Not a baby

About a month ago Emmie and I were walking around the neighborhood and I looked at her and realized she looked so grown up and didn't really look like a baby anymore. It made me a bit sad. The first year or tow they change so much but they still look like babies...they're just bigger babies. Now she looks like a preschooler not a baby. In the last few months she has really started to thin out. Her legs have really thinned out a lot...we're still working on the tummy but she's getting there...haha...I love that big ol' tummy! She seems so much older in other ways too. She is very smart (I'm her mother so I'm quite biased!) and she talks in complete sentences most of the time so she seems so old...sometimes she sounds like a little adult (probably due to the fact that she mimics EVERYTHING we say!). Here are some pictures so you can see how much she's grown!
