First Pair of "Big Girl" Jammies

Emma is finally able to fit into some of her 6-9 month clothing which means she now has far more options available to her as far as her wardrobe is concerned! Typically (since we have been in TX) she sleeps in only a diaper because I do not want her to become overheated. However, with the nights beginning to get a little chilly she is now in need of something to keep her warm and cozy at night. Though she has about 1,000 pairs of pajamas only 1-2 pairs actually fit her. Upon realizing this I decided it was time to purchase some more. Up until now she has been sleeping in the zip up, full body pajamas because they are much easier than having to deal with the ones that button up and are difficult to get on. Since she is now able to fit into size 6 month clothing, I was finally able to buy her a pair of "Big girl" pajamas! Not only is she wearing big girl pajamas but she is also rocking a very cute pair of panda bear slippers. Honestly... It does not get much cuter than this! Tonight I decided to get her ready for bed about thirty minutes early to ensure that I had some extra time to snuggle up to my beautiful, cuddly, pajama'ed out little girl! It does not get much better than that! I love you Emma! Sleep well my pretty princess!

What Emma is Doing

All of her colors.

All of her letters.

All basic shapes and even a handful of more advanced one.

Can name all of her body parts.

Knows the days of the week and can even tell you which activities she has on which days.

She has been doing chores and has been responsible for cleaning her playroom and bedroom for about a year. In recent months she has gotten to a point where she will often begin her cleaning for the day without me having to ask or monitor her while she does it.

Can re-tell many of the stories from the Bible and can tell you all about Jesus.

Knows how to spell her name.

Learning how to write her letters- we haven't really started working on writing number yet.

Learning some basic addition.

Learning about money and the value of different coins. This ties in well with teaching her addition because she is learning simple things like 5 pennies= 1 nickle.

Still a very healthy little eater and typically has no aversion to eating her veggies. She does prefer eating them raw and loves going to my favorite salad spot for lunch after morning gymnastics.

Loves listening to music and enjoys playing piano and guitar with Daddy. We have the keys on our piano labeled so for about the past year she has been learning the notes.

Loves her "Best friend pup" and sleeps with him every night.

Very good at drawing and has taught herself to draw so many things that I did not think a three year old could even draw.

Going to gymnastics three days a week- she can do front rolls, tuck jumps, straddle jumps, and pikes all by herself and is even walking backwards on the beam, doing small jumps on the beam, and doing simple flips on the bars. She is currently working on cartwheels and simple back walkovers using the mat that is shaped like a block.

Fully potty trained- praise the Lord for that one!

Knows all about different types of food and can tell you which foods are healthy and which are unhealthy.
