Finally feeling a little better

Breakfast this morning

Sporting her Brenham Cub green

Emrie is finally feeling better.  Yesterday she went to "big school" and the teachers said she was fine...just not as happy as she usual.  They said she was a little stingy with her smiles.  She was great when she got home.  Very playful.  She ate all of her chicken and mashed potatoes which is huge because she wouldn't take anything but a bottle for two days when she was really feeling bad. 

The last few days Emrie would pitch a fit everytime Brian or I would try to give her a bottle.  We couldn't figure out what was wrong.  We always held her on our lap and just fed her.  Now, all of a sudden, she wouldn't take it.  Just yesterday, Brian was trying to feed her before bedtime and she wouldn't take her "bedtime" bottle.  She was upset and he was frustrated so he put her bottle on the floor and sat her down next to it in front of some of her toys - then it happened!  She picked up the bottle and started to feed herself!  That little toot didn't want us to feed her because she wanted to do it.  Ah hah!  Same thing this morning.  As long as she got to hold the bottle she was happy.  Heaven forbid we try to hold it and NEVER EVER TRY TO TAKE IT AWAY OR WIPE HER MOUTH WHILE SHE'S DRINKING IT : )

Awww...our little baby is growing up!
