Smart girl

Things Emmie knows the location of:
* Her nose
* Her mouth
* Her head
* Her ear
* The milk
* Outside
* Mommy's nose
* Mommy's cell phone
* Jack's favorite toy garage
* Any hairbow within 5 feet of her head
* Grandma and Grandpa's glasses
* Daddy's laptops
* The TV remotes
* Mommy and Daddy's blender, ice and margarita mix

Things Emmie can say:
* Mama
* Dada
* Dah (Jack)
* Dog
* Duck
* Quack
* Yeah
* Stop hitting me Jack, you are mean and I am going to spend the next 15 years getting back at you for this.

Things Emmie can sign:
* More
* All done
* Itsy Bitsy Spider
* Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes
* Wheels on the Bus
* Up
* Bye
* Take me on another vacation or else.

Not only is our big girl talking and walking, but she is also eating us out of house and home. I have started calling her the human vacuum because she will eat anything and everything you put in front of her. She two-fists everything from scrambled eggs to Cheerios to sweet potato chunks. Tonight she ate more than Jack did at dinner.

I am thrilled my little Failure To Thrive baby is packing on the pounds -- a few ounces shy of 22 pounds at last check -- and is into trying new things. I am sure in a few months she'll be turning her nose up at everything but bread and applesauce, but we're rolling with it for now.
