Exploring

Emery is now exploring everything she can get her hands on.  She is like a shadow that follows you around the house.  It is fun having her mobile, but lots of work!  Here's some fun photos from recent

Fun on Papa's Boat!

Exploring Mac & Cheese, and loving it!

Knock, Knock!  Loves playing on the deck

Having some swinging fun at the park

Clapping as she was enjoying Dad pushing her! :)

Standing up, getting into the toys. 

Can you believe that cutie will be 1 very soon! :)



Crawling!

Emery woke up last Monday morning (8.6.12) and decided she was going to crawl.  Sunday she wasn't even trying to move, so this sure shocked me to see her out of the corner of my eye take two crawl movements to get a toy! 

I continued to watch her all day, trying to get a video of her so we could show daddy.  Finally she gave me this!

I was so proud of her, and now she is into everything.  If you tell her no, she looks back at you, smirks, and laughs and continues to do it.  Let's say we have some baby proofing to do yet in our house!

Fun with Friends

Once a month, us girls try and get together for some mommy and baby time together.  We rotate through houses and have some wine and good needed laughs together.  This past time at Chelsea's we tried to get a picture of all the kids, so here goes!

Isaac, Emery, Addison, Haley, Bryn, and Cooper



Zoo

Emery and I adventured to the Madison Zoo recently when it finally wasn't so hot out. She was able to spot the larger animals when they were moving, but not many animals were out.  Little bummed!

She loved the tiger, as it just paced back and forth in front of us, and she watched so intently.  Look at that face of confusion.  She also enjoyed the arangatangs, but was hard to get a picture because of carrying her with me.  Overall it was a fun time together.  We then stopped by Dad's work to visit and he showed Em off.  A fun Friday in our books!
