First in a long line of posts...


Well, here I am--finally creating my journal that I intended on starting when Emma was first born. She is now 13 months old and I am afraid that I am going to start forgeting all of the "little" things that she does. Everyday, it seems as though she is turning into more of a little girl--and not so much a baby anymore. I find myself secretly spying on her (more times in a day than I can count)--watching her do things like pretending to feed her stuffed animals and babies, exploring her tiny toes, and simply laughing to herself. I realize that I don't want these moments to go away--Can't she just stay this age forever!? Her personality is getting more and more prominent everyday. The biggest joy of all, however, is seeing what a loving girl she has become--She is always willing to shower her mommy or daddy with kisses--Not to mention all of her stuffed animals, toys, sippy cups, etc. :)

Yesterday, we took Emma to the Moose Lodge in Lakewood--They were having their first annual fishing pond set-up for kids to fish. This was Emma's very first fishing experience. She was pretty interested in it all (she even caught 2 fish--one of them was pretty impressive!)--But as soon as the fish were out of the water, she didn't want much to do with them. Unfortunately, in all of the pictures we have of her with the fish, she was looking quite grumpy about it. When we finally were able to get her to venture out to touch the fish, her quick little fingers promptly stuck the fishy finger right in her mouth--And she didn't even seem to mind the taste! Here's pics of Emma inspecting her newly caught fish, and of the infamous fishy finger (Note: Daddy is looking pretty amused!)
