17 Month Videos

Emma has been such a joy.... she's growing so fast and doing so many cute things on her own! The first video is of her putting her teddy bear to bed. She did it before, and we just cued her to do certain things. Bedtime is much easier now, btw.... we read our story, say our prayers, sing a song, and she goes into the crib. No crying, no whining. She's asleep within 10-15 minutes. She still wakes up about 2 times a night on average though. (we're nursing once before bed and once when she wakes up for good in the morning).



This is a really sweet video of her "walking" in Daddy's shoes. She actually put her feet in them all by herself and walked all this way on her own. She's done it several times since and just gets a kick out of how big Daddy's shes are!

I Have Mint

Or rather, Emma does. We have an over-abundance of it (if any of our Columbus friends would like some, please just let me know).



Someone tell my baby it's NOT ok that she'll be 17 months old tomorrow. :(

Precious Moments

Is It May Already?

Not really sure where the time is going, but in 15 days, Emma will be 17 months old. What?! No way. Not my baby. Not that old already!

These were our hands in January of 2010, when she was just a month old.



Here are our hands again on April 30th, when she was 16 months and 6 days old.



Such a difference. Such a fast-growing little girl. I love her so much!

Thank you to Cousin Debbie, Momma Maurine, Grandma & Grandpa Lewis, and Ms. Steph for the wonderful, special gifts all of you sent. You are all so sweet!!
