Training Wheels

My darling baby girl is riding her big brother's bike with training wheels! She absolutely loves it and can get around the block pretty quickly!

She is currently saving up her money for a "purple and pink big girl bike."

Pictures soon!

A new baby cousin!!

Here we are with my new nephew, Ryan!

Just shy of 6 years old...

and he is 49.5 inches tall and 55 pounds! That's the 98th percentile for height and 90th percentile for weight! We grow them tall and skinny around here!

Trying the updated Blogger

A new blog look... Emma and her cousin, Lydia, at the family Christmas party.

The big boy sitting on Santa's lap. He dislocated his thumb at school and had to wear that blue brace.

2012

2012- a great year to get back into blogging!

Why haven't I been updating the blog? I don't know. Time to change it!

This summer Emma took a dance class. She was super shy about going to the classes without me. I eventually got smart and had Jack walk her in! Worked like a charm! By the time her "performance" came around she was much more comfortable being on the stage. It was hilarious watching her up there and trying to do the moves her teachers were showing all the little girls to do. She gave me a thumbs up every time we made eye contact!

Emma was happy to have her grandparents there to watch...

I found a great Groupon so we headed to Comic Com in Chicago in August. Jack was in awe of all the superheroes! Emma had a great time too.
