4 month cupcakes







Wow its been a while since I posted last. Most of the reason is that I cannot post pics to the blog because something that my husband did to my laptop. He is working on fixing the problem so hopefully when its back to normal I will start posting more. We celebrated Emma's 4 month gottcha day on Friday with a little mini Halloween party. Emma had some friends and family over and gots lots of fun Halloween gifts. I made cat cupcakes and Emma looked every so cute in a little pumpkin out with a orange tutu. She is doing great. Physical thearpy is going really great and she has come such a long way. We now only need therapy twice a month. We did start on speech therapy but only once a month. They would like her to have about 15 words now. She says hi, thanks, bless you,eye, Nicky (which sounds like deck), turtle, hot, da da, and said (short for Sadie our dog). The speech therapist said her muscle tone in her mouth and jaw are not fully develop yet that why she has a hard time learning new words and chewing certain foods. So we have some exercises to strengthen those muscles. She is such a smart cookie. She understands and does everything we ask her. She is a really happy baby and laughs all the time. She loves to be swung and even loves the Phillies. We got her a cheerleader outfit with pom poms and she walks around shaking them as we say go Phillies. She is having a great time in music class. She dancing up a storm and does all the movements that the teacher does. We go to story book class once a week and she gets to do a craft each week. She has made a apple tree, pumpkin patch and Dalmatian. they are so cute. We go to CHOP this week for her checkup and we have our home study follow up on Tues. Looking forward to see what everyone says. I going to try and post a couple pics I took from my cell phone. We also went horseback riding and Emma absolutly loved it. I couldn't beleive she was not scard she couldn't wait to get up on the horse and laughed the whole way. The pic I have she looks a little scared but that was because she was ready to get mad because the horse stopped.
