Here are a few short videos that I took of Emma last week. I was trying to get her to count to ten, but she was more interested in playing in the bathroom sink. She has a little stool that she stands on and likes to turn on the water.

She's pretty good with her counting. She can start with "one, two, three..." I don't think I've ever actually heard her count in sequence from one to ten, however she gets pretty close. Sometimes she starts with five, and says "five, six, seven, eight, nine, TEN!" If you listen close enough, you can hear her counting some numbers.

She also has been smiling (a fake smile) and saying "CHEESE" when she sees a camera pointing at her. In the second video she opens the door and rams her stroller into my legs, then says "CHEESE!" :-)
