Favorites

These are a few of Emily's *favorite* things:

• Crawling and standing, as evidenced above.
• Visiting the birdies (parakeets, I think) at a toy store on Cortland.
• Splashing up a storm during bath time.
• Picking mint from our herb garden.
• Singing/humming softly to herself.
• Noshing on puffed wheat and cheerios. 
• Dogs. She is crazy about dogs. When she spies them in a book she lets out a really loud squeal. The same thing happens when she sees her stuffed dog from across the room. I'm pretty sure Matt's been coaching her.

Here's her squeal captured in a photo. (We held the dog next to the camera.)
