Christmas 2008!!

What a wonderful Christmas we had! Emercyn got to spend time at both grandparent's houses, which she very much enjoyed!! Here's just a glimpse of our great time together!!

Christmas Party!!!

Emercyn and I had a little Christmas party with some of our friends. I've become great friends with 3 ladies (Heather, Sarah, and Melisa) who also have little girls. They are all very close in age with Emercyn, and she LOVES playing with them! We got them together to decorate cookies and a gingerbread snowman, and to exchange Christmas ornaments. We had SO MUCH FUN!

Santa is SCARY......to Miss E, that is!

Well, this was our second try with Santa this year. This is the best picture we've got. Notice the rubber ducky in her hand? The photographer was using it to try to get her to smile, and he even let her hold it thinking it would calm her down. Poor guy! He sure was trying! Oh well!! This will be a memory that I'm sure will be fun to look back on!

Jason and I both were in the picture last year, so this is an improvement! ;)

Date Night!!

Mommy and Daddy decided they needed a date night! :) We went to Mickey Mantle's Steakhouse in Bricktown (yummy) and then watched the movie "Twilight"! This is my new FAVORITE movie! I absolutely loved every second of it! I can't wait to see it again!!! I haven't read the books yet, but after seeing the movie I'm dying to start reading the series. My sister has them and is loaning them to me......can't wait!

We had a great date night!! Can't wait to go again!!



An updated belly shot! I'm 20.5 weeks!

Playing with Daddy!

Playing outside in the leaves!








Daddy built me a house! I LOVE my house! It's so much fun!!

Hide and Seek!

This is Miss E's favorite new game. I play it with her at least once a day, if not more. She LOVES to be the person that counts and then finds the hider. She counts (sometimes to 5, sometimes to 10, sometimes to 2!), and then says "ready or not, here I come"! When she "finds" me or Jason, she gets so excited. "I found you! I found you!" And then she runs back to her little spot to start counting.

I've gotta teach her a new game!! :)

O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree!

I LOVE Christmas! Jason and I put our tree up a little early this year (the week before Thanksgiving). I was worried E would mess with it and it would be a constant headache, but I was wrong! I explained once that she can look, but not touch. She "pretends" to hug it every once in a while, and sometimes I'll catch her blowing it kisses.....but other than that, she hasn't really even cared that it's there! Now, when I get our gifts under the tree....that may be a different story!

Looper Family Pic! :)

We took a family picture for our church's new directory. It turned out pretty good! Emercyn thought the photographer was pretty funny, so it made for some great pictures!


*The silver dress is her Christmas dress, by the way! Pretty cute, huh?
