New Toys & Sister Time


Emma tried out the Baby Einstein exersaucer that belonged to big sister Aubrie first! She didn't know quite what to think at first as you can see from the 2 above pics, but now she loves it and spends up to 15-20 minutes at a time playing with all the fun toys on it.
This is Emma and her Poppy! Aren't they sweet together?
Here is another toy that we recently had Emma try out - the Jumperoo. Aubrie spent many hours in this thing! There were times that I thought Aubrie would jump right out of it! Emma wasn't too thrilled, but I think she will grow into it when her feet can touch the floor better and she figures out how to jump.
"You mean this thing plays music too?"

FINALLY - a picture of her smiling!
Big sis and little sis playing together! Aubrie had to make sure Emma knew what everything did! =)
Michael thinks this picture has a little too much cleavage! My mom made Kaitlyn a bunch of dress up clothes when she was around 3 & 4 and Aubrie has discovered the trunk full of dresses and accessories. She is always asking to play "dress up"!


I just love this one! I know these pictures are out of order!
Again, can't seem to get both looking at the same time, much less smiling together!
"Mom, she's choking me!"



I realized when I was taking the pics of Emma in her bed that I never posted pictures of her nursery. Mimi designed and made everything which makes it so special to us! This is the blanket that she made her and you have to look close to see her name embroidered on it. I think this may be her "security blanket". It is very soft on the side shown and silk on the other side. At first, I just wanted to use it for decoration, but decided that it didn't matter! She loves the way it feels and sleeps with it everynight!
Mom (Mimi) made the quilt on the wall and Kristi Garrett made the letters and they were a gift from the hostesses at my shower! Both just make the room look so feminine and sweet. With Aubrie, I used neutral colors that could go boy or girl, but I wanted to go ALL OUT WITH THE PINK for Emma since I knew that she would be my last and God obviously intended me to have lots of girly girls running around the house! I used to despise pink, but now I love it (I don't think I have a choice in the matter - looks like pink is going to stay for awhile)!
These tennis shoes were a baby gift from the Haroff family and this was the first time she wore them. They just made the outfit! Thanks, Haroffs!




We had fun last night hot glueing 100 DIFFERENT buttons on a hat for Kaitlyn. Today is the 100th day of school at NL and they all had to decorate a hat with "100 somethings". It was fun and she loved it. We dyed it pink too ofcourse! =)
Here is Emma with one of her favorite babysitters - Lexie!
And again with her other fav. babysitter Langdon and Uncle Mark!





No the picture is not upside down - they are! They were laughing hysterically!
Daddy and Aubrie
More giggling sisters!

I will add your blog to my google reader! Your girls are precious. I am also praising God for the good news you received about the big head! Both my kids have off the chart heads! Sometimes nurses even measure twice! I have already taken down Lauren's album. I am sorry! If you keep going back you may find some more photos of her though. I will tell her you asked about her. Don't blow away! This wind is crazy!
