Time for a Change

I think its fair to say that this blog is pretty much done. I love looking back at it and seeing all the wonderful moments and memories made but it just doesn't fit me anymore. I won't ever delete it but its time for a change. I have moved over to Tumblr. I love being able to do everything mobile from my iPhone. It opens up so many more options for documenting this crazy busy life.

Happy First Birthday Emery!

So i have totally slacked on the blog and hope to do better this year! Today is our sweet little girl's first birthday! We love you Emery!

 

 

Teething

It sucks. Poor Emery is getting a her third tooth in the last week coming in. This time this meant 4:45am wake up call. No person should start there day this early. She was bawling so it required some cuddling in our bed. She fell asleep for awhile but unfortunately for me I did not. She was fine come 6:30 but this mama is dragging today.

 

I'm praying this tooth makes it way through today and I have no more early wake up calls this week!  

Daddy's Girl

Cam started he's new job this week. He had two weeks at home with the kids. After day one he said he didn't know how SAHM do it. God love him, he did great and the kids loved having him home. Especially Em. She has become such a daddy's girl.

   

Blog Today

I really wish I could do this blog justice and actually write on it but it's easier for me to just update with pics or a video or a thought or two. So that's what this will have to be for now.  

It snowed today. Second day this week. I got to go out and play with my boy. He insisted on using a real carrot for his snowman's nose. He wanted it be just like Olaf from Frozen. Me too kid, Olaf was hilarious.

8 months!

Well I better get this 8 month post done before Emery turns 9 months Sunday…geez. It completely slipped my mind. Emery is any easy fun all smiles baby girl. She is really blossoming into her own. She loves to play with her brother more than anything else in the world. Loves to crawl/chase him around. When Cole comes fast at her she starts laughing and crawling as fast as she can to get away. It’s adorable. I just love the sweetness that she radiates. Its hard to not be happy around her. We love this blue eyed girl so much!

 

 

- Emery has been standing up on her more and for a longer period of time. It happens most of the time when she doesn't realize she’s doing it. Once she does she slowly squats down and crawls. There has been a step forward a few times but I think we still have at least a month till she’s confident enough to take more steps. 

-She is still a peanut, just hit 17 pounds last week. 

-Most of her winter clothes are big on her but she’s seems to finally being growing too big for her 6 month clothing. 

-Emery talks a lot, its most just noises and of course Dada 

-She has learned to clap. And loves doing it. -Can hold her bottle but doesn't do it all the time. Still needs help. 

-She’s a good little eater. Three meals a day with a mixture of baby food and finger foods. Hands down her favorite finger food is pizza and butternut squash. 

-A big fan of the kitty cats and tries to pet them whenever they are close. 

-Has two teeth still, and seems to be teething again. Can’t see or feel anything so it’s going to be awhile. 

-Her hair has really come in and it’s pretty blond. This has made her look so grown up. 

-She still wears bows and headbands with no compliant. I’m hoping this continues.

-Loves all her brothers toys which she inserts into her mouth right away.

 

I promise to do a better job next month with an update on what Emery’s up to! Its been the fastest 9 months of my life. And I’m loving it!

 

Happy Halloween
