I Scream, You Scream...

WE ALL SCREAM, FOR ICE CREAM!








Micah and I let Emma Kathryn eat a mini Ice Cream Sandwich Sunday. She loved it. It was so funny. At first she didn't really know what to do with it, thus she smashed it in her hands. Then she started trying to suck on the pieces I would give her, then she resorted to just sucking it off the tray she had smeared it all over.

(disclaimer: this is not an every day occurrence for us. We don't usually give our child chocolate or ice cream)

Security System

"Who needs a bodyguard? I've got Zeke."

Just My Size

We went to Granny and Papa Wallace's house today. Anytime we visit there we always come home with something. Today that "something" was right up Emma Kathryn's alley. Not only did she love playing with it but she also loves the juice from it. Can anyone guess what this "something" is?

Catch Up

I am a bit behind on my blogging. I have had trouble uploading images but hopefully it is fixed now.


Since my last post, Emma Kathryn has turned 5 months old. I can't believe it. She has really changed lately. She finally has her own personality.


A few stats:
-She laughs all of the time
-She is sleeping in her own bed, praise God
-She still wakes up for a feeding each night but goes right back to sleep
-She weighs about 14 lb, 2 oz (that's us weighing her at home)
-She is still wearing mostly 3 mo clothes but some 3-6
-She is in a size 2 diaper and a size 1 shoe (big feet, I know)
-She is always happy in the morning when she wakes up
-She has become the queen of cat naps
-She fights sleep like a true warrior, but Mom always wins :-)
-She loves bath time, I have to have a bath cloth for me and one for her or
she takes mine
-She still hates her car seat
-She loves being outside, she doesn't care that it is over 100 degrees
-She has discovered Zeke and wants to get her hands on her so bad but he moves around to much and she isn't fast enough
-She still loves to ride the golf cart
-She got her toes painted for the first time (compliments of Aunt Christi N)
-She will not lay on her back at all. She immediately flips to her belly.
-She is loving baby food, We have tried: sweet potatoes, squash, peas, bananas, apples, peaches, and pears. She loves it all.

It is heartbreaking to watch your baby grow up so quickly. I was so thankful when she reached 3 mo old (finally the end of colic) but now I am ready for her to slow down!!
