt and his good friend "the remote". If you say "No Show" Emmitt takes his anger out on the poor remote by throwing it across the room...charming behavior!
The Thanksgiving dinner table...total chaos! Not one child ate at the same time, there were dinosaurs in the water glasses, poured water on the plates, and several different bribes offered throughout dinner time. Oh' well...Emmitt really enjoyed the Vanilla Ice Cream Aunt Sara made. He had two bowls and can very clearly ask for it!
Emmitt can be super sweet when he wants too and is actually a really great "sharer". Here he randomly picked up the dinosaur that Killian dropped and gave it to him.
Need a gift idea for Emmitt???? anything Dinosaur! He has even taken to sleeping with the dinosaur Library book I got....he doesn't know it is actually written in Spanish. Ha!
Dinosaurs! The biggest thing in Emmitt and Killian's life. All three boys were playing dinosaurs together, it was very cute.
Emmitt took a bite of everything and then put them back on the tray....delicious for the rest of us.
"Hello! Thanksgiving Relish tray", oh and never mind the pants...Emmitt would rather go without these days!
"Ouch", one of Emmitt's favorite words. He says "ouch" ALL THE TIME. One of the many ways that Emmitt is testing the attention he can get from actions. It is very cute!
Playing at the river, our favorite past time. Emmitt can spend hours throwing rocks, sticks, and feeding ducks. Luckily the weather in Denver has allowed for several beautiful days out of the house. Good for us all.
Shark soup! If you can't tell there is a plastic Shark squirt gun in the pot. Emmitt is very interested in what goes on in the kitchen these days.
Yes, the tongue pictures are back! Now that Emmitt has a new found interest in the Camera and understands "make a face"...we have lots of fun!
Emmitt-22 1/2 months
Oh' Emmitt you are so funny!
Story 1) I am in the kitchen doing dishes, Emmitt is in the living room doing what??? I walk in and immediately see Emmitt at the dining room table with my wallet. I say "What are you doing monkey?" Emmitt looks up, shuts the wallet, hands it to me and says "here Momma". I have never seen the kid look so guilty, know what he was doing- that he shouldn't do, and never ever has he stopped and gave me my personal item. We have entered into new territory with this guy. My Monkey is definitely not a baby anymore, although he will always be my baby.
Story 2) Bath time. It has grown lately to be about an hour long. It consists of me taking a bath with him (if I don't he says repeatedly "Momma, Momma and points to the tub. He then grabs the sleeve of my arm trying to pull me in, so usually I give in as it is just the two of us in the evenings these days). What can I say a bubble bath with my monkey isn't such a bad thing! Anyways, he also has been very preoccupied with hair. It is usually my hair and usually sticks to his fingers. Sometimes it is Percy hair at which he says "yuck". On this particular evening Emmitt found 1 hair and then spent 20 minuets trying to get the 1 hair to stick to the head of his monster. After much frustration, and laughing by me, I helped the guy out and stuck it to the monster's head. Emmitt yelled in joy "yay, yay, yay". He is so cute.
Story 3) "Dad Bottle!" Emmitt has turned his poor father into the servant of the house. Whether we are driving, in the bath, in bed, on the couch, downstairs, in the stroller, or reading books when Emmitt needs a beverage, usually a bottle he screams "Dad, Bottle!" Kevin of course rolls his eyes, but always gets his guy a bottle. Emmitt can say "I love you" so that always makes up for it. He also says "Tank you".
