A Quick Hello- Updated Pictures

Well I am just sitting here waiting to head off to the Airport to visit yet another state (Ohio) and Aunt Daniela and Uncle Jeff. I am excited for another airplane ride and Mommy is hoping that I get a great nap while we are in the air. I thought I would share some pictures of me eating my first REAL FOOD, avacados. I am not sure what to think of them but Daddy sure seems to like them with chips and a cold Yuengling (beer). I also got a chance to try out Mommy's work chair now that I can sit- what do you think? Since Mommy decided to stay home with me, I think I will get more time sitting in it than she will. I hope you like the new pictures and we will talk when I get back! Love you all!

Ps. Here are some pictures of my fun trip- I stayed awake for an entire flight and I was a very good girl. Mommy is hoping that continues as we are booked to fly to Arizona and to Colorado this spring.

Happy Valentine's Day

Hello to all of my Valentine's out there!
I hope you had a wonderful holiday. I wanted to update you on all the new things that I have been doing now that I am almost 5 whole months old. I have found a few things in the last month one of them is my voice and the other are my feet. I think once I get my feet in my mouth it is going to make it so much harder to talk! Here are a few videos of some of my new skills- including me sitting up by myself for the first time.









In other news- I am now eating Oatmeal and I am liking it more and more every day. I am also getting to play more in my jumperoo and exersaucer so I can practice standing all by myself. Here are a few more pictures of my week. Hope you have a great one!

Love,
Emma





My Valentine's Day Dinner With Mommy and Daddy

Wednesday, February 4, 2009

Super Sunday!

So as I told you last week this Sunday was a very special day.
This Sunday my Mommy and Daddy vowed to raise me in the knowledge of Jesus and to help me make the decision to follow him someday. So Feb 1st will always be my dedication Sunday. I got to get all dressed up in a very special gown that my Great Grandma Marcella made for my Great Aunt Marcia to wear when she was baptised over 60 years ago. Since then 11 different people in my Daddy's family ( including my Daddy, Grandpa vG and my cousin SoLace) have worn this gown when their parent's promised to teach them about Jesus. It is very special. I also got to share this exciting day with my Grami and Grandpa Green who made a special trip out during tax season to see my big day. Mommy and Daddy's friends Mark and Jen also came to church with to share it with us. Here is a video of the special service. It was indeed Super!





After my dedication came another very special event- at least to my Daddy- the Super Bowl. As most of you know the Pittsburgh Steelers played the Arizona Cardinals which caused a divided house here in PA. We had a party with several of our friends and they were all rooting for the Steelers- but since Mommy went to college in AZ we had to support the Cardinals. I wore my ASU cheerleading outfit for the special event. In the end the Steelers eeked it out but most of us had a good time. Thanks to Grami for trying to babysit me through the event even though I was living up to my outfit- I was a little Devil!






Love- Emma
