For the past couple of weeks, I have had the ultimate pleasure of having Miss Emily all to myself. We have become closer than close. Inseparable, in fact! I wouldn't trade these moments for anything~ I am one lucky momma!

Zoey's First Day of Kindergarten!
Here's cutie-patootie's desk for kindergarten! We took her to her orientation the evening before school began!! Isn't she the sweetest? I can't believe she's in kindergarten already! :)
Emily's First Zoo Trip~
Emily, Daddy & I had so much fun at the zoo!! Emily's eyes were so wide taking in all of the sights and sounds of new animals! And she loved the train ride!!! :)
A day with Uncle Jacob!
Emily and I had the pleasure of spending an entire day with my sweetest little brother, Emily's Uncle Jacob! We had such a fun day exploring the Children's Museum, running around the Washington Park playground and having the best Snow Kone's ever at the Washington Park Rose Garden. I wish we could spend this kind of time every weekend with him!
We love you Uncle Jacob, and miss you already!! :)

Firsts!
It never ceases to amaze me about her first year of life! How much she is learning, how much she is growing.....
She got her first little toothie last Saturday.... the cutest little toothie I have ever seen!! :) (I have yet to get a picture of it!)
Today at Erin's house she stood up, straight from the ground up, several times!! She's ready to walk, it's right around the corner!!!
She's talking more and more every day... until "ma-ma" is a little easier to say, I've become "ra-ra". Which is okay with me, she's trying!!
She has become very bored with baby food and baby cereal. She prefers feeding herself now, and she's such a good little eater!!
This stage is so fun! We are learning and growing so much every day together - I am so lucky to be here with her~ I cherish every moment that we have together, she'll be 18 before I know it ;)

I have learned what "true love" truly is. True Love is being a Mommy.
It is the tears in your eyes watching her sleep and knowing she truly is an angel
It is the unstoppable feeling of amazement that she really is yours!
It is the look in her eyes and the smile on her face looking at momma waking up in the morningIt is the best slobbery kiss you'll ever have
It is the feeling of utter heartbreak to see her cryIt is talking about her nonstop, even on a special date alone with Daddy
It is adoring chubby thighs & fingers and dimply knees & elbows
It is feeling like it has been forever since you have seen her and you miss her already, after just an hour nap
It is sobbing just thinking about her growing up
It is knowing that you'll always love her no matter what
It is the deep happiness you feel just looking at her smile
It is the feeling that you can't believe she'll be one in less than 4 months, yet you can't imagine what your life was like without her
It is real, and it is forever unconditional
I have a love that is so pure, so real and so beautiful
I love you, Emily Jane, and that is forever~

Yeah for Britax!!!
After our accident, our pediatrician informed us that our infant seat was no longer safe. This is information I had not previously known! So the researching, comparing and shopping began. After reading and reading some more, we found that Britax has the safest car seats with the all-around best ratings. With the insurance company paying for our new car seat, the choice was easy! Now we just had to choose which model, and heaven-forbid, which fabric! We chose the top model and simple, basic fabric, just in case Emily ever has a little brother. (Don't tell Daddy I said that!)
I feel so good about having our little sweetie safe and sound in our car. And not just safe, that seat looks comfy!! Bonus for Emily!
