Well, let me start with Emmett's stats:
Weight: 22 lbs 10.5 oz (99%)
Height: 27" (72%)
Head Circumference: 45 cm (83%)
And now for a list of accomplishments/habits:
- We found a food he doesn't like! I tried giving him a few bites of mashed potatoes on Thanksgiving, and after the first bite he kept trying to push the potatoes out of his mouth. Oh well. He got to eat sweet potatoes for Thanksgiving instead, which is healthier anyway. =)
- He is really starting to get better control of his hands. He reaches for stuff a lot more and is starting to grab things and study them. It's so cute seeing him start to really interact with and learn from his surroundings.
- He rolled over for the first time! It was definitely an accident, but he did it! Unfortunately, we have yet to get him to repeat the act. No matter how much tummy time we give him, he doesn't roll over. Oh well, eventually he'll get there.
- He got his first teeth! His two bottom ones came within a day of each other. He looks super cute with them. But boy are they sharp! Pretty soon he's not going to be able to chew on our hands!
- He has been so giggly lately! Especially when he's starting to get tired (he gets a little slap happy). It's been so much fun hearing him laugh.
- He still doesn't really like his Bumbo. Usually within 2 minutes he's arching his back trying to get himself out. (Of course, it might be because he's seriously wedged in the Bumbo...with his chunky little thighs and bum I'm not sure how much longer we'll be able to get him in there and still be able to get him back out)
- He loves playing with things that make noise. I gave him a scrap of wrapping paper the other day and he just had a ball! He also likes rattles, etc. He just gets so excited when he plays with something that makes noise.
- This past weekend he got to meet his new cousin...and let's just say he got a funny look on his face when Daddy was holding her instead of him, haha!
- He always gets excited to see Daddy when he comes home from work (as long as he's awake....if not, he gets excited when he wakes up)
