Emma will be 15 months

Emma will be 15 months next week. I haven’t posted too much about her recently. Let me think of things about her now.

She still likes warm milk.
She doesn’t take a bottle.
She still takes a pacifier.
She rubs the top of her head when she’s sleepy and especially if she has her paci in her mouth.
She loves her animal books.
She likes to “give her baby a bottle”.
She likes to move things from one place to another. For example, she really liked to move the Wood Glue at Target to the cabinet shelf.
She can make a sound like a car, sometimes a cat, lion or cow.
She loves the Wiggles.
She likes to dance and does so by swaying back and forth and clapping her hands as fast as she goes. Recently she has been holding one hand still and patting it with the other.
She knows where to go if I say, go get a bath, go eat, go get your diaper change, we need to take Mattie out and do you want to go.
She doesn’t like taking naps in her crib and usually lays on the couch or our bed.
Recently she has been going down at night wide awake alone in her crib. (Lovin’ that)
She has no favorite stuffed animal or blanket.
She loves to color–with a pen or pencil, but not really crayons.
She doesn’t like to sit in high chairs too much, usually at some point meal she tries to stand up. At restaurants we’ve pretty much given up and let her stand beside one of us in a booth.
She goes to bed around 8 and wakes up about 7:30 (5:30 yesterday–yuck! and 8:30 this morning–yay!)
She loves to hold clothes on a hanger and loves even more to actually hang it up.
She loves playing with my hair products and especially likes taking the caps off. I have restricted her from the ones she can fit in her mouth.
She hates her diaper changed.
She loves cheese, vegetables (I think the order is carrots, peas, green beans, corn) and fruit (espcially bananas).
She likes all kinds of meat, but seems partial to fish and chicken.
She doesn’t like shoes or socks on.
She really likes no clothes on.
She hates her hair washed in the bath.
She loves to play in Mattie’s water.
She likes to go down the steps. She REALLY likes escalators.
She doesn’t like it in a stroller shopping. In fact, I can’t remember the last time we used it, or even farther in memory is when she stayed in it during an entire shopping trip.
She likes getting the pages as they come out of the printer.
She likes all electronics.
She hates her hair being messed with if you’re actually trying to fix it.
She doesn’t mind wearing hats.
She is starting to understand most of what I say although sometimes she stares at me when I’m repeating things to her like I’m stupid. I’m still wondering if she really knows what I’m saying or not.
She “plays chase” with Mattie. In reality, Emma is running and thinks Mattie is chasing her when really is very slowly walking around hoping that Emma will drop some food.

Ok, is that like 100 things about Emma?? Here is a recent picture. You can’t see her straight on, but I love her bending down to find a book.
