Lately...

As you know, Emily is REALLY into reading books.  Lately she has been reading to herself and reading to us far more than she ever did before and every day I am surprised by a new word she has picked up or an animal she knows by sight.  Thankfully I was able to get a little of it on video this evening once Daddy got home.  As you will see though, Emily made sure I did not feel left out.  
(I don't know why the focus is so in and out - it was sitting on a tri-pod and not zoomed in.  Maybe the lighting?)
 
(This was a totally adorable video of you reading with Daddy telling him all of the animals and then turning to me and the camera, pointing and telling me the animals until I repeated them.  You were also crossing your arms and swinging them from side to side.)

  1. I love that she points at you when she tells you the animal. So sure of the answer!

  6. Adorable! I giggled every time she pointed to you and so emphatically announced the animal or insect. She was serious!

    P.S. I'm loving the (old) new blog. It doesn't make my computer freeze up and I'm able to leave comments. Yea!

  7. That hippo gets me every time. How could you ever tell Emily it is rude to point fingers, when she makes it look so cute! I hope Emily's daddy reads to me at Christmas!
