MIA!

So, I know I haven't posted in forever! For those of you that don't know we moved to Atlanta. We are currently staying with Holly and Mike until we find a place of our own. I start my new job on May 11th at TopsOrtho. I'm going to be doing the books. This is where Holly works too. I will work from home most of the time and go into the office a day or so a week. This such a blessing to us that I get to stay home with Emily. Steve is looking for a job. He's put his application in with several police/sheriff's departments.

I've added some pictures from our first visit to the park here. Emily loved everything except the swings. She got a little scared. I LOVE to swing, so I don't know where she gets this!

I will be updating more often...I hope! :)

These Boots (shoes) Are Made For Walkin'

Emily has recently become obsessed with wearing my shoes around the house. I think she likes the way they "klip klop".

Our 1st Lesson in Potty Training...

I know she's only 15 month, but I think it's never too early to start! I don't expect her to be fully potty trained in a couple of months (even though I was at 18 months). I'm just introducing it to her a little at a time, so maybe it won't be so hard. This was our 1st lesson! :) Hopefully, she won't put the pot on her head after she uses it! I can just see it now!

She's Scarred For Life...

That's what I told my Mom after we left the mall from seeing Santa. She was fine waiting in line (FOR 45 MIN!!). We got up to the big guy and my Mom was holding her. We were talking to Santa waiting for the photographer to get ready. My Mom said she started to hold on to her really tight and I was like uh oh! We sat her down and it happened, she started screaming bloody murder! She DID NOT like the big man in the red suit with a beard! We got 2 pics and Santa said you can get her now (like hurry up! :)) As soon as I picked her up the tears turned off like a light switch! As we were waiting for the picture to be printed she was waiving "bye bye" to Santa. We think she felt bad for hurting his feelings and crying on his lap!

This is last year!! :)

What I'm Thankful For...

Emily with Aunt Dory


Aunt Dory got out Granny's old spools of thread for Emily to play with. She loved them..hmmm Christmas present??



And of course, she had to climb on everything Granny had!


She got to meet her cousin that is 2 weeks younger than her. Natalie is Steve's cousin Schade's little girl. She was so cute. It was funny to see them interact and talk to each other like they knew what they were talking about!


Crash! On the way home from Granny's.



We came back to Fayetteville to eat with my Mom. She helped my put up the Christmas tree (Emily helped too). We had a good day!

P.S. I will always remember Thanksgiving last year because Emmy laughed for the first time. That laugh is the best thing ever and makes my bad days good!

Words...

Emily is talking more and more these days. She's actually saying words that I understand instead of babbling all the time. She said "dance" today, but of course I didn't get it on video. But, I did get her saying "dog" and waiving bye bye! So adorable!

Go Hogs Go!!

Is this not the cutest shirt?! Even Steve liked it! Pretty sure the only reason was because it said "Walker" on it! I got it here!
