Happy Thanksgiving!

We spent Emily's first Thanksgiving in Kansas visiting Josh's family. I was super worried about the plane ride, but not too worried about anything else. She did fantastic on the plane both ways! I couldn't have asked for a better baby. On the other hand, the time difference and the new environment really threw her for a loop. She did not want to sleep unless it was on me, and had to have her pacifier at all times. Other than that, she was a really good little girl! We all enjoyed visiting with Josh's family. His Aunt and her kids were in from Colorado, so the whole family was there. It was very nice to spend time with them since we don't get to do it as often as we would like!

November...Fall is my favorite!

November was full of fun times and busy weekends! We celebrated Ellie's 2nd birthday with Bob and Dawn and lots of friends, decorated Emily's first Christmas tree, and celebrated our friend Jason's birthday! Emily has started turning into our little "big" girl rather than our baby. She is trying to walk, and talking like crazy! I am excited for her first Thanksgiving and Christmas, but sad that it means she is almost a year old. I was told recently that after you become a mother, your universe moves in warp speed. I am starting to think you were right Cheryl!

I like French Fries!

Emily's First Halloween

Emily's first Halloween was fun. Mom and I made her costume. She didn't much care to have it on, but it was cute while it lasted. She was such a sleepy girl when it came time to trick or treat, so we just went to a few houses. She couldn't eat the candy anyhow. I think we enjoyed it more than she did, but she sure was cute!

Daddy? It sounds like you, but it doesn't look like you!
Cutest Candy Corn EVER!

What did I get??

I think.....
