Our Second Week with Emerson and Updates

Zane was so sweet trying to hold Emerson, but he gave up really soon after she started crying. He did give her some hugs and kisses first though.
He took holding her so seriously and was very focused. :)
Hanging out on the couch...

The three of us took our first trip to the park the other day and we used our double stroller for the first time. Zane kept trying to hold Emerson's hand. Luckily she slept most of the trip so I could play with Zane.

This week we were also able to make it to Park Meadows Mall, Monument for a day, and to the library.

Zane's random updates:
* He doesn't like his hands to be dirty, so right when they get dirty he says, "Oh man!" and asks to wash his hands. He also doesn't like crumbs getting on him or the floor, so he wants to pick them up or sweep them right away. He also wipes up his own spills and actually does clean up well.
* He has gone to the bathroom on his own potty or our toilet lot's of times now. He is getting better and better at asking when he needs to go. He never forgets to get his sticker.
* He says, "Love you, Mommy or Dada" a lot now and means it.
* He answers with "Ok, yeah" or "sure" or "yep" when he's saying yes.
* He cheers for the Nuggets when any basketball game is on..." Go Nuggets!!"
* He tells us either "I like it" or "I don't like it."
* He is talking so so much now, with pretty long sentences. It's really amazing.


Emerson's random updates:
* She is sleeping already so well at night. Although she does wake up every 2 1/2 - 3 hours to eat, in between she is out cold. We are lucky!
* She sleeps through Zane's loud playing, yelling, banging, and his pushing of her seat or swing.
* She is eating and pooping like a champ!
