Emmett turned 6 months old on November 1st. This Fall has been so busy and I can't believe the holidays are upon us. Our little guy is growing up so fast! We are really looking forward to traveling with him to visit all the family over the holidays. We will be traveling back to Illinois for Thanksgiving to spend time with both the Prindiville and Bushmeyer relatives. My immediate family will be spending time together skiing in Keystone before Christmas and then we will drive to Tulsa to spend Christmas with Mike's whole family. It's going to be crazy and fun!!!! I decided to get Emmett's pics done before we started all the traveling. He has been a busy body and learning all sorts of new things. We have been working on sleep training with the help of my sister in law Ashley. It has been a process but I think we are getting there! Emmett and I have lots of time together while Mike is on the road. It is really hard work doing it all alone for a week but I just love being with my little guy. Somedays are beyond exhausting but one big smile from Emmett makes everything better:)
-Emmett has started sitting up all on his own this month. He loves playing on his blankets with all of his toys.
-He loves being tickled and bounced on my knee. He just starts cracking up laughing, I try to send as many videos to Mike as possible so he can watch him laughing. It is so funny!
-Emmett is eating 3 times a day. Sometimes I add in Rice Cereal and other times he just eats the food. He has tried green beans, apples, pears, sweet potatoes, squash, and bananas.
-We Skype and FaceTime so much with Mike and my parents, I'm afraid Emmett is going to think these people just exist on computers and phones! Ha! He loves showing off for my parents and giving huge smiles to Mike.
-We got a jumperoo for Emmett and he loves jumping in it. I keep thinking he is going to jump right out of it.
-This is an especially fun age that I am enjoying with Emmett. It's great to see him learning and interacting. I feel that I am actually starting to enjoy every moment with Emmett versus just rushing from feedings to sleep to activities etc. I can't wait to see what the next 6 months bring
