Playing catch-up.

Emlin is 4 months old. She likes to growl, for a while she was cooing but now she has advanced to growling. It's sweet. She grins lots in the morning. She always is bright-eyed and very curious. She loves sitting in her bumbo (thanks Bec!) watching me cook and clean. During bath time she kicks and kicks. If you hold her on your chest while sitting or laying she will climb up your chest. She is a tough little thing. She is sleeping in her crib now. And doing a good job of getting through the night with only minor interruptions. I usually wake up to a little baby growl in the monitor.

Em was a cute little zebra for Halloween. I don't remember what we did for halloween, it obviously was not too eventful. Em and I went with all the Ras girls to a pumpkin patch party. Scott and I thought about dressing up, we wanted to be Snoop Dogg (that's D - O- double G) and Katy Perry, we kind of have a weird obsession with them. But last minute things got busy and we never had the time. We need to be better about making time for those kinds of things.

For thanksgiving we went to Logan to spend time with Scott's fam and extended fam. We had a yummy dinner and made gingerbread houses. Emlin got lots of love from all the cousins. She did awesome, it took her a while to get used to everybody but after the first day she was a champ. We woke up one night to her cooing and she didn't stop for about an hour. She was lovin all the socializing and couldn't stop even at 4 AM.

We did some black friday shopping and went to Becca's bridal shower that weekend. I love seeing Dave and Becca together, they are getting married in two weeks and are so happy. Saturday night we got to see our beloved Bullards and then we headed home, we chatted the whole 4 hours and Em slept through all of dinner and the drive home. Poor thing was so tired. We had to wake her up the next day to get ready for church and our church doesn't start until 1:00.

I know these pictures don't have anything to do with what I've been talking about, but I can't get enough of them. And these are so much prettier than any photos I have because Geri took them.
