Leaps and Bounds

I can't believe it my baby is already army crawling, pushing up on all fours while catapulting himself forward, and oh wait, his FIRST TOOTH has broken!!!!!!!!!! I feel like he just arrived a few weeks ago and now I'm feeding him rice cereal. It's bittersweet to watch your babes grow up so quickly, or so it seems. Emma is now talking in sentences, which makes me smile every time I hear her voice. "Mommy, do this please" "Mommy, read to me" "Mommy, dance with me" these phrases and more are music to my ears. We're starting to work on potty training but are definitely easing into the process. On several occasions this week I've found her in the bathroom naked, but in the bath tub coloring with her water crayons. At least she's naked in the right place. We got her the cutest little panties and now she asks to put them on and hold them. Yesterday she was going through them putting them in a pile while talking to herself and stops, looks at me and says, "Emma's panties...poo poo ah (and) pee pee on potty." I smile just typing it...she's so stinking cute.
