Emory opened up Santa's gifts this Christmas morning.

Christmas Eve Night with the Family!

Christmas with the HOMUTH family... grandpa Dave and grandma Roxie had a low country boil. It was good food and great time visiting with the family. We had family up from Florida, great grandparents over and tons of cousins.

Sleeping and Shopping!

This girl was so so tired from shopping at Independence Center. We all ended up at Tim's Pizza off of 40 Hwy. Ahh! Love it! Sunday- Shawn, Emory and I got a chance to see some old friends from Texas. Miss you Elizabeth and Robert.

Christmas Picture!!!

Here is our little Emory being so good while we take her Christmas picture. We had to keep her occupied with ornaments from the tree. She is just a joy to Shawn and I. More to come....

Emory hanging out!

Today, we decorate our Christmas tree and listened to Christmas music. Emory loves Christmas ornaments and beads. Just so you know Emory loves jingle bells!!

Emory and Santa Claus!!!

While up in St. Joseph, Missouri last weekend.... Emory got a chance for the very first time to sit on Santa's lap. She was laughing and touching Santa's beard. Merry Christmas everyone!

What's UP!!!!!

This is Emory's new hat that Aunt Katie gave her. She is sporting it for all her homies!!!

Here comes December!!

Well we are now into December 1, 2008. This past weekend we celebrated Emory being 8 months old with pumpkin pie and brownies. We adventured out to the stores on black Friday.. we actually found some good deals at Kohl's... yeah for 50% off of toys! Yesterday, (Sunday) we had Shawn's family over for lunch. They got to visit with Emory. We are truely blessed with great family.

Thanksgiving Weekend with the Family!!

Shawn and my brother Nick riding to the Plaza Lights on Thanksgiving night. We all piled into the van and saw fireworks, lights and even got a chance to grab a beer. We went back to the farm and crashed from a long day of cooking, eating and laughing.

Lazy Weekend!

This past weekend Shawn, Emory and I got up and adventured out to Oak Park Mall. We got some Christmas shopping done. Emory did fantastic in her stroller and only got fussy at the bathroom while changing her. We ate at our favorite place McAlister off of Ward Parkway. Then the rest of the weekend we watched movies and cleaned our house. Emory played with most of her toys.. her favorite toy is a measuring cup right now. Who would of known!!!

Emory's new flower hat!

I bought this cute little hat from the Holiday Bazzare in the Northland this past weekend.

Good Morning!!!!
Emory was all geared up for Halloween.
Today she wore her orange/black booties and hair bow made from grandma Roxie.
Then tonight she is going to be a Tulip.
We are celebrating my dad's birthday this evening with trunk/treat and chili at a friends house.
I'll share the pictures later.
Happy Halloween Friends!

Emory stayed home today with mommy!

A day filled with crawling, sitting up, playing with toys and getting tons of naps.

Emory is getting two eye teeth in... which means nunny nose and coughing.

Grandma Roxie bought this cute little turquoise outfit for Emory.

Happy Tuesday!!!

Some Old Pictures but Goodies!!!

Picture of Emory from August on the changing table.

Sleepy Monday Night!!

Shawn shot a picture of Emory and I on the couch in the front room.

Emory has a little cough but nothing like her momma.

I found a great buy the other day. I went to the Children's Orchard to look for Emory some dresses.... oh did I find a goldmine!!! I found a beautiful black velvet/pink satin dress for church. Pictures soon to come on that darling little thing. I found many things for our special princess.

Try buying clothes at thrift store/baby thrift store... you know most of the stuff has only been worn once. Happy Tuesday!!!!

The Pumpkin Patch with Emory

Emory at the pumpkin patch! Everytime we sat her up to take a picture she would lean towards a pumpkin. So cute!

Smile Emory!!!!
