May long weekend at the cottage

Hi Everyone!

Just a reminder, I think you can click on any of the pics on my blog to see a bigger copy of the pictures (that way you can take in all my cuteness!!)

I survived my first long weekend up North at the cottage. Thanks to my cousins Kristin, Mark and Erik for sharing their cottage with all of us. The weather may not have been the greatest but we made the best of it and had lots of fun.



I got to watch everyone make a fool of themselves playing Rock Band, Jay even thought he could teach me how to play! My favorites are the drums and singing.


We made it outside a couple of times, to play tennis and this crazy game daddy calls nunchucks!! Mommy had to really bundle me up though and we didn't last very long... One afternoon we went into the "village" at Blue Mountain. I got to hear some music, and relax by the water fountain!! Mommy would not let me try some of her Beaver Tail though...




I really found ways to have fun inside though!! Mommy and Daddy brought my Jolly Jumper which was lots of fun. Also, my cousin Erik was always doing lots of fun things, I could watch him for hours!! I have a video to show you of him dancing to the music from Daddy's phone!


Well, we are back home now... next weekend Mommy and Daddy are taking me to Boston to see Daddy graduate!! Should be exciting, I'll be sure to take lots of pictures!! Don't forget to watch the video below!! IF the video is choppy the first time, try watching it again after it goes through once, a lot of times that fixes the problem!!

Lots of Love,
Emmie

VIDEOS!!!!

Hi again everyone!

For once it hasn't been that long since my last post!! Yay!!

As for what's been going on since my last post:
I went to the photographer to get some more pictures taken!!! (we should get copies of those soon they are pretty good!).

I also went to see my friend Easton and his mommy Rosalind!
We had fun and held hands!!


Then we fell asleep together on the couch!


Then I broke his heart and he cried!


Also, much to my dismay, mommy and daddy got a new book about how to get your baby to sleep better. Daddy calls it "baby boot camp".... You can imagine how much I like it!! But, I guess I have been in a good mood today.... hmmmmmm.... the jury is still out!

So I was thinking that it might be difficult for everyone to see how big I'm getting through just the pictures I've been posting... I got mommy and daddy to take some videos today!!!! Click on each one below and it should play for you!!!

Gotta go get ready for my trip to the cottage this weekend! I can't believe its my first long weekend already!!!

Enjoy the videos!!

Love you all and hope to see you again soon (or for the first time as the case may be)!

The first one is just me in my swing talking to the animals flying over my head...



The second one is me in my activity center and Dexter comes in to give me a surprise...



The third one is me in my activity center again, showing off how good I am at moving the blocks...




And finally, mommy and daddy took a video of me enjoying one of my favourite things, the bath!!

I'm 3 MONTH'S OLD!!!

Well, the time is just flying by. Yet again it has been a while since I have had the chance to update my blog. Mommy and Daddy have been extremely busy ever since we got back from Costa Rica. Daddy got a job in Johnson City, Tennessee, as a "Pediatrician" of all things! So needless to say, their are many things we have to get done before he starts work on July 1st.

I have had a pretty busy month of my own as well, now lets see where do I begin. I went to my first birthday party for my friend 'Cassie', she turned one on April 13th and what a party she had. Her Mommy had a fantastic party at a play gym in Oakville, I loved all the colours and watching all the big kids jump and play. Cassie looked very pretty in her birthday outfit.

My parents also decided it was time for me to get my ears pierced, that's right, pierced! The whole family went with me for moral support, even Papa made it out. I have beautiful white gold diamond earrings that sparkle, just like me. I cried just a little but forgot all about it very quickly, 10 mins after I was fast asleep. I think Mommy and Daddy found it harder than I did.


I finally got to up to Sudbury and meet my Great Granny and all my cousins. Oh what a fun time I had with them. Karsen and Raeliegh liked to play with me and show me what big kids do, I can't wait to go back and visit. I got some really nice gifts from everyone!

I have had numerous parties over the past few weeks, the first one was in Gravenhurst at Grams and Pop-Pops house. They invited all the family and a bunch of their friends, a ton of people showed up, 36 to be exact! It was great to meet everyone. I seemed to be a big hit with the kids, they all wanted to take turns holding me. I also got a whole bunch of gifts, it was great!

Then the following weekend was a "Bon Voyage" party at Lynn and Larry's house in Oakville. Even though mommy and I will be back and forth from Tennessee, daddy won't have much opportunity to come back and visit, apparently they are going to make him work really hard, at least while he is still the 'Rookie'!

I also had a wonderful day on Mother's Day, not only did I get to celebrate with the "Best Mommy ever", I had my Baptism! I am officially a member of the St.Peter's Anglican Church. I was a very good girl for the very long service and the dunking of my head in water, I didn't cry at all. I got to wear the prettiest dress and beautiful sweater that my Great Granny made for me, it was lovely. I also got introduced to my Godparents, Uncle Brodie and Auntie Carrie, I think they are going to be lots of fun. This was followed by a party at Papa and Gigi's house, where again, I got some wonderful gifts from everyone.

I want to thank everyone that I have seen/met at all my parties for the super nice gifts. I hope to see everyone again, sometime soon!

Lots of Love,
Emmie
