Emma just woke up...

...from her nap and I can hear her on the monitor working thru her vocabulary repertoire. It is so darn cute. Here is a small sampling of what she is muttering to herself:

• a, a, a, a, b, b, b, b, b (we're working up to C-D-E-F-etc)
  
• Emma outside, Emma outside, Emma outside (where do u think I'll be going when I get her up?)
• Ca-coo, Ca-coo, Ca-coo (means: cousin and is, by far, her favorite things/people of all time)
• Baby, Baby, Baby (which she pushes around in her stroller at mach-3 w/ little to no regard for my shins, toes, door-jams, cupboards, etc)
• Daddy bye-bye, daddy bye-bye (She thinks that is Joel's name since he's always running out to work a meeting or a fire call)

That's it for now folks...stay tuned for more Emma Mutterings in the near future!
