Houston, We Have Crawler!

WARNING!!! Pick up your valuables! Emma is mobile! Emma knows there has to be a way to get to that

remote!

Look at Emma go!

Emma was quite pleased with herself and so were we!

Thank goodness Marcus got the whole thing on video.

Emma can finally get to the elusive remote. I guess

she doesn't want to watch the Food Network anymore.

Crawling was the answer!

Grandma was excited too!

Eating with Emma

Marcus was so excited to feed Emma his favorite vegetable,

spinach. As the following pictures show, we're not sure it's

going to be one of Emma's favorites anytime soon.

Emma's exact words were, "What was that?!"

I promise Emma was not harmed in the eating of the

spinach. She got some on her hand and then decided to

rub her eyes. We think she was trying to tell us she would

rather take a nap than eat more spinach.

After washing the spinach off of her face,
Emma decided she would go through the Publix Wednesday ad

and pick out something she might like more than spinach.

Emma's New Talents

Cousin Rachel gets a wave and a thank you for

the cute dancing heart shirt. Emma is even showing

off her bottom teeth in this shot!

Emma has replaced the "shaking her head no" phase for

the clapping phase. Everything and everyone deserves a clap!

Emma Gets What She Wants

Even though Emma can't crawl yet, she is

able to get what she wants...and on this

particular day, she wants some of the toys

out of her toy basket.

Where there's a will, there's a way! Crawling is just around

the corner!

Fun with Bananas

Thanks to Gran's friend Becky Smith, Emma got to

experience banana's sucked through mesh.

Even though something yummy came out of this contraption,

Emma's still not sure what to think about it.

Once she got the hang of it, Emma enjoyed sucking the life out of that poor banana.

Now that she's done, how do we clean this thing?

Any suggestions? I washed it by hand and then ran it

through the dishwasher and there is still banana stuck in it.

This is the "Memama Pink Cake" that I took to Mops this morning.

It was very well received and I think Memama would have approved the change

in shape for this occasion. I promise to continue the Christmas tradition of the

"pink cake." I'm sure that is one of the unwritten rules of being a Susan, Susie or Sue.

F.Y.I. Marcus would like to report that the cake looked

better in person and tasted better than it looks in this picture.

Emma is all ready to go to Mops! The big bib certainly comes in handy with all the drool she's been producing lately!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Emma is modeling a "Bee Mine" t-shirt she
got as an early Valentine present from Grandma and Grandpa. More pictures to come!

We Are Back!

Emma is getting over her teething runny nose and Marcus and I are both on the mend from our colds. Sorry we haven't updated Emma's page but catching up on our sleep was priority #1. I promise more pictures soon!
