Walking

Just a quick update. Emma is WALKING!! She thinks it is so cool. She is all over the place. She likes to go from sitting on the floor to standing without holding onto anything. Every time she does it, she looks at us and gives a big smile. She is so proud of herself and so are we. I will post some pictures of her later today.

Surprise!!! The BIG 30!!

Well I have joined the club of 3o year olds now. Daniel threw me a surprise party Saturday night. I thought we were going to a disco party at his hotel, but had no one idea that the party was actually at my brother's house. It was so much fun and we had such a great time. I wasn't able to post all of the pictures, I only put up a few. Thanks everyone for sharing this awesome birthday with me. Thanks Daniel for the party and thanks George and Nicole for hosting it at your house. You all are awesome!

Emma's First Birthday

It is so hard to believe that our little girl is a year old. This year has been so amazing, Emma is such a wonderful blessing. She turned 1 on Sunday, the 18th. We had her first birthday party on Saturday and she had tons of fun. It was great to have our friends and family there to help celebrate. Thank you to everyone for making this day very special for Emma.

Emma's little cake. Both cakes were made by her fabulous babysitter, Cheryl.

The big cake. She loves Care Bears for some reason.

A little taste of cake first.

This is when she discovered what to do with the cake.

Sorry!

Okay so it has been a long time since we have updated the blog. A lot has happened since then also. Emma had her pictures taken with Santa and also had her first Christmas. The holidays were wonderful and we really enjoyed them. She is now almost a year old. Emma will be a year old on the 18th of this month, how time flies. She is doing so many things including taking steps all over. She is still learning how to really walk but is such a dare devil and tries to do it all the time now. Daniel and I love watching all the things she does and how much she changes and grows on a daily basis. Well here are a lot of pictures from the holidays and all. Enjoy!
