Emma's friends

We have had a great couple of weekends spite the weather outside. Last weekend one of my best friends, Kasondra and her family came up to visit. The girls had fun playing together. We even got to play rockband for a little while even though it was challenging with a 22 month old and 6 month old. This weekend we celebrated one of my other best friends birthday by all of us going to dinner and then back to the house to visit and let the kids play. Colton screamed the whole way to our house saying I coming Emma, I coming. lol. We had fun just watching them. He would kiss Em and she would put her hand on his leg. As you can see from some of the pics that I've been working in photoshop and had to put them up. The one of Emma in the sink was her first sink bubble bath and she loved it. She is such a big girl. She is now riding in a cart without her carrier and sitting in a high chair at the restaurants. That is just a little of what has been going on in our lives the last couple of weeks. Hope everyone has a wonderful Memorial Day.

Mother's Day 2009

My cousin Melina her daughter Leah, myself and Emma
                               My two favorite women, Mom and Emma

                              I will treasure this picture forever. 

I wanted to wish all the mommies and mommies to be a Happy Mother's Day. My hubby, daughter and fur daughter have made my first Mother's Day so special. I received a beautiful heart shaped necklace with a saying on the back about mothers and a couple of cds, dvd, and a book that I had read about. Yesterday my mom surprised me and we went to get our hair done. I was so excited because I had been talking about going and getting it cut then Bryan and I went on a date yesterday afternoon. I want to thank my mother in law for giving me the wonderful husband that I have and tell her how much we love her. I also want to wish my sister in laws a wonderful day and look forward to spending time with them this summer on the family vacation. To my mom, I love you from the bottom of my heart and now understand all the things you tried explaining when I was growing up. You are wonderful woman that has endured alot and couldn't ask for a better mom. 

6 month checkup

Emma went today for her scheduled 6 month check up. She is measuring 26 1/4 inches long and weighs 16.13 pounds. She is just a long chunky monkey. We weren't able to start her series of 6 month shots because her oxygen level was measuring in the 50s and this was a concern of distress. The nurse came in and checked her like 3 times and then brought Dr. Ray in to check her. We ended up doing a breathing treatment in the office and that seemed to help so we are now going to be doing them at home every 4 hours. We will go back next week for her 6 month physical if she checks out ok then. 

Here is a list of Emma's milestones:

She is rolling over from tummy to back

She can get her toes in her mouth now

She is able to sit up by herself for a couple of seconds but we are waiting any day for her to do this with no problems

She loves standing up 

She loves to play in the exersaucer and spin around

She is able to follow us around and responds to sound

She is starting to say MaMa

She is grasping onto Lilly and laughing at her

Is eating baby food now and loves it.

Loves going for walks with mommy and daddy

And WE HAVE 2 TEETH!

We hope everyone has a great week and a wonderful Mother's Day!
