.... orange you glad I didn't say banana?

If you know the joke, you know that on round 3 or 4 it should switch to "orange."  Charlotte still doesn't quite get knock knock jokes, but she thinks this one is hilarious.  The problem is, it's not the punchline that she thinks is funny, its the repetitive banana that gets her giggling.  I tried to explain it and then she came up with this one on her own.

Knock knock...
Who's there?
Pear!
Pear who?
Pear and banana!

Emmy at 9 months

She's a girl on the go, and don't try to stop her!  On Sunday, Emmy celebrated turning 9 months old by walking across our Sunday School classroom.  Most of the time she manages a wobbly 7 or 8 steps before she topples over, but she is bound and determined to figure it out.  Her favorite things to do right now are pull wipes out of the container, chase after the dog and cats, and play with mom's necklace. 

She's not quite the food connoisseur that she was last month.  She won't eat anything and everything that you offer to her anymore.  She much prefers to feed herself now, which means that she is getting a bath every night.  I'm not sure if she still has a taste for dog food, we've been doing a good job of keeping it out of her reach.
