Emily. Emily. Emily....

Today Emily and I practiced her tumblesaults.  She can do them straight with help. Without help, she bends over and puts her head on the ground and rolls to the side. Then she learned a new game. We played 'what hand is it in.'  The first couple times after she picked the wrong hand, she'd walk all over the room looking for the bracelet I was hiding. She caught on after a few times when I showed her my other hand. She's been very into her blocks lately. Not her big building Lego blocks, but her red, blue and yellow wooden blocks. Actually, it's Walmart brand Jenga. I've been teaching her different ways to stack them. Today we also practiced how to pet Lucy nicely. She's been smacking her lately.   The last few weeks she's been just a talking away... I sure wish I knew what she was saying.
