Like Mommy, like Emily, and other pictures

Emily and I dressed alike one day without meaning to. I was all ready for work and went in to get her in the morning. I fed her and got her changed and picked out the exact same colors for her to wear as I was wearing. I didn't even notice it until Greg mentioned it as we were eating breakfast. We both had tan cordoroy's on and I had a lavendar sweater and Emily had a lavendar shirt. We weren't together most of the day so people didn't notice, but she had a dermatologist appointment at the end of the day and the doctor commented about it. Too funny.

Emily is getting to be so good at standing up. She loves to be up, just hasn't figured out how to get herself there. She is just starting to bounce and will bounce from sitting to her knees. She walks really well holding on to our hands or on to her walking push toy. She can go back and forth in the room a bunch of times. She is starting to let go of whatever she is holding on to and will stand by herself for a few seconds and then will grab back on to whatever she was holding. Emily has skipped crawling and pulling up and is doing more advanced gross motor skills. It stumps her pediatrician, but since she continues to make progress, she isn't concerned. Emily goes for her 1 year check up on March 1, but will see a different doctor this time.
