Nearly two weeks ago, Emma decided that she was finished with the bottle. She had one for breakfast, one mid-day, and then refused that night's bottle. That was twelve days ago. I'm okay with her giving it up, but she has also been refusing every other beverage from all sort of cups and sources. I have been pumping her full of pureed foods that have lots of water, and yogurt for her calcium, but overall her intake hasn't been that great. Way to stress out momma, baby! Today however, I think she finally gets it. Over the past few days she has taken an ounce or two out of a particular sippy cup we have, and today she's had over seven ounces already. Finally! She still screams when I try to give her milk, but I'll settle for a little apple juice and water. We'll work on milk...
Emma has a new tooth also, her left lateral incisor. She looks so goofy with so many teeth. I miss that gummy baby smile, but she's still cute with a toothy grin. She's cruising all over and letting go for brief periods. She will walk with a push toy but prefers to crawl. She is quite bossy now, and pitches a little fit when she doesn't get her way right away. SO very different to the Emma of a few months ago. I can't believe her birthday is this week!
