"Bubble wrap is not for babies" and how Jemma is growing!

I found myself uttering those words recently, as Jemma has decided to explore everything! She is so active right now. It is really fun, but we definitely have to watch her every move or we find her doing things like, biting bubble wrap, chewing on our plant, pulling the cat's tail, etc. She is a very curious little baby, and of course, she learns about everything by putting it right into her mouth :) She has grown so fast this past month - I feel like she learns something new everyday! Here's a quick recap for everyone:

1. Not only is she crawling, but she is cruising along furniture :)
2. Her first tooth broke through about a week or so ago (it was the bottom right tooth), and I think she's working on the bottom left. She looks cute with her little teeth.
3. She loves to walk holding your hands.
4. Jemma babbles constantly - mamamama, dadadada, nananana, bababab. She says mama most consistently and with the most meaning. Makes me smile.
5. She's going to be a bunny for Halloween.
6. She eats most foods now, except for the baby no-nos, like dairy, egg, etc.
7. She has learned to wave!

Jemma is just a fun child to be around, and everyday is an adventure!! I love this age!

Every stage in her growth is going to be an exciting adventure, as much for you and Tom, as for her. I'm sure her grandparents are enjoying watching the two of you marvel in her accomplishments as much as you enjoy watching Jemma!
