Little observations

Emma seems close to figuring out how to crawl.  If I bring her legs up under her belly while she is doing a pushup she seems to know to push with her toes and move forward to get something I put in front of her.  
She is turning around completely in the jungle jumparoo on her own. 
Mommy unofficially weighed Emma at the office and she was at 13 pounds. 
Emma has let daddy go out and work from time to time by accompanying him in her stroller and watching and talking to the chickens.  
We can watch her dexterity growing.  She can palm a wooden block with one hand but still uses two.  She is gripping the little balls she has better so her hand better forms around the round shape.  
Right now, she is talking and bouncing herself in the jumparoo while I type.  She picks up her legs so she sinks down and then jumps off the ground making the jumparoo go up in the air.  She is talking and growling and screeching.  We have to do a second helping of her bottle so we'll stop here.
Love,
Daddy, Emma, and Mommy
