Looking Good in my Hat

Emma received the most darling hat and jacket/sweater from her Auntie Winnie. It was a beautiful chilly Saturday morning, and perfect time to whip out this adorable outfit! Here are some pictures from today. As you can see, SuSu came to help us get the house ready to sell/take care of Emma while we got things ready!

We have a crawler!

Emma now is crawling! Funny, we thought this day was going to come for a few weeks of getting up on all fours' rocking... but today, I had walked away from her in her room and she got upset and boy, took off crawling on a mission!! It was so funny, and I was so proud...by the time she got to me, she must have realized she did it or she did something, and the smile on her face was priceless!!!


So proud!


Watch out she is on the move!




Check out those rolls! Love it!

Supper Club

We hosted Supper Club at our house! It was Mexican theme - we had delicious food and plenty of fun drinks!!! We had a great time.........

Spent the day with the guys - Daddy & Bop

My Dad to help Courtney with Emma and preparing to put our house up for sale. Here are a few pictures from the day!

Such a funny sleeper!

Emma sometimes sleeps in the funniest positions... From her legs being propped up on the bumber, to using her bumper as a pillow - one of a kind! One thing is, she definitely likes to snuggle up to her bumper at night.

Here are a few funny pictures.

she is now long as the crib is wide! she is a tall girl, wonder where she gets that from!?!


loves to hug/snuggle up to her bumper when she sleeps

Saturday afternoon in Nashville

Court & Emma headed to Nashville for the afternoon while I worked at the Spree. Brenda, one of Pam's good friends, and her son (Patrick - who grew up with Courtney) came over with his daughter, so Emma had a playdate!


Emma now can take steps (with assistance) ;)

The Shopping Spree!

Mom came back again this year to do the Junior League of Raleigh Shopping Spree! She did well again this year, and really enjoys doing the show and seeing all my friends. Thank you to all of you who came by her booth! Here is a picture of us from the Wendesday night Preview Party!!

Emma even came for Friday afternoon! She was the best shopper & helper! Pam also came on Friday, and took Emma around - boy, she got lots of attention & put on quite the performance entertaining everyone! She even skipped her afternoon nap (which was a first), and fell asleep as we pulled out of the parking space...our little party girl does not miss a trick!

Another Emma & SuSu day

My Mom watched Emma for the day today. Of course they did everything fun together. We have taken out some toys & new books to play with, and it is so fun to watch Emma get so excited about each of these toys. You will notice, she is still very interested in any 'tag'. I swear, she could play with a tag for 30 minutes without making a peep. Here are a few pictures from the day.

Ducky - You are so fun

Emma is in the stage now where EVERYTHING is in her mouth, even her bath time pal, Mr. Rubber Ducky. Couldn't resist taking these pictures. She was so funny, and when we went to pull the duck out - she did not want to give it up!

Emma's first NC State Football Game

We took Emma to her first NCSU football (vs. Boston College) game today! Court & I have been going to the games for years, and were so excited to be able to take Emma. Emma was SO GOOD!! She did not fuss one time, and even took a 30 minute nap in the game. Unbelievable, she is the cutest fan. :) We ended up winning the game, 44-17. The weather was GORGEOUS! All in all, a fun day!

Here are also some cute pictures from our breakfast (pre-game).
