8 months

Fall

Just growing...

Spends a lot of time like this ready to crawl

She has learned how to go from laying back up to sitting...this is the beginning

My old kicks... :)  They are called Wildcats :)

This is my favorite of the girls.  It reminds me of a t-shirt I used to wear in college... Looks like Emilynn and Haven are in a deep conversation...

My little Aggie girl.

Swinging

Kodi tolerates Emilynn very well.  When he is annoyed, he just gets up and moves :)

Daddy time

Morning jogs

I have just started to jog again, but now Kodi and I have added a stroller to the mix. Since I've practiced walking forever, I figured it was time to start jogging! :) Kodi does great with the stroller. Emilynn finally gets to ride facing forward. Here is her first day of seeing the world the "right way" and Kodi being a patient "brother". :)

Pears and Peas

Learning how to use a sippy cup... Getting there...

Mmmmm.... pears... so good that I can do it myself!

Peas...pretty please :)

A few big events...

September has been a busy month for us already... September is a birthday month in our family with over 7 or so birthdays between family and close friends. Emilynn was also dedicated this month on top of all the normal celebration. So here are a few pics and events...

First we celebrated Papa's 85th birthday! :)

Then we celebrated Emilynn's dedication then Granny's birthday...

Obaa made Emilynn's smocked dress. She also made shoes and a necklace and bracelet. I made her bow. :)

A beautiful angel baby. Love it!

Emilynn was dedicated with Lily and a few other friends from church. Emilyn n and Lily looked absolutely stunning in their smocked dresses, bows and necklaces!!!

A family photo! :)

Obaa, Ojii and Grandma...beautiful family!!!

Four generations on Granny's 84th birthday!!!

So that was a busy few weeks... Emilynn is doing great. She has been eating a ton of solid food! :) She likes pretty much everything. She has had carrots, zucchini, sweet potatos, apples, pears, bananas... I think that is it. We need to try peas again. She would love to hold the spoon herself, of course. :) She is learning her sippy cup and getting better every day. She is making some new sounds...grunting but also a lot of goos and of course cackling out loud. ;) We absolutely love seeing her grow and change. She is a precious little one.

More to come...

6 months and counting

Emilynn was 15 lbs 10 oz and 26 3/4" long. She is average weight but in the 90% for length/height! We had fun doing a little photo shoot for her...
