Red Wagon




Grandma & Pa pa got Emma a little red wagon. She loves riding in it. We have to hide it when it's not in use otherwise she wants to be in it at all times. It is so cute seeing her giggle.

Blowing kisses

It is so cute, Emma had (sortof) learned to blow kisses. Here is a video with grandma and Emma blowing kisses.

Swim Lessons




Emma and I are taking a Mommy and Me swim class. She loves the water. Although, she hates to lay back in the water. She screams and cries every time I try. It is so weird, she doesn't mind laying back in the bath tub. We are learning how to blow bubbles, although she just drinks or inhales the water. We are learning how to do what they call "scoops" or stroking the arms. Kicking, floating, and today jumping from the side. Well, since she can't stand it was more like falling from the side, but she actually did it. It is a lot of fun.

Beautiful Baby


Now this makes up for the Chicken Head picture. Isn't she beautiful?

Chicken Head!


Emma decided to put all her food in her hair as usual. This is what happens after cleaning and mom playing with it. Good black mail pictures!

Our Family


(P.S. I know I look pregnant, but I am not. I had my hips tilted funny holding Emma. I still liked the picture anyways!)

70 words

My baby is a genius. She still can't walk, but she is a genius. We went to the Pediatrician yesterday for her 15 mo checkup. Well, two days before the appointement I decided to write down all the words she says. Of course the pronunciation is not correct, ie boop for book. But she only says boop for a book, nothing else. Anyways her Pediatrician said that counted. Well, she knows almost 70 words!!! Yes, that is right 70. Well, her Dr. said that she didn't think she ever had a baby say that much at 15 mo. My guess is that no other parent had sat down and actually written them down, or like my friend Traci, she didn't count a word unless it was pronounced correctly (I told her that it did count.) Did you know the average amount of words is 6, that's it. And that is average! Some don't even say that many at 15 mo old. I couldn't believe it. My baby is a genius. =) The Dr. was very impressed. Overall, the Dr. said she look great and seemed to be a really great baby. I agree!! I am so blessed to have our little Emma. We thank God for her every night.

Spoon?




This morning for breakfast I let Emma use her fork and spoon. I can see this is going to take a lot of practice. She got yogurt everywhere. It would probably be better if I just let her eat naked.
