Halloween

We just love Halloween; it may be my favorite holiday. Emma is getting into the spirit too! We haven't picked out costumes yet b/c I have been searching for a Strawberry with no luck. Any other ideas?

Baby Gym

We went to baby gym last weekend and Emma loved it. She danced all through the music circle, crawled up a wedge and chased balls. She tried to sit up on the wedge and rolled over backward. There were tears - poor berry.

Rosh Hashanah

We went to the Tot shabbat and it was really cute! The teacher sand songs, told stories and had lots of props and instruments. Emma was the only child dancing - which she does frequently to any music. She isn't allowed any honey, so here she is rolling an apple.

All my tricks

Here is a short clip of Emma doing all her best tricks: rolling, sitting up, crawling forward and backward and her favorite pose: downward dog!We are thankful that she is still slow with her crawling, but it is really fun seeing her so active now.

Photo Shoot with Sophie

Sophie is Emma's french giraffe and she took her along to a photo shoot last weekend. Here are a few of her adorable shots.

Sitting Pretty

Yesterday was a big day at our house. Emma started crawling forward (just two steps) and sat up on her own. She has been getting on her knees and rocking or pushing up on her toes for about 2 weeks. All of a sudden she has figured out how to lean back onto her bum or move her arms to go forward. We cheered - Patrick can't wait til she gets going fast so he can chase her around the house! These pictures were taken right after the big moments; she's such a big girl.
