New Computer... New Year...

I got a new lap top for Christmas ~ thanks Brad! It is super fast, and I love it! I plan on using the computer more so hopefully that will mean I am able to blog more and keep in touch with everyone more.

Here is a recap of Christmas Eve....

We arrived to my parents the morning of Christmas Eve. Emily Grace was so excited to be going to Mimi's. We always decorate cookies on Christmas Eve. I thought it would be best if we decorated all of the cookies while Em took her nap and then just let her decorated a couple for herself. Good plan... as she liked to sneak the sprinkles into her mouth and lick her fingers.

Em's superb decorating skills!

Here is Em ready for Christmas Eve service. She loves her black boots. I figure as long as she is dressed and ready to go and she was happy those boots were fine!

Em and me before church.

Our Family

My whole family (minus Jen's husband, Tony, who had to work late)

It's been awhile...

Sorry, I know I havent blogged in a while! I will get better! Things have been busy with Thanksgiving, Em's birthday, and now Christmas. It has all been a blast!

Yesterday, Em gave us all a scare. Her cousin was carrying her on her shoulders down the stairs and Em took a tumble! I was at the doctor's office already and the nurse came in and told me I needed to get over to the pediatrician's office because Brad was there. I was thinking, "why would Brad go to the pediatrician he's not a kid!" The nurse then told me that he was there because of Em. I got to the doctor to find Em pretty much nonresponsive and throwing up. They ran a CT scan of her head, and that came back normal ~ thank God! She seemed to be doing better through out the day, but when I got home from work she just wanted to be held and kept saying her head hurt. Poor thing!

I posted some pics from the last couple of months in the posts below... 3 new posts below.
