Christmas 2008

Here are pictures from Christmas at our house. It was a very warm day you'll see from the pictures.

Here is the "fancy" tree with the Polar Express Train from Grandmom and Grandpop.

Here are some pictures of Emma enjoying her gifts.

Christmas was even more exciting because Emma has started walking. She still crawls, but she is walking more and more every day and is going farther and farther. We are so excited!

Christmas in NY and Aiden's Birthday

We went to NY a couple of weeks ago to have Christmas with Gus's family and to go to Aiden's birthday party.

Aiden had a great party and Emma had a lot of fun!

Emma loved the dog and the cat. Luckily she does not have my allergies so far.

Here is Emma enjoying one of her new outfits and her new riding Pony.

At Daycare, they had a Christmas Party and holiday sing along. Emma loved watching the other kids and singing with them.

Santa and other pictures

Emma was scared of Santa, so I had sit with them. I was not prepared for this at all!

These pictures were done right before Emma's birthday. They didn't scan in the best, the background came in a little dark, but the picture of Emma in her polka dot dress is my favorite!

1 Year Old!!!

Emma has been growing so fast lately. She just started taking a couple of steps before her party and she is finally starting to eat more solid foods.

Emma had a great time at her birthday party this past weekend. She loved playing with all of her friends and she loves her new toys and clothes. Thank you so much to all of you that came to her party and thank you to those of you that were unable to come but still thought of Emma. She is very lucky to have such wonderful friends and family. Here are some pictures from her party and Emma enjoying her new toys.

The cake for the princess...

Emma was a little unsure of the cake at first, but she definitely ended up liking it.

Camryn really liked the cake too...

Emma loved playing with her friends.

Emma wasn't really into opening the presents, but thank you to Lara for all of the help with opening them. However, Emma really liked this card...

Emma wanted to help push Naomi on the new toy.

Here is Emma enjoying some of her new toys.

Thanksgiving

For Emma's first Thanksgiving, we had guests. Emma was excited to have her Nana, Uncle Brian, Aunt Sarah and cousin Aiden visit for the holiday.

Emma, the Ladybug

Emma's daycare had a parade for Halloween. Emma loved it. She wanted to walk, so daddy helped her, but she only made it about halfway and then she got tired out. Emma was so excited to see all of the kids, she was pointing at the kids and waving to them like crazy.





Emma helped us hand out the candy at home for the trick-or-treaters.


This is Emma's new favorite toy. All she wants to do is walk, but she still needs some help, so this toy is perfect for her.
