Riding in Mommy's pouch

I got this peanut shell to hold Emi in when she was just a little peanut! It's still suppose to hold her for a little while longer in a different position but she really doesn't want to be stuck to me for too long now a days...but at least she snuggled with me long enough for this picture :)

Laced fingers

Emi's fingers were laced up and she was ready for a nice little nap and I mean litttle, I should have put her down in the swing like usual :)


Sorry the pictures are a little dark, didn't want to use the flash while she was sleeping.

Meetup Playgroup

Emi had fun playing at the last playgroup for a while at the Redmond Town Center. We had fun seeing how big our friends have grown and all the new tricks everyone has learned! Emi was rolling around and Sabrina was sharing with Emi. They are two sweet girls!




Emi, Auntie Joyce and Sabrina

Here, one's for you!

Bubble time!

Thanks Grandpa!

Mommy, Grandma, and Auntie Natalie all went to a hot yoga class and left Grandpa and me home to play! I always have fun with my Grandpa he is so silly! Here are the pictures we took while Mommy was gone.






Thanks for watching me Grandpa, I love you!

Monday morning!

Let me see...

Coupons make Emi happy!

She's really studying it...

I need to find my calculator!

...and calculating!

Emi: Mommy what do we need to get at Babies r Us?
Mommy: Baby gates, you are going to be crawling any day!
Emi: Mommy do you know what Daddy is going to say when you tell him you want to get these baby gates?
Daddy: We don't need to baby proof, don't you know we're in a recession!
Emi: Daddy is always on my side :)

Sunday Walk in the Sunshine!

It was a perfect day for a walk! We got Emi bundled up and headed for the park past the school in our neighborhood. I always tell Erich that I want a picture of the mountains from the beginning of the neighborhood...so I took some...but on my way out of the neighborhood a few hours later, when I didn't have my camera, the view changed it and was breath taking! So posting the pictures of the mountains from the early afternoon walk would not do them justice...so we will have to get out for an evening walk with the camera to show everyone what I mean!

I'm so glad we have our shades on Mommy!

Are we there yet Daddy?

We had so much fun at the park! Emi rode on the tire swing for the first time and went down the slide! She really liked the slide!

Grammie and Grandpa came to visit me too!

Sooooo sleeeeepy!

This is so funny, Emi was keeping us company while we ate lunch and the next thing you know she's falling asleep!


Sleepy baby!

Pot pie dinner night!

I felt like we haven't seen each other in a long time! Here are all the kids!

Auntie Jaime and Emi!

We had a fun dinner at the Mallamo's! Jaime and I were trying a pot pie recipe together...we each made a pie...


then took pictures and relaxed while we waited for it to bake up

...yum! We forgot the egg wash, so they were a little matte looking and they didn't turn out as saucey as we would have liked but we will try them again with some modifications! It was so much fun cooking together, thanks for sharing your kitchen with me!

Shopping!

I took Emi to the Bellevue Square on Friday since it was going to be a rainy day. We ate lunch and watched kids play at the Kids' Cove on the 3rd floor (Emi is too small to play with the big kids but she really loves people watching), then Emi took a nap and I was able to browse around.


Emi is a good little shopper, she loves to look in the mirror too!

Then we came home and she tore up this magazine that I was done reading.

Sawing logs

Emi was super sleepy after lunch, if you listen closely you can hear her snoring!

Random pictures from and uneventful Wednedsay

Emi playing with a calculator in the bonus room. Emi,"I better figure out how to work this, taxes are due soon!"

All bundled up and ready to go for a walk!

I love the view of the mountains from our neighborhood. One day I will have to walk all the way out near the entrance to capture a different view.

Emi and Daddy...looking for a snack!

Close ups

Emi is such a pretty baby!



This little girl just melts our hearts!

books!

Emi loves books! She has quite the collection already, her latest favorites are the touch and feel board books of animals.
