Christmas 2008

We had a wonderful Christmas! Emma loved opening gifts! She would say "ohhh" as she saw packages come her way! Needless to say, Emma had plenty to open. New clothes, new toys, new books...now I'm asking for some new storage! Here are some pictures of our long weekend!

The Zinser Family

The Weatherwax Family I love opening presents!

Emma's bouncing pony - she actually got one from each of her aunts! Great minds think alike!

Hailey and Emma in their new big girl chairs!

Another Christmas tradition includes having some of my HS friends over on Christmas night. The best gift that John and I could have ever asked for!

Building confidence!

Emma has been practicing taking a few steps since early October. In the past few weeks, she's really started to take off. So now her movement repertoire includes scooting, crawling and now walking! She's getting pretty good at turning corners, although she still resembles a drunken sailor at times!

We hope everyone has safe and blessed holiday! Merry Christmas!

No No No...Ho Ho Ho!!!

Emma is a very happy girl. Not many things make her cry...hunger, extreme fatigue, and now Santa! We headed to the school's holiday open house and Santa was there. As we were approaching him, she was waving, smiling, and saying "ho ho ho." But as soon as we got within 3 feet - watch out - she was terrified. We snapped a quick picture, and went on our merry way.

Maybe next year?
