9 months...

Emma turned 9 months in January and she is as active as ever!!  She definitely has a stubborn streak in her and she is very persistent in trying to get what she wants.  Of course, she's into everything...and just yesterday learned the magic that happens when you spin the roll of toilet paper :)  She's eating more and more of Mommy and Daddy's foods and enjoys most of them.  It is fun watching how much she is learning everyday.

Just last week Emma and I were able to take a trip down to Sandy to see my best friend Jen and her little girl, Maddie.  It was fun watching Emma and Maddie together.  We sat them by one another on the piano bench to let them pound on the keys and Emma reached over and put both of her arms around Maddie.  Then she proceeded to clap her hands so she was hitting Maddie's belly and back.  Maddie wasn't so sure about that, and I don't blame her!  I wish I could have gotten a video of it.  I just have a few pictures we snapped right before we left, and they're the best we could do with two active little girls!
