I'm 4 months old!

Emery turned 4 months old Dec. 4th! Her personality is definitely comin out!

She drools alot more now so maybe she will get some teeth soon.

She likes to talk to herself when you put her in front of the mirror.

She can recognize mine and eddie's faces amongst other people.

She laughs when I tickle her ribs, chest, or neck.

She likes to watch tv.

She likes to swing her arms around and then hit herself in the tummy.

She has also discovered her feet so she grabs for them alot.

...love the baby leggins in this picture

It is startin to get chilly here so we really don't go on any walks with Bella. I finally made myself decorate for Christmas even though we will not be here for Christmas! Christmas time just makes ya feel all good inside. It makes me wanna drink some hot apple cider and watch Christmas movies. I like Elf, The Santa Claus, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, The Christmas Story, The Holiday, and the famous Christmas Vacation. I love to hear Eddie laugh like a hyena when we watch that. Eddie bought the Charlie Brown Christmas movie for Emery.

I try to motivate myself to exercise but it is hard to make myself. I wish I could go to the gym here. Maybe I can strap Em into the baby backpack carrier that I have and go to the gym...just kiddin. This is what I do to work my abs...

Emery was scootin around on the floor and I was filming her and she said, "Mama"!

Thanksgiving

Emery's first Thanksgiving was in Austin, TX with our friends, Ryan and Alia Jensen, at their parents house. It was the first Thanksgiving away from our family, but we enjoyed our stay with our friends and their family. We had lots of good food! Eddie smoked a turkey this year. We love smoked turkey! This year it didn't turn out too good cause we cooked it too long and it was dried out. I cooked sweet potato casserole, crunchy squash casserole, and lima beans. We had lots of food left over. We were also introduced to Guitar Hero. Eddie loved it and it took me awhile to get the hang of it but I liked it too.

Alia found something new that Emery likes...She would dip Emery's pacifier in some ice cold water and give it to her and Em would gobble it up!

We went shopping at a big mall and Cabela's but didn't find anything worth buying. At Cabela's, there was an aquarium and we took Em in to see the fishys and she liked them. Her eyes would follow them as they swam. We also went to downtown Austin to walk the main strip. Alia's family babysat Emery while we were gone... (I missed her). It kinda reminded me of memphis with all the pubs and music playing in the streets. Then we walked a few blocks to visit the capitol building. It was a short trip but we had fun seeing are friends!

Thank you God for our family. Thank you for Emery! Thank you for our friends. Thank you God for loving us so much and for blessing us. Thank you for our wonderful life!

The End..........I'm Stuffed!!!
