November 28th, 2007

Its Wednesday November 28th. I can't believe this month is already over. CRAZY!!!!
After Em and I got back from Chicago earlier this month, she immediately came down with RSV and was one sick little girl. She then passed the crudd on to Dad when he came home and now I believe I have it. Got to love having the swap around of germs and colds. Hopefully neither one of them will get it again.

We went up to my parents for Thanksgiving. It was a really nice and quiet weekend. Em and my mom got a whole day together while Rob, Dad and I went 4-wheelin. I think they had a good time. We had a good time 4wheelin. Rob would love it if I got my own, but I think I will take a pass on it. I like 4-wheelin, but I was definitely sore for a few days afterward.

Unfortunately I don't have any pictures to up load from the weekend as my camera was on the fritz and was not able to take any. But I think I may have fixed it this morning. Time will tell.

Up next is Emma's 1st birthday, and Christmas. Starting this weekend we will be busy every Saturday through the New Year. My parents are going to make the trip down for Emma's b-day party the weekend of the 15th. (we are having it early since her day is so close to Christmas) Then its back up to Missouri for Christmas. My brother from Chicago will be coming down with his fiancee and possibly my sister and her husband may make it up there. Should be in for a crowded, loud, and fun time.

We are trying to get as much family time as possible before next year, as we never know what is going to come about with Rob's job. Just wish more family would come and visit us down here. (hint...hint...) But I guess it is just not meant to be, Huh?

Hope everyone has had a good Thanksgiving.
More later......

Veteran's Day Holiday Weekend

This blog is going to take two entries as there are a few too many pics to post in one entry.
These are from our visit at Auntie Andrea's house with my childhood/adulthood friends (20+ years) and their kids.

Emma with a boa around her neck. I have no idea where or how she got this on her. But a cute pic non-the-same. Adeline Walsh - Auntie Andrea's only little princess (for now)
"Hey Mom can you pack my bottle in my suitecase when I leave for college. Thanx"
Here the boys are showing us how well they can cope in the kitchen.
Our sweet little Auggie. How he likes his hats. (check out the Walsh's blog for more of Auggie's Dapper style)

Oliver and Xavier (the twins and Emma's future boyfriends) I have to say she took a liking t both of the little cuties. She loved pulling XJ around by his cool helmet and consistantly put her head on Oliver's belly and chest. She is such a flirt.

Veteran's Day Holiday Weekend Part 2

Emma and I went up to Milwaukee Wisconsin while up North to visit her cousins, Jacqueline, Jessica and Nora. The girls were so bowled over by Emma. Although Em can walk they all wanted to carry her around. (to which Em was not really a party to)





GymRompers

I put Emma and I into a Gym Rompers class once a week in the evening so that we could have a little fun time together. She loves going and playing on the little kids gym equipment. And now that she is walking she is all over the place. The one thing I think she really enjoys is group time. She sits so nicely in the circle and sings and claps to the songs we sing as a group. Here she is showing how big she is getting by climbing up the slide.

















As you can see she is very pleased with herself.















Going through the tunnel is no problem for this little girl.
