Whoop! Gotta love Fighting Texas Aggie Tennis!!



Saturday Mom, Emma & I took a day trip to College Station to see Daniel compete for A&M in the ITA Tournament. He played exceptionally well despite a back injury, GO DANIEL! Emma loved seeing her Uncle Daniel play, she was waving to him and pointing and saying "Uh-Oh"! It was a long day, but well worth it. We were able to stop in and see Rachel, Sherman, Clowey, Ryan, Tyler, James and June and Mom got to spend some time with them as well! Good day! Here are some pics of Big D!! :) Love you brother!!!

State Fair of Texas 2010


This was Emma's 2nd time to the Fair, but the first outside the womb! :) She enjoyed all the animals, and of course watching all the people. She did have a run-in with an ostrich, I guess he thought she was a yummy snack, Emma started crying she was so scared, but Grandpa was there to comfort her and show her a new animal! She also loved the bird show, pointing at them as they flew by. It was a great day with the family! Here are some pics of our grand adventure!

A Day at the Dallas Aquarium



My dear friends Nikki & Story, Yetunde and Stephanie & Connor joined Emma and I for a day at the Dallas Aquarium. It could have been a bit challenging, but our kids were excellent and it was a great day! If you ever get a chance to go, I would highly recommend a day at the aquarium. Here are pics of our fun-filled day!!

1st Birthday Party



Emma's first birthday party has come and gone. I'm exhausted!!! :) I decided to take on the task of making personalized party favors and making Emma's cakes. Fun! The day was amazing! Nanni & Aubbi and Auntie Rachel traveled up and helped immensely and Grandma & Grandpa opened their home once again for an incredible time of celebration. We had a great turn out from our community and Emma did so well opening her gifts and she pretty much devoured her cake! Here are some pics of the fun day! THANK YOU everyone who came out and supported our little girl. I know our family and Community are a vital part of Emma's life. We love you all!!

11 Months



Well 11 months have come and almost gone and I have yet to post! Emma is steadily crawling, she will stand free from holding anything and go up and down.  She will take steps holding on to something, not quite ready to let go yet, but getting closer. She has also learned how to say "please" and "all done" in sign language, so communication is getting there. She also can wave goodbye. I spend most of my days watching my step as Emma is constantly underfoot. And with the addition of her 4 teeth, eating solids has become an all new adventure. So, now we're gearing up for her 1st Birthday!! Can't believe it's here already.

Here are some recent pics.
