He loves pulling himself up on his walker
Emerson now has 8 teeth!! They came in pretty quick. After those first two on the bottom popped through, they all just started popping through really fast. He can now eat pretty much anything since he has the teeth to chew and he really does like to eat just about anything we give him. We gave him a pickle once and he took a huge chunk out of it. He's definitely my son if he loves pickles haha. His favorite food right now is still probably squash. Whenever I feed him squash for dinner, he just scarfs it down. I'm trying to get him to start drinking out of sippy cups now that he has teeth because he just likes to chew on the bottle and play with it rather than drink out of it. Silly kid.
His favorite room in the house right now is definitely the bathroom. I always have to keep the door closed because he knows exactly where to go and makes a beeline for the bathroom and tries to get into everything. He loves the bath so much so I think that's why he really likes to go to the bathroom because he knows the bath is in there. He gets SUPER excited when he hears the bath filling up. He crawls over to the bathroom really fast and starts squealing. He would probably spend all day in the bath if he could.
For Father's Day this year, Emerson I put together a little photoshoot for Jordan. It was Jordan's first official Father's Day so it was fun being able to surprise him and do something other than just buying him a tie haha. He already has plenty of those!
This is what we framed for Jordan for his Father's Day present. It looks so cute in the frame and all set up on our dresser.
Wearing daddy's favorite hat
It was actually a lot harder than it looks to hold him up like this haha he's so heavy!
Happy Father's Day daddy!!!
Doctor Update:
At Emerson's last doctors appointment, his head was measuring very well. We were originally told that he would probably need the helmet for about 6 months but at our last appointment, the doctor said since he was measuring so well, he'd probably only need it for a couple more months! He has another appointment on Monday so fingers crossed that his numbers are good and that he won't have to have the helmet for much longer because the summer with that helmet is not fun haha.
Random Emerson facts:
-Weighs about 21 pounds!

He really enjoyed sitting in that laundry basket
Emerson's first splash pad experience. He was not a fan haha.
He really likes Disney movies. Definitely my kid!
What a little sneak
We took Emerson to the flight museum here in town. He really liked sitting in that old jeep.
Emerson's pals, Karson and Mason. He absolutely loves playing with Karson. He gets the biggest smile on his face and loves to chase him around. So happy that he has a friend he can play with while we're here in Rexburg.
Emerson loves to play with Karson
This last month has sure been a fun one full of little surprises. Emerson is learning so much and is definitely soaking it all in. He has his own little quirks that I absolutely love. He's in that phase where he doesn't like to sit through church so I don't really get much out of the lessons these days but it's good that he's understanding that church is where we go every Sunday. I'm excited to see what new and fun things Emerson has in store for us this coming month. Maybe next month I'll be able to report on him walking!!
