It’s been almost a year since I did an update on Emma!
She turned 2 Jan. 30th,
so she is now 25 months. At 25 months she is talking, babbling non-stop. I
think because she is a fast learner it is easy to sit down and teach her new
things every day. She loves learning and is definitely like a sponge. Her vocabulary
has grown so much I can’t really say how many words she knows now. She is talking
in sentences most of the time and expresses herself pretty well.
Her weight now is 23lbs (10
percentile). I don’t remember her height but it is also in the 10 percentile. She
is a small little girl J
Eating:
She is a very picky eater! I
cant get her to eat anything green. She doesn’t eat any of her veggies. She
loves rice, cereal, pasta, bread, mac and cheese, fruit, yogurt and cheese. I have
been worrying she is not growing enough due to her eating habits, so the doctor
wanted me to provide her with more dairy and vitamins. She doesn’t eat the
vitamins (even the gummy ones) and she barely finishes a cup of milk a day. L
Hopefully this is just one of those toddler phases…
Sleeping:
In terms of sleeping, she is
still waking up at night. After she turned 1 she slept through the night with
no problem, but I think after she started to refuse sleeping in her crib, and
stared sleeping on the mattress only, she started to wake up more frequently. When
that started we began to lay next to her until she fell asleep. This has now
caused her to become dependent on us lying next to her while she sleeps. Once
she wakes up and we are not there, she will start crying. This happens at least
2-3 times a night. Luckily once we are next to her she falls right back to
sleep. Hopefully before the baby arrives we can break this habit. Gotta start
now.
This is her new KURA reversible bed from IKEA. She is sleeping in the bottom for now and we are using the top for storage. She likes to go up there to play as well.

Personality:
Her personality is
definitely starting to develop. She is honestly a very easy and simple kid. Of course
she has her toddler tantrums from time to time, but nothing that makes me feel
like I can’t handle her. She is very friendly. I swear sometimes I think she
can be with a stranger and not care if I’m there or not. She loves to greet
people hello and goodbye even when I don’t ask her to. She loves to dance and
try to sing along every time music comes on. She is so caring and loving to me
and my pregnant belly. I really think she will be a great sister. She is also
so funny…always makes our family laugh with her facial expressions and her funny
sentences. I wish I could have a video record of every single one! She loves to
say the word “together” in Korean. Always wants to do things together. It’s the
sweetest thing. She is also very cautious of herself. But if she does hurt
herself, she barely cries. I took her to get her 2yr blood test + Hep B. shot and she didn’t even cry…this was
done on two separate days too. The doctors were pretty impressed. However she is scared of lions, and sharks. She
is currently very in to Minnie /Mickey mouse and Minions (crazy about minions).
All in all she has a pretty outgoing personality. I cant wait to see how she
keeps developing!
