Conversations with Emet

Our little Emmetty is speaking up and getting his own interests...

Loves: empty jars of bubbles, bottles (NOT sippy cups), pacifiers, throwing things on the floor, daddy, Eden, Aunt Becky& Uncle Matt, both cats but especially Goldbug who will tolerate a bit more, playing the piano (uses one finger at a time!), shakers, singing, saying "Nah!!!" (for "no"), and weirdly, peas

Favorite books: pat the bunny, pat the zoo, Baby loves to rock, the book with the baby bird egg, Where is Baby's dreidel

Dislikes: many foods - I feel like we got a larger window with Eden where she was actually interested in eating things!  He has gone straight to "carbs please" land except for peas.

Conversations with Emet -

Emet: Babu.
Us: Here's some milk!  This is your Nuby babu.  [sippy cup]
Emet: NAH!!! (pushes sippy away)
(eventually we relent and give him the bottle)
Emet: Babu! (every few seconds, stops sucking the bottle and looks empathically at us, as if to say "I don't know what that other crap was you tried to give me, but when I say 'babu,', this is what I am asking for, got it guys?")


Emet: Mahm.
me: Are you trying to get my attention?
Emet: Naaaah!!
Me (laughs, thus encouraging his emphatic "Naaah!"
