Fun Times


We had a good day at the zoo....the weather was nice and we beat the crowd. In the beginning of our stroll through the zoo, Emerson did not pay too much attention to the animals because she had just woke up. She slowly started watching them and picking out her favorites. I was excited to see the koala bears and the monkeys, but Emerson seemed to enjoy the goats! Who enjoys goats?! She actually cried when we left the goat area. I am guessing that she thought they were large doggies!

On another note, Emerson finally had her 9 month check-up with her pediatrician. This is the first visit that Emerson has not been underweight and vertically challenged. She is up to a whopping 19.1 pounds and is 27-1/2 inches in length. She is in the 50th percentile for both...meaning that she is well proportioned. Since Emerson will not let me peek into her mouth, the doctor confirmed for me that Emerson is getting four of her top teeth all at once. Poor thing...I went out and bought her some teething tablets tonight. Hopefully, they work better than Tylenol. Our next doctor's visit is not until after Emerson's first birthday, so there will be many other postings between now and then.

I'm so happy Emerson had fun, she looks like she's totally zoned in on something, is it the goats? And you're right...goats???
