More Pictures from Ike

Here are some more pictures from Ike. It was a crazy time for sure. We stayed at my brother's house (George) from Wednesday to Friday. He had power and we didn't. Emma loved playing with her cousins. William and Emma played all the time and got to go on walks with Nana also. Thanks George and Nicole for allowing us to stay at Hotel Leppert!!!

Everything Back To Normal

So everything is finally getting back to normal now. Our power came back last Friday. I can finally catch up on all my cartoons I've been missing. There are still a few neighborhoods still without power including my grandma Nana's house but hopefully they get their power back soon. There are still a lot of big trees laying all over the streets but they are slowly being picked up as well. Check out the video below. We had to drive under a tree right after Hurricane Ike.

Mommy and Daddy said we are going to go to El Paso for Thanksgiving so that should be lots of fun. I haven't been there since I was a little baby. I can't wait to see everyone. Well talk to you soon!

Hurricane Ike

Just wanted to update everyone. We are doing fine. We stayed at our house during the storm and it was very intense. Yesterday, we decided to head to Austin, so we could have power and all. Emma is much happier here. We were lucky and did not receive any damage to our house. We will post some pictures soon of what the Woodlands looked like after Ike. They say we could be without power for 2 weeks, so Emma and Mom will probably stay in Austin, while Dad may have to return to work. We will keep everyone updated, but thank you to all of you who were thinking about us through this.

Photo Shoot

Today was a fun day. The weather was great outside! Mom and Dad decided it was a day for pictures. Here are some sneak previews of my photo shoot.

Here I am smiling and having fun!

I was just admiring the scenery!

This is the serious face, but I'm still cute!

Just a quick update from the parents: Emma is doing great. She was a little sick last week but is feeling much better now. She is so much fun and such a great baby. As you can see, we took her out for pictures today and there was never a grumpy moment. She is starting to get into everything. She is pulling herself up on anything that she can reach. She is almost 8 months old and is squirming around all the time. How time flies! Well that's all for now.
