9 more days....

I just can't believe how fast a year has gone by. My mom always said "the older you get the faster it goes" and I never believed her! Man was she right! A year ago, i was getting the finishing touches on everything ready and waiting for Emma to arrive and now i almost have a toddler? How did it all happen so fast?!? She amazes me more and more every day. I can't believe how much she's learned in 1 year! For those of you who don't see Emma on a regular basis, you don't know what a STRONG personality she has. She's a good, sweet and loving girl, but man does she have a temper! If she's not getting what she wants, you know it! She's started throwing her head back and arching her back when you try to put her in her stroller or her car seat. I didn't know kids did this so young!! Sometimes I almost can't get her into her stroller by myself!!

We have a fun weekend planned. We have a class on Saturday that is all about introducing new foods to toddlers (i can't believe she's almost a toddler) and on Sunday we're meeting up with some of our August internet buddies! We can't wait!! I'll post pics as soon as i get back!

It's been a while!

It's been a while since i've updated on Emma! She's getting SO big! 11 months already? Where has the time gone? I can't believe my baby is going to be a year old soon. She had a dr. apt about 3 weeks ago and weighed 17.7lb and was 28in long. She's still a little underweight, but she is so active that the dr isn't concerned. She's so close to walking! She's cruising along the furniture and yesterday just started walking holding onto only one of our hands. Yesterday she also cute 2 more teeth! She now has 2 bottom teeth and her 2 top fangs! It looks like one of her top front teeth are coming in also so she won't look like a vampire for to long.

We had a really fun 4th of July! We went down to San Diego and took Emma to Sea world and a dodger vs Padres game! She loved it!! She was so good especially considering she had close to no naps and was up past midnight 2 nights in a row!

Here are some pictures of our 11 month old!
