Emmy sucks!

Already, Emerson has done something very important today:  sucking.  My goal was for her to drink 4 oz of her Alimentum formula from a sippy cup by the end of the day (Alimentum has 20 calories per ounce and hydrates-wohoo!).  Already, she has consumed 2.5 oz by 9:15, so I think she will surpass that goal.  This is all because she figured out how to suck instead of requiring us to give little squirts in her mouth.  She was GULPING it down a bit this morning.  It was great to see.  Her eyes would get really big and she would take a big breath afterwards from drinking so much (for her).

Maybe this is the BIG thing she does today.  It is only 9:45, so we'll see, but if it is, it is a GOOD thing.
