Emmie's 3-Month Pictures

I got Emmie's 3 month pictures this week and they turned out so cute! Her sweet disposition shines through in her pictures. She really has the sweetest personality and such a gentle spirit. She has been smiling for a while now, but really started laughing this week. She seems to smile more and more as she grows. I bought her a little play outfit at Target tonight that says "Made You Smile" on the front of it. It was perfect for her as she is such a joy to have. We just love her more than words!

Pumpkin Patch

We had such a busy Saturday this past weekend. We left early Saturday morning and went to the Down Syndrome Awareness walk downtown and walked in honor of our friends' little girl, Lily. Lily's mom and I were pregnant together with Emmie and Lily. She was born in August and they were told that she had down syndrome. They are such amazing parents and Lily is such a precious little girl! We were honored to be able to walk for her and raise money for a great cause.

Lainie jumping in the bounce house...there couldn't have been a better activity for her at the walk! :)


After the walk, we ate lunch with Brian, Paige, Maddie Grace and Hudson and then headed to Gentry's Farm. They had a huge pumpkin patch, corn maze, hayride, animals, and lots of other activities for the kids. We all had such a great time and came home with two pumpkins to decorate with. After the farm, we all went out for ice cream and then headed to Best Buy to get a computer. By the time we finished, it was dinnertime so we headed out for Mexican food. We were all exhausted by the end of the day! Thanks Follis family for hanging out with us all day! We had a great time!

Monkey's Treehouse

This week, we went with our friends to play at a place called "Monkey's Treehouse." This was the cutest little place in Nashville. It has all kinds of indoor activities for the kids to play with and on. Lainie loved it and had such a great time. It is a perfect place to take the kids on a cold or rainy day. We will definitely be going back again.

Emmie at 3 Months

Emmie had her three month pictures made last week and did so well! She was such an angel the entire time. Of course, being the solemn little thing that she is, we could not get one smile out of her the entire time. We got several sweet shots of her, but none of her smiling. Once we got home, she smiled ALL afternoon. Go figure! Here are a couple of recent pics of her. She is changing so much these days.

The first three pics are for my sweet friends, Keri and Christie! Thanks so much for the precious gown and bloomers. She wore this to Kensley's first birthday party last weekend and looked SO cute!




Here she is....all smiles after we got home from her photo session! :)



Sweet solemn girl

And here she is showing off her new trick....sitting in her bumbo seat!

Fun Day at the Park

I cannot even explain how behind I am on blogging! I have so many posts that I need to do. I will do as many as I can tonight. We ended up getting a new computer yesterday as the one we had definitely had seen better days! Hopefully, I can figure this new computer out as it is a Mac. It is VERY different from what I am used to.

While we were in North Carolina, we took Lainie to the park one day. Here are a few pictures of her and Daddy playing.






And here is a cute pic of Lainie and Grampi while we were visiting. We had such a great time seeing everyone! Thanks for such a great time!
