life's more fun together
For this Halloween rather than something terrifying for evil, Emery was a Ballerina. Not only that, this Halloween, we took her trick or treating for the first time. She caught on quickly, saying “trick or treat”, putting out her bucket for candy, knocking on doors and going door to door. She loved it. But most of all she ate candy all along the way!
We toon Emery to the Atlanta Zoo for the second time. She got scared o the goats at the petting zoo. Loved seeing monkeys, lions, elephants and tigers.
She is speaking so much now, it’s just wonderful to see her be amazed by all the animals.
Ye Atlanta Dogwood festival came again this year to Piedmont Park. We took Emery to the park and she had a great time. She got to go on a Merry Go Around for the first time ever. She was scared and wanted to make sure we were holding onto her. We also got her hair done at the fair. The look was called Fair Hair and Emery looked great. She got a lot of compliments. Ashley and I also got to enjoy the carnival ourselves go on some rides. We had a great time.
It’s Chinese New Year and we dressed Em B up in her last years chines Outfit. The pants were too big but the shirt fit perfectly. We found some red pants anyways and she was quite festive.
We didn’t do much else this year to celebrate the year of the dragon but Em b always livens up the holiday spirit. Here’s some pics of the little B at school when we dropped her off. She is never that happy so we dot expect big smiles in the morning…otherwise we might be worried! 🙂

I counted 41 words! There’s probably more I am forgetting now, but Emery is picking up new words all the time. It’s wonderful to here her. She also calls out to our parents and siblings but I don’t think she can register them with the words so I don’t count them for now in her vocab. From just a pronunciation perspective Emery can say almost all
of the alphabet. She has some trouble with R, G,J,V and X but amazing to here her go through all of them. Up next numbers!
