I know I haven't posted since our two month anniversary, but better late than never!
Emma is doing great! Every week she has more and more words and she is growing like a weed. She is currently experiencing growing pains, she is sleeping a lot and her temporary prosthetic doesn't fit anymore.
Last week she had an appointment to get her permanent prosthetic, but it was way too big around, her swelling is almost completely gone, so they made a new mold of her leg and she has another appointment tomorrow. Let's hope this one fits better. We don't want her to have two prosthetics that don't fit! She is so ready to run plus Emma started physical therapy and it would be great if they could work with her in her permanent prosthetic.
Emma's vocabulary is growing as fast as she is. The body parts that she knows are; hair, head, eyes, nose, teeth, ears, cheek, neck, tummy, belly button, leg, knee, foot, arm and back. She is starting to say three word phrases more regularly, and is great at saying please (peas) and thank you (tea tea).
Emma loves to cook! We make pudding every week, we have baked banana bread muffins, she helps me cook dinner a couple nights a week and today we made strawberry smelling playdough (one of her favorite things to play with).
Emma also loves books. She likes to look at them herself, wants me to read them to her, she has even started retelling the stories that we have read. Every night we read Goodnight Moon, Go Away Big Green Monster, Peek a Who?, Goose on the Loose, Jamberry and Clap Your Hands.
Here is our big girl...
