The future Gerber baby ;)

So Emma is 5 months today and so much has happened since the last post! Well we started Emma on cereal at 4 1/2 months and she is doing great! She also likes to wear it! Well have had 2 more attempts in the swimming pool. The first at Grandma Lori's and Grandpa Larry's house. Emma loved it! The pool was warm like bath water and Emma was just splashing around! The 2nd time was at Great Grandma and Great Grandpa Ruiz's house this past weekend, and again, she loved it! Grandpa Roland (Richard's dad) got Emma to laugh more than we have seen or heard ever! It was so precious! She is also very close to being able to sit up unsupported!! And she is also trying to figure out how to get herself up into a crawling position. We were told it is only a matter of a few more weeks before she is crawling!!! Yay!!!
During the 4th of July weekend, my parents and us went to Aledo to see Weldon and LeAnne and their kids. During this visit it became clear that Emma wasn't letting anyone hold her except me, Richard, and our parents. It was becoming wearying because Richard and I had to keep taking turns holding her so that we could socialize with everyone. I decided that this habit of Emma needing me to hold all day needed to be broken before we had a serious problem on our hands. So Richard called Lori a few days later and asked if she would like to have Emma for the night. Of coarse she said yes. Emma had the greatest time and came home soooo happy! So since then Emma has stayed the night 3 times and loves it everytime!
