Azuree & Emri

 Emri turned 6 months on October 8th this year!! (Kiley also had his accident that afternoon, but that's a different story for a different post.) So on the morning of the 8th I decided to take Emri's 6 month pictures. I also took some of Azuree just for fun. Here they are! My sweet little girls :)

 Here's Azuree! I feel like she looks so grown up in these pictures. It makes me kinda' sad...

Azuree Update:

• Azuree is the sweetest girl ever! She is Mommy and Daddy's big helper and she loves her little sister. She will bring us diapers, help Emri drink her bottle, bring her toys, and try her hardest to make her little sister happy when she's sad.
• Azuree's hair is getting longer and longer. Mommy really enjoys fixing it and playing with it.
• Azuree has never been a picky eater! She will eat almost anything Mom puts in front of her. But Azuree especially loves fruit, fruit and more fruit. I haven't found a fruit that she won't eat. She also loves her veggie's (most of them anyways). I think some of her favorite meals are spaghetti, tuna fish sandwiches, hot dogs, green beans, oatmeal & peaches.
• I think Azuree's favorite thing to do is to be with others! She has never been shy and seems to be quite the little social butterfly! It doesn't matter who you are, if you give her attention she will love you :) But she especially loves being with other little kids and her cousins.
• Azuree does and probably always will love nursery. It's my only leverage I have to get her to sit still in sacrament meeting. "If you don't be reverent you won't be able to go to nursery!" That is quite a sad thought for her. She loves to go and play with her friends, have snacks and learn about Jesus.
• Azuree is speaking in full sentences now! She has been for a while, but it seems like everyday her vocabulary is expanding and she gets easier and easier to understand. And she NEVER STOPS TALKING! It's pretty fun actually :)
• Speaking of never stopping...Azuree just NEVER STOPS! She wakes up so happy and full of energy and that never seems to goes away. (Other than the happy part...she definitely has her grouchy times :)
• Azuree is the biggest copy-cat I have ever seen! It's great because she learns so much and is such a smart kid. But it kinda makes Mom & Dad nervous sometimes because we really have to watch what we say and do around her. (Not like we do anything really bad but...ya know what I'm saying :) She just seems to absorb anything and everything around her.

 And here's my little Emri!

Emri Update:

• Emri, Emri, Emri! What a little doll! I really think that she is the best baby ever. I know that when Heavenly Father sent her to us He had me in mind. She makes Mommy's life so easy! Well...as easy as it can get with a toddler and a baby :)
• Emri has always been a great sleeper.  I have never had a problem with getting her to sleep through the night. And she definitely loves her sleep! She still takes 3 (sometimes 4) naps a day. And then she sleeps through the night! Some days I wish I could sleep that much...
• She has been eating baby food for a while now and recently started eating things like soft crackers and those little baby puffs. She loves to eat! Gotta do something to keep up on all those adorable rolls :) 
• Speaking of rolls, Emri is rolling ALL OVER THE PLACE! Even though she's not quite crawling yet she has no problem getting around. She's at that point where she seems to get frustrated when she can't get around much so I know it won't be long until she's crawling!
• Emri is still pretty bald but has some blonde hair growing in and her eyes are still kind of that baby grey-blue color. I think she will have blue eyes when she gets older because it seemed like by this age Azuree's eyes had already begun to change a little bit to hazel . But Emri's eye's seem like they're just becoming more grey-blue.  
• Emri is a thumb sucker!! She's been a thumb sucker ever since she was really little and it hasn't stopped. From what I've heard there are quite a few thumb suckers in her family (including her mom) so I guess it was bound to happen.
• Talk about a smiley girl! Emri is always smiling! It sure makes Mommy and Daddy's day happy :)
• She is a Daddy's girl! At least he's the one who *always gets a smile from her and he's the best at getting her to laugh. She definitely loves her Daddy time :)
