9 months...

Emma turned 9 months in January and she is as active as ever!!  She definitely has a stubborn streak in her and she is very persistent in trying to get what she wants.  Of course, she's into everything...and just yesterday learned the magic that happens when you spin the roll of toilet paper :)  She's eating more and more of Mommy and Daddy's foods and enjoys most of them.  It is fun watching how much she is learning everyday.











Just last week Emma and I were able to take a trip down to Sandy to see my best friend Jen and her little girl, Maddie.  It was fun watching Emma and Maddie together.  We sat them by one another on the piano bench to let them pound on the keys and Emma reached over and put both of her arms around Maddie.  Then she proceeded to clap her hands so she was hitting Maddie's belly and back.  Maddie wasn't so sure about that, and I don't blame her!  I wish I could have gotten a video of it.  I just have a few pictures we snapped right before we left, and they're the best we could do with two active little girls!

All She Wanted For Christmas Were Her Two Front Teeth...

A few days before Christmas we noticed Emma's two bottom teeth were visible just beneath her gums.  One popped through a day or two after Christmas and the other one right after New Year's.  So, she didn't quite get them for Christmas, but it was pretty close! :)

The Holidays


The holidays came and went so quickly, as they always seem to do.  My favorite part of the holidays is being able to spend more time with our loved ones.  It's always a little sad when it's all over and we have to get back to "real life".  Here's some pictures showing some of the fun we had throughout December.  Emma had a big month... learned how to crawl, move along the furniture, and got her first tooth!  



Waiting outside the Red Iguana for dinner.























Emma would spend forever standing with her bouncer or car seat trying to figure out how to get inside and just entertaining herself.

I just think Emma's face is hilarious!  Plus it shows off her ability to curl her tongue :)



Doing the splits!
