Wow, and just like that 6 months has passed since Emmy's birth. I know that it's such a cliche when people say "time flies" but truly, this time around, it really has. I look at her and I'm amazed at how she's no longer just lying there like a log, but either playing happily in her exersaucer or jumping on her jolly jumper. My little girl is growing up. She started solids as well but doesn't seem to really enjoy anything other than carrots at the moment. I think that she wants to eat exactly what we are eating rather than that pureed stuff!
A lot of people ask me if it's different having a girl from a boy and thus far, I've noticed that she's a lot calmer. During one of our play dates, Emmy was hanging with a boy her age, while she was content with staring at her friend; he, on the other hand, just rolling and rolling and rolling non-stop!! It's nice to finally have a "calmer" kid! But we will see what happens once she really starts to move around.
What I cherish the most this time around is seeing the special bond between all the siblings. Aidan takes his big brother role very seriously and protects her like there's no tomorrow. Watch out! :) He greets her with a huge smile and hug in the morning and insists on having "special time" with her daily. He loves her so much!!
Noah emulates his goh goh so he also asks for "special time" with Emmy, too. He also enjoys taking care of her! I was expecting more jealousy from Noah but thus far, he seems to have adjusted quite well. I try really hard to give him lots of attention as a middle child!
