Emelia the Wagoneer

Last night, Emelia "helped" Mark build her new wagon. By help I mean, try to eat all the tools, rip the instructions, shake wagon vigorously and overall get in the way. She had fun doing it, so thats all that matters really. Afterward, I took her for a quick roll around the house which she loved. She is getting to be such a little kid, just the way she moves and looks at us now, she's no longer a little baby :( Sometimes she bats our hands away when we try to help her or hand her something as if she's saying " I can do it on my own, jeez" and she's turning into a little Diva too at dinner time. Emmy prefers to feed herself now, the problem is she doesn't actually get the right amount of food in her mouth as much as on top of her head, her clothes and the floor haha. She is becoming independent for an older infant haha. When its dressing time, she usually yanks all the drawers open and throws whatever she doesn't want to wear on the floor and tries to eat the one thing that she is wearing. I have been trying to show her how to calmly open and close the drawers since she has pinched her fingers more then once with her aggressive opening and closing style. She's learning new things everyday, she's a crazy cute little sponge. Can't wait until she starts talking, she's going to be a ripper.
