nana and emery

It still amazes me how much i love this little girl. I see her sometimes and just stare in amazement. she's becoming a little girl. She interacts and has likes and dislikes. She is simply amazing. I still can't believe there is a baby living here. I see her sometimes and I'm like wait a minute....where did she come from??

Nana is here with us today, Emery had a temp this morning 102.3. she was not a happy camper. We kept her home from Tiffany's and Nana came over to be with her. she loves her nana. She reached for her as soon as she got here. Some people were put on this earth to be mothers, my mom is one of them. It's so fun to watch them together. She's one lucky little girl.

she crawls around now a days with stuff in her hands. She bangs on stuff and makes all kind of noises. She even crawled INTO the green cabinet in our family room...where her toys are kept. One smart cookie. She loves her sippy cup, but even more she loves drinking out of our glasses. And she's strong. she'll pull your cup right over to her.

A winter storm just hit the east coast so our trip might be canceled. That sucks but we don't want to be unsafe with her in the car. so we'll see what happens tomorrow. We have to cancel the hotel by mid-night tomorrow to not get charged.

9 months in...9 months out

It's official. She's been out longer then in. On Friday Emery hit the big 9 month mark! 17lbs, 27 inchs. Yesterday she stood up by herself in the middle of the room. she did use her toy to boost her up but stood there for a second by herself. That was pretty cool. She has been pulling up on anything and everything for a while now, and can use her push toy and make it down the hall way.

We have been laying low the last few weeks but we have a big road trip coming up. We're headed to New Jersey to see Dave's family. his siblings haven't met her yet so that's exciting.

Her personality is starting to show. She laughs at stuff all the time now. Dave can always make her laugh with his dancing. I must admit, it's pretty funny. She loves water glasses. If someone has a glass of water she wants it...bad. and she's strong. She'll pull it with force and put it right up to her mouth. So we've been giving her sippy cups with water in them. she seems to really like that. She talks to wriggley all the time, we call her the dog whisper....but she's really loud...wonder where she gets that from. She always has a ton of wax in her ears and I told Dave that's her body's way of dealing with my voice.

Next month we're headed to feb for Natalie and Trace's engagement party. Boston...in Feb. crazy.

Happy New Year!

This is a big year for us! Emery turns one!

Christmas update:

Christmas was amazing. Nat, Liv, Carole and Enzo were all down for a week! Emery had a blast with everyone. She fell asleep in River's arms twice while we were out shopping.



We went wedding dress shopping for Nat and went out to lunch at Tanger outlets. It was a great! Enzo was chilling with Emery while we were dress shopping.



We even took Emery to the Apple store! Nana got an iphone!




I took some black and white shots while Emery's aunts were in town:



She got three coats, leg warmers, a full music suite, and some amazing toys from Aunt Carole. (she loves them!)


For New Years Dave, Emery and I went over to Sara and Shawn's house for oysters. It was really nice and Em was a trooper. She hung out until 11PM! Last baby standing....errr sleeping on miss Karin. But she was there. We're getting smarter. We now bring her pj's with us if we are going to be out past 8:00. she falls asleep in the car ride home and we just bring her right up to bed.


Emery stats: She's moving like crazy. She can crawl fast...really fast. and over stuff. She has made it up and over dave's legs a few times and can pull up on anything... including people. She has a little walker thing that she loves. she can move with it on the carpet but once she gets on the wood, it's too fast for her and she falls. Her whole objective is to find something to pull up on. the couch, the baby bouncer seat, any wall or cabinet. It's very clear she wants to walk.

We're headed up to NJ soon to see the Jaskiewicz clan. That should be fun! Long drive though.
