 Emma got her second tooth last week, which she's been using to good effect on everything in her reach. I've got to really watch what odd things pop into her mouth as her main goal in life seems to be to collect as many choking hazards in her tiny cheeks as possible.
Her vocabulary is expanding greatly, though her pronunciation hasn't kept up. She understands all sorts of words now - bird, bee, hi, hair, where's, our names, and many more. She loves pointing and making a "huh?" noise. She says "hi" pretty well and is somewhat understandable with words like "hair" and "bird".
We're also discovering quite a few things about her personality. She loves music and starts clapping and dancing if we start singing. Emma also enjoys various games such as playing with Legos (like her brother) and being pushed around in various impromptu vehicles. Last night I pushed her around on a flattened cereal box. She'd then keep going back to it and sitting down in hopes that it would magically start up and propel her about the room. It did, of course, but only after I placed my hands on it and made a "broooom brooom" noise.

Emma can't seem to stop growing

 Emma can't seem to stop growing. She's not quite walking, but she'll stand up for awhile until she realizes that she's much more mobile on the ground. Emma's also gotten quite good at language, though her understanding far outpaces her ability to speak. You can ask her where people and things are, and she'll understand more often than not. That doesn't necessarily mean she'll do what you ask, as she's clearly a willful child.
Emma's also become fond of the "chicken dance" song. We'll start singing it at the dinner table and her eyes light up and she tries to wiggle and clap along with the rest of us. What a wacky family we are.
