I have also found I have very little time for much else in my life since I have transitioned into becoming a mother. Not to say that becoming a mother is not one of the greatest, most awesomest gifts the Lord can give us. But the past 18 months sure have been a transition to say the least. This may turn out to be quite a lengthy post but I have not updated since November.... I will list some updates and then share a little<br /><br />School- School could not be better nor more challenging this year. I have some of the greatest students in the world (but they are seasoned whiners at the very least)! So many things have changed school related this year it is insane. We have a new schedule: instead of having kids for one semseter we have them all year. So I have been so blessed to have such sweet darlings, I could not imagine a year with difficult children. We also have a new grading system which is the pits and the county realized that very early, so we will have a new one next year again! We also have these tests called CDA's that we have to administer during a window, then run through an $800,000 program that we had to learn to use. Thank goodness I am done giving mine for the year. The data is helpful, but it requires extra work on our part :)<br /><br />Home- Not much has changed at home. Jonthan and I are adjusting to parenthood and each day it gets easier, but it sure is a balance! Both of our jobs are going well. We definitely feel we have outgrown our home... but we all know that the market doesn't really care! We have started talking about projects we want to start. We definitely want to build a book case for our nook in the living room so we can put Emersyn's books some where other than a basket. We want to put up some trim/molding in Emersyn's room. I want to make some new roman shade curtains for my kitchen too! For some odd reason one of the sheers completely ripped, we think maybe Emersyn pulled on it...but they were the perfect look for our kitchen...oh well, ill add it to my sewing project list :)<br /><br />Emersyn- She is getting sooo big. I update her baby book frequently so this will be kind of a duplicate. But she changes so much every day. Her vocabulary has exploded over the last month!! I can't even keep up with all her new words because she is saying something new all the time. She especailly is repeating us, so of course we have to be mindful of what we say. Although we don't use curse words in our everyday language, we do say things like "crap" or "darn" or "dangit". I certainly don't care for her picking up those words, but I'm sure at some point it may happen. She started potty training last week and has done SO good!!! My goal is to have her trained no later than May. She has done REALLY well with tee teeing but we have not gotten her to poop in the potty yet. I have caught the poo poo look on her face a couple time but she will either go before we can get her there or she will tense up and not go. She sleeps like a champ through the night almost every night. Every once in a while she will have a hard night when she will wake up once or twice if she is congested or has a bad dream. Her personality continues to bloom and she is quite the comical little girl. I would say that every stage we have hit has had its pros and cons and while each stage gets a little bit better and more manageable, this particular stage (18mo-2yr) has been a little challenging. She has been whiney the past couple weeks and Susan has noticed as well. We are not sure if her last two teeth that she has yet to cut are bothering her or if its just a stage. She is quite the little walking tornado and that in itself can be very frustrating. It is hard work and will continue to be hard work to teach her to pick up her messes as well as to teach her she can't just throw everything where ever she wants! It is so experience her being able to call the names of those we love! She talks frequently about her grandparents as well as our adopted family the Russells!Anne Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06569521311229293272noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3322874568595179387.post-7486125440972751682011-11-16T19:12:00.000-08:002011-11-16T19:29:14.585-08:00So Out of it<div align="center">One of our cute Christmas Outfits!!</div><br /><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipAPuKlAbEMneTB4zK4RUb0sZkWEx1i_zeFSn5PIWSmHniT6_a0-sn964oo89scje2EkNu7_8a3TjIhQOe3JODbC7IEihSf8PbBbCFVJE9y8s2rsnTa0UN3-s8W0SVTh5bLJj5l4tmcJ4/s1600/SL372931.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5675801400630918930" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipAPuKlAbEMneTB4zK4RUb0sZkWEx1i_zeFSn5PIWSmHniT6_a0-sn964oo89scje2EkNu7_8a3TjIhQOe3JODbC7IEihSf8PbBbCFVJE9y8s2rsnTa0UN3-s8W0SVTh5bLJj5l4tmcJ4/s320/SL372931.JPG" /></a> A 9 Month Picture Ami took!<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjq7URHutXXdRllUIGu1K40MAGxbYwltidjcPMS1CZvSi-ihEO8uINkuveOb2KpnKi3O2m2WDg9CPTaw5zVRVNXtevOXuFmLTj2H2TgqeyoLgj0nPba20eKSH0g6Ubof0v6ErI1rM5VrOI/s1600/9+Mo+Picture.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 214px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5675801156567670786" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjq7URHutXXdRllUIGu1K40MAGxbYwltidjcPMS1CZvSi-ihEO8uINkuveOb2KpnKi3O2m2WDg9CPTaw5zVRVNXtevOXuFmLTj2H2TgqeyoLgj0nPba20eKSH0g6Ubof0v6ErI1rM5VrOI/s320/9+Mo+Picture.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div>So I am sure by now I have probably lost any followers who may have read my blog at one point. But I will try and biew this a maybe more of a journal for now. It has literally been one of the most crazy beginnings to a new school year in the 7 years I have been teaching. On top of how crazy school has been, I started a sewing business in May and started tutoring for a little extra $ in early Oct. So needless to say when do I ever have time to get on the computer. </div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div>Emersyn is growing so very fast. I look back to where we were a year ago and at this time I would have survived my first week back at school after having had our sweet girl. And now look where we are! She went from crying 24/7, although her Nana Susan swears she never cried... to running around laughing, playing, and talking! Her vocabulary is precious and the list is long and we are so proud of her. She is doing new things everyday! She is constantly giving us something to laugh about. I am learning about how hard it is to discipline and how easy it is to laugh at them. The other night she realized she could use her comfy chair to climb up on the couch, run across the couch to the other end and slide off the couch and then do it all over again. We don't really allow her to stand on the couch, but sometimes her defiance makes me laugh and Im seriously working at getting this under control, but seriously she is a good little girl. So while Im learning not to laugh at everything she does she is learning to behave appropriately. </div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div>Since I decided to start sewing to sell, I have learned I truly enjoy sewing for Emersyn and gift giving...NOT to sell. There is so much pressure in doing that, so I have wrapped up my last few orders and I am looking forward to making some cute things for my little one :) I will say, I am taking few orders from close friends and family, but other than that I'm just going to focus on spending time with my family...</div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div>Speaking of my biggest struggle has been to take care of my house! Jonathan has been an amazing help, but that does not take my desire away to take care of our home. I am so excited about having this next week so spend with my family and taking care of our home and going to the gym!!!</div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div>Well I think that sums most of the past couple months up and hopefully it wont be another 3 months before I can update :)</div><br /></div>Anne Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06569521311229293272noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3322874568595179387.post-69133930288086847952011-08-19T19:44:00.000-07:002011-08-19T20:02:38.067-07:00Hello my blogger friends...I think my blogging in the past few months has been about as non existent as my blogging the first few months of my daughters life. But I was recently told straight up by my most favorite and bestest cousin in the world that it was about time to update this thing. So much has been going on with us over the past several months and I have had very little time to do much of anything. I think there were about 5 months that I had no extracurricular activities...that didn't last long lol. Anyway our summer was great and relaxing and I absolutely LOVED spending my days with Emersyn and watching her grow and do new things. Summer break has ended and now we are in a new school year. EVERYTHING at school has changed. New students, new gradebook, new schedule, teaching a new class etc. That being said this year has started off with a bang!! We had a new high school in the co open and and therefore our school was affected. Our students are great our numbers are a lot lower than they were in years past. I have a dream sschedule. 3 honors biology classes and 3 Anatomy classes. My students are amazing!! So school is going so wonderfully. I am no longer coaching soccer so I have decided to sew. I started up my little business on facebook and etsy and it is BOOMING (praise the Lord for his goodness). It is keeping me busy with several hours of sewing a night. Ok so that pretty much catches you up to speed other than Emersyn.
<br />
<br />Emersyn is going to be 1 next Friday the 26th! I truly cannot believe that a year has flown by this fast. And to think they will only go faster. She is such a big girl with SO much personality.
<br />
<br />
<br /><ul>
<br /><li>She has a descent little vocabulary: duck, kitty, mom or mama, papa (nana Susan's husband), ta da, there it is (this is very much so all smushed into one word, but seriously she is like a sponge), down, daddy, ball, dog. </li>
<br /><li>She can tell you what a cow says, a duck says, and what a dog says. </li>
<br /><li>She can point to your nose, eyes, mouth, and feet. </li>
<br /><li>She loves to dance!!! She gets her whole body into it!!</li>
<br /><li>She loves eating and she is such a good eater. What a blessing.</li>
<br /><li>Still nursing at least once a day, sometimes twice. (It absolutely warms my heart while nursing when she stops and looks up at me and says "mamma")</li>
<br /><li>Sleeps so good at night, naps are usually once a day 1.5 to 2hrs.</li>
<br /><li>She adores her daddy, and Mrs. Susan! The only way I can coherse her to leave is by telling her we are going to see daddy.</li>
<br /><li>Loves to climb. She is constantly climbing in and out of her little rocking chair.</li>
<br /><li>She has such a sweet little heart and loves people.</li>
<br /><li>Has just recently starting crying when I leave her in the church nursery, but she has some AWESOME teachers and of course her best cousin Reagan in her class.</li></ul>
<br /><p>Anyway I will definitely be updating birthday party pictures :)</p>Anne Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06569521311229293272noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3322874568595179387.post-17274507306051145322011-06-25T20:10:00.000-07:002011-06-25T20:24:37.911-07:00Beach Fun!Emersyn had her first trip to the Beach this week and we LOVED it!!!!<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7wHlyA49WEtfWDu0Fb9H3AGsceIb0GtvePYyZoh6NBwXiM1mdrQaSg7n9uZ55nt5bhqEN17mtqje-8jKZoQME3suvYVw6lKyNX1ShATmeccRR1ArA4eM0rR6RAhlVnzMkyEzzcOczI00/s1600/SL372628.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5622361442467727970" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7wHlyA49WEtfWDu0Fb9H3AGsceIb0GtvePYyZoh6NBwXiM1mdrQaSg7n9uZ55nt5bhqEN17mtqje-8jKZoQME3suvYVw6lKyNX1ShATmeccRR1ArA4eM0rR6RAhlVnzMkyEzzcOczI00/s320/SL372628.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbaapQGKT0mM_XyFhoL3IEpC0DlIOyvBlpRHJ3B6ir66BeYIRuGjZqiJg2uacGChdVkOuAi9CFiP9rQ_1tcouHSUyVc4n0qQzx71CkSAGt7d1FRM7ml4tTJZ0PTfaoj4HyycoKp16V__k/s1600/SL372632.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5622361303438979154" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbaapQGKT0mM_XyFhoL3IEpC0DlIOyvBlpRHJ3B6ir66BeYIRuGjZqiJg2uacGChdVkOuAi9CFiP9rQ_1tcouHSUyVc4n0qQzx71CkSAGt7d1FRM7ml4tTJZ0PTfaoj4HyycoKp16V__k/s320/SL372632.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPzWxu5KIAvJwCZJxCOz5LnlWC-iXcsotZIgyBxmxZdiA2kp55K6UOz-Ycm-G404sDxUonyMse1TQPv-H1h4YwymNQoCwp1Xu7KU1aErxbMawLpARAQOELHPFKFpF1H-iYUZtuwB_n_LI/s1600/SL372640.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5622361135975662834" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPzWxu5KIAvJwCZJxCOz5LnlWC-iXcsotZIgyBxmxZdiA2kp55K6UOz-Ycm-G404sDxUonyMse1TQPv-H1h4YwymNQoCwp1Xu7KU1aErxbMawLpARAQOELHPFKFpF1H-iYUZtuwB_n_LI/s320/SL372640.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj42o0nuRHKJsF95nZQJwZ5thOvchSzk_vXzXLIRCyjCzWhhfD6JATiQwC-quz4IxqSnbyxQsTzu-D9KSaqY5Dz01ZzVrXUnGwuMdE6o5WFAO6kD8-GNxBsUp_qmx0YLtfWM_zQDBYFTyc/s1600/SL372656.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5622361000126492594" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj42o0nuRHKJsF95nZQJwZ5thOvchSzk_vXzXLIRCyjCzWhhfD6JATiQwC-quz4IxqSnbyxQsTzu-D9KSaqY5Dz01ZzVrXUnGwuMdE6o5WFAO6kD8-GNxBsUp_qmx0YLtfWM_zQDBYFTyc/s320/SL372656.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhF-6-V8upBqGzkIWkdP0NVCH1m5NuYcWs3bdr1OuYqvmhyphenhyphenTT-RqpbNg_z3qmlM6_se2kJ1UvlA2i95A9ArWnIQ1TsZtDdzE7_RSdTSYE5PBjB_d-Q2QZoLwaiLlYZFoFgWJUtNWOhWc1w/s1600/SL372661.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5622360869657391906" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhF-6-V8upBqGzkIWkdP0NVCH1m5NuYcWs3bdr1OuYqvmhyphenhyphenTT-RqpbNg_z3qmlM6_se2kJ1UvlA2i95A9ArWnIQ1TsZtDdzE7_RSdTSYE5PBjB_d-Q2QZoLwaiLlYZFoFgWJUtNWOhWc1w/s320/SL372661.JPG" /></a><br />And this is what she learned to do while we were there!<br /><br /><br /><div align="center"></div></div></div></div></div><br /><br /><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dwOO7USBAtjivF3NPFC2fgEkPgx26irqEBO-FjGOBI83DCODz_oCDTZIq2Z6jgSIsnwVc2V0PCnkUqc2FMQwA' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe>Anne Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06569521311229293272noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3322874568595179387.post-45925259097635865402011-06-02T15:44:00.001-07:002011-06-02T16:19:20.371-07:009 Months<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhyyzdXmkMStc25hHepYaQkff54pO8Q-mWLM2qntFf3jnWIX0oPaBnpmeiJAyMXTEIssCSbb4sVFl5igpH1KwKd4oX-HXk8QRATwUE_yRmY6FV4RJxf_QLXcCX7kv8ZhIILPu8BUUQHCfE/s1600/SL372464.JPG"></a>Emersyn is officially 9 months and we had her 9 month well visit the other day.

My grandmother is also an amazing seamstress and I have to give her credit too for passing on her talent! That being said, I have had so much fun sewing making things from dresses for little girls, bibs, burp cloths, onsies, pillow covers, curtains, and I hope to begin making baby bedding! </div><br /><br /><br /><div>So If you or any one you know would like some beautiful hand made gifts at a good price check out my FB page "Bella Mia"<br /></div><br /><div>Above are some things I have made recently!</div></div><br /></div>Anne Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06569521311229293272noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3322874568595179387.post-22227173086699505662011-05-06T14:55:00.000-07:002011-05-06T15:04:31.286-07:00Standing Alone!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzEMZHXDgDKO_XLjPupbr4ayOXGOTDoxjimJVHP609hYOdEfNVYoNOmcr3o58cdbSgbY-kGrBPMnUxlT0yhM4wjnbLxdCLo9WsCmhx4Shnc2A6_Pf-4JKtPeaX-p_D9EUbdYjRBiYANi0/s1600/SL372453.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzEMZHXDgDKO_XLjPupbr4ayOXGOTDoxjimJVHP609hYOdEfNVYoNOmcr3o58cdbSgbY-kGrBPMnUxlT0yhM4wjnbLxdCLo9WsCmhx4Shnc2A6_Pf-4JKtPeaX-p_D9EUbdYjRBiYANi0/s320/SL372453.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5603727367797614850" /></a><br />Our sweet girl has yet hit another milestone! Its so much fun watching her do all the new things she learns to do. She is all over the place and within the last week has started standing alone for a lengthy period of time. You can see it in her eyes that she knows she would like to go somewhere, but that she is still working out the details on how to do just that.

I LOVE that its pink! I also LOVE that her bathing suit is pink, and her bow is pink and even her sippy cup (which she just chews on for now). The past two days we have been swimming! I am so looking forward to TONS more days of fun in the sun! I love summers off and Emersyn will really be at such and enjoyable age this summer!Anne Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06569521311229293272noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3322874568595179387.post-87336243005567439312011-04-29T19:10:00.000-07:002011-04-29T19:20:49.576-07:00Life is a RollercoasterLife has been so busy lately. I thought that it would feel so much more manageable since I don't have soccer on my plate anymore, but I guess Emersyn kinda took its place. I don't say that in a bad way at all. She is such an amazing blessing!!! Anyway I say that to say that we have been so busy lately. Emersyn continues to grow like crazy and do new things all the time. She turned 8 months old on April 26th! I look back on the last 8 months and it has been amazing how so much has changed. <div><br /></div><div>Emersyn at 8 months is:</div><div><ul><li>Eating some table food and can pick puffs up and feed herself.</li><li>Still eating one to two times at night (any advice on how to get her to sleep ALL through the night would be great. We have tried all the tricks, putting her to bed later, making sure she is taking 6-8 ounces of milk before bed, etc.)</li><li>Saying 2 audible words, clap (she will clap her hands and say clap) and duck.</li><li>Crawls fast.</li><li>Pulls up on everything and cruises.</li><li>Stands without holding on to things.</li><li>"Talks" all the time.</li><li>Still does not care for the carseat, but puts up with it sometimes.</li><li>Usually takes a 2 hour morning nap and a short one in the late afternoon.</li><li>Loves books and will sit and listen to you read them.</li><li>Loves to play and explore.</li><li>Loves to be put down to explore, but still loves to be held.</li><li>Doesn't really meet a stranger. She pretty much will go to whoever.</li><li>Understands the word "no". Most times if you say no, she will look at you and stop what she is doing. </li></ul><div>We are really enjoying her at this stage and are so excited at every new thing she learns to do!</div></div>Anne Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06569521311229293272noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3322874568595179387.post-24835466619930243582011-04-15T07:34:00.000-07:002011-04-15T07:41:24.610-07:00More like mommy<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgISe2o7TqJkKS2ZeyZ3vqDJ-WNi60Gd3D0E2AHkAWpch9zhRndpqF8_h61s103wE7EDQGHnCFSIQtYZ8w-MVFSh1pRMo0xKOkRfv7maFUW4zV8-go4hCrk2pLns-H3sfLzcX1r5q0U3ts/s1600/Baby+Anne+Marie.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5595820296593721250" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 202px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgISe2o7TqJkKS2ZeyZ3vqDJ-WNi60Gd3D0E2AHkAWpch9zhRndpqF8_h61s103wE7EDQGHnCFSIQtYZ8w-MVFSh1pRMo0xKOkRfv7maFUW4zV8-go4hCrk2pLns-H3sfLzcX1r5q0U3ts/s320/Baby+Anne+Marie.jpg" border="0" /></a> <br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZ7kabaSMlXaF4dqyTiPUGyBpNeefVYduEAdnDwicJSDlyXDKo2t8wyK2hh_6ZlsdDZ9w6W1rRe9x4B_1KvlYLuickDedwhNhBQnsV215YqOSUEmCJ4-RNH39eCdEmqwW8sVTJHvcM690/s1600/Emersyn+Kate.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5595819950905339010" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZ7kabaSMlXaF4dqyTiPUGyBpNeefVYduEAdnDwicJSDlyXDKo2t8wyK2hh_6ZlsdDZ9w6W1rRe9x4B_1KvlYLuickDedwhNhBQnsV215YqOSUEmCJ4-RNH39eCdEmqwW8sVTJHvcM690/s320/Emersyn+Kate.JPG" border="0" /></a> <br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFzgXoPOHbV426JfRbbc7bTMtal1jUCoAxY_IWOFhbO75KH4NtV8Nlb3Lw2HlDJCZ1ZE2R3M16xXn8P3a2NfxgQHzGtvqJE030mhTZS_1AHiTulDDYvzYtuES3NFPMyGNC9jWT1bRuiKo/s1600/Baby+Anne+Marie.jpg"></a><br /><div>So it has been so fun to watch Emersyn change and grow. It's amazing how fast it happens. I know it happens the way it does for a reason. One of which God knew if Emersyn didn't grow out of her 24 hour crying stage, I might fall to pieces. She has grown up so much and loves to explore EVERYTHING. She is not really afraid of anything and let me tell you she adores her daddy! While Jonathan was away during spring break we were able to talk via skype and some time passed before we could skype and when we finally did and Emersyn heard Jonathan's voice and saw him she just grinned ear to ear! She loves to spend time playing with him too! They both delight in one another and it is such a gift to experience that as a mother. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Speaking of changes, I have started to notice Emersyn beginning to resemble me a bit more than she did when she was first born. Ultimately I think she is a perfect blend of Jonathan and I, but here are some pictures of me when I was a baby and I can really see a resemblance in the eyes and eyebrows!</div></div></div>Anne Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06569521311229293272noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3322874568595179387.post-90358996538428248342011-04-08T21:47:00.000-07:002011-04-08T21:59:05.659-07:00Emersyn's First Word<p>I have to say there was a time when I would hear people saying their child had starting hitting milestones like walking, crawling and talking super early. For example saying their child had starting walking at 8 months. Most times the thought that they were crazy and didnt know what they were talking about ran through my mind and then I had Emersyn Kate who has done everything on the fast track a bit like her mom and her dad! Anyway this week she had started saying clack clack and I was not sure if she was trying to say clap or quack, but I am pretty sure she is saying clap when she puts her hands together and claps and says clack clack!!!</p><br /><p></p><br /><p><br /><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dwdJPPS14FFyVZzX4cWKXV2F62pXIDsoWFPLdF_wc6hWTf8LQDDU-HMs47nNn-QLKbCNx6Y7aPPI8YgXS7C8Q' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe></p>Anne Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06569521311229293272noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3322874568595179387.post-30510395770272837942011-04-05T14:13:00.000-07:002011-04-05T19:06:55.359-07:00Plum OrganicsThings have been so crazy for the month of March. I don't think we could have had another thing thrown on top of us at school, but as I always try and look at the positive at least all is said and done with and none of it is drug out! Now that we are on spring break we have a little down time and I will try to catch up a little on blogging. Now that Emersyn has really started eating well we have tried a couple different types of organic baby foods. We originally started with Gerber organic fruits and veggies. However, Gerber seems to be VERY limited in their selection. So the other day I had picked up some Plum Organics Super Puffs. Emersyn really enjoys them and so we will stick with those as our Puffs of choice. Then we stopped back by Babies R Us and looked at what they offer for baby foods and I was amazed at the variety they offer. Plum Organics baby food is packaged in a pouch and has a top that screws off. You can attach a spoon made to use with the pouch that squeezes the food right onto the spoon, or you can squeeze the desired amount into a bowl and store the pouch for later. I love the pouch because they travel extremely well and there is no worry of spillage. The attachable spoon is super convenient and easy too! What else I LOVE about Plum Organics is the combinations of foods and variety offered: <strong>Broccoli</strong> and apple, prunes (could never find organic prunes in Gerber), Apple and carrots, <strong>Pumpkin</strong> and banana, Blueberry and pear and purple carrot, sweet potato corn and apple, <strong>spinach</strong> peas and pears, Pear and <strong>mango</strong>, Peach <strong>apricot</strong> and banana. These combos are all in their second foods. The foods I have highlighted are things I have looked for in Gerber and have not found. I get a little particular about what I feed Emersyn because I am such an aweful eater myself. I'm really trying hard to instill a love for nutritious, non processed foods in her. Of course she will get to enjoy the tastey things, but I want her to really like the healthy things so that she has the option of choosing healthy. I also have the option, but at 29, being a picky eater is a very hard habit to break. So incase you were wondering Plum Organics did not pay for this post ;) I have just fallen in love and will probably not feed Emersyn anything but (I am turning into a food snob for a good reason). Of course she is trying some table food like Mrs. Susan's famous green beans! She LOVES them!!!Anne Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06569521311229293272noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3322874568595179387.post-70122332911800493782011-03-16T18:49:00.001-07:002011-03-16T18:57:19.210-07:00So many firsts!Emersyn has been growing and changing so much lately! We fall more and more in love with the precious blessing she is to our lives everyday! I will post new pictures soon! But for a quick update here are some of the new things she is doing:<br /><ul><li>Eating organic baby foods (just about everything). Loves fruit (just like her mommy)! Loves her veggies to, we are still working on peas though!</li><li>Stood up all on her own last week, not holding on to a thing.</li><li>Is really crawling well. Crawled to me tonight and reached up (so precious)!</li><li>Is pulling up on everything she can.</li><li>Cut her first tooth today.</li></ul><p>She is changing and growing so much. She is looking more and more like a blend of me and Jonathan. I am having more and more people say she is looking more like her mamma. My mom says she reminds her a lot of me when I was little. She is recognizing when I walk out of the room and when I walk back in. She adores her daddy and loves spending time with him too. She is so much fun and we love her so much!</p>Anne Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06569521311229293272noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3322874568595179387.post-73636283907270809482011-02-23T07:28:00.000-08:002011-02-23T07:45:19.469-08:00Ami Martin Photography<div align="center"><strong>All pictures and their rights are exclusive to Ami Martin Photography, any unauthorized copying, printing, or posting is strictly prohibited.</strong></div><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJc2D3Xvu9y1hvg2DvQL03m5rhH4PNCURkZUDfwOyK3oIeyxF_j41J2bP5aAPM8puuQPK-jkTwdm0-8gS4dWpPigbevq80Uppzc_ooAdhDdVGAuuutYhoqPxscQ0tpRn3n7FLb5xTe-AU/s1600/Ami+M+1.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5576909444477454514" style="DISPLAY: block;

She checked out in perfect health praise the Lord. The winter months make me a little nervous since little ones are more prone to getting sick. For my mommy friends, about a month ago my pediatrition made me aware that Georgia has been in the red for the flu virus. Ive been trying to be careful to watch she is not putting peoples hands in her mouth or her hands in other peoples mouths since she apparently has become intrigued with doing so. She is reaching for everything and teething so she is wanting to put everything in her mouth. We still have 2 months before she can have the flu vaccine.</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Anyway she is in the 75th to 90th % for her growh at a whopping 15 lbs and 25 in. she is a growing girl!</div><br /><div></div><br /><div>Sunday she was dedicated and looked just precious! But I didn't get a picture:( But we stopped by to see our god daughters and they gave her the super cute petti skirt above!</div>Anne Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06569521311229293272noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3322874568595179387.post-78561710020712778182010-12-30T11:35:00.000-08:002010-12-30T11:39:37.856-08:00My Tutu Girly!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfObFCDP6jDImumLO7krG3MPpiGKkG72gKPkS0XMqGLiTEBFAgxdkKiQmZVvOyf5lXgKikiBiIzeHKy4-YwlQz4kfWUXy-Y0qA28dBzdwRsihVqMIOIVmUj5fgJQ8o7NcS7a166uw9Rqk/s1600/SL372118.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5556562167530988322" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfObFCDP6jDImumLO7krG3MPpiGKkG72gKPkS0XMqGLiTEBFAgxdkKiQmZVvOyf5lXgKikiBiIzeHKy4-YwlQz4kfWUXy-Y0qA28dBzdwRsihVqMIOIVmUj5fgJQ8o7NcS7a166uw9Rqk/s320/SL372118.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGp63prc6QtN7BCsdM7Kt6CnUV4Jhv-iCtbPUDFQ5gR35UQW6e907FUxgYYlC6l4aChNu4Am27oivPwiZSwhNWr6NP_LiGsF-S-egF9PuWGNro2B1GEFG8OMxIch3gpiYvznqhpFjY12A/s1600/SL372131.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5556561903262976530" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGp63prc6QtN7BCsdM7Kt6CnUV4Jhv-iCtbPUDFQ5gR35UQW6e907FUxgYYlC6l4aChNu4Am27oivPwiZSwhNWr6NP_LiGsF-S-egF9PuWGNro2B1GEFG8OMxIch3gpiYvznqhpFjY12A/s320/SL372131.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDv6fOvLcbEOVSb66mvrU6r_sUcA8ljmefkjWQT9uXzE2-b8ds_YoCEjw8zqoUKH-xziJh3gDDWhggbm4Qcoqy4kijSiYgVVMR41sjgTwEfuhffXYXBeud8WmRMyb37z5y-t8efHtbF28/s1600/SL372126.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5556561663186457362" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhDv6fOvLcbEOVSb66mvrU6r_sUcA8ljmefkjWQT9uXzE2-b8ds_YoCEjw8zqoUKH-xziJh3gDDWhggbm4Qcoqy4kijSiYgVVMR41sjgTwEfuhffXYXBeud8WmRMyb37z5y-t8efHtbF28/s320/SL372126.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div align="center">We played dress up today with our wonderful Aunt Christine!!!</div></div></div>Anne Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06569521311229293272noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3322874568595179387.post-66435024928401207812010-12-26T09:54:00.000-08:002010-12-30T11:34:36.502-08:00Happy 4 Months Emersyn Kate!<div align="center">Emersyn is 4 months old today!</div><div align="center"></div><div align="left">She is so grown up already! I can't believe how fast time has flown... I know the next 18 years will blow by. She is doing so many new things all the time! Here are her 4 month stats:</div><ul><li><div align="left">Laughing out loud at things she finds funny. Mostly people talking to her in this silly low voice.</div></li><li><div align="left">Rolling over since about a month ago.</div></li><li><div align="left">Sitting up unassisted for a couple of seconds. Up to about 30 seconds at most.</div></li><li><div align="left">Grabbing everything within her reach. </div></li><li><div align="left">Nursing about every 3 hours still except at night. Only gets up once a night to eat, twice on a "bad" night.</div></li><li><div align="left">Still taking prevacid for reflux.</div></li><li><div align="left">Still spitting up like crazy when I eat dairy products. YOu would think this would aid in weight loss for me, um not really. </div></li><li><div align="left">Loves her daddy and smiles a lot at him.</div></li><li><div align="left">Screams when we put her in her carseat, but will usually fall asleep not long after the car gets moving!</div></li><li><div align="left">Fights sleep in the car and sometimes when she goes down for a nap.</div></li><li><div align="left">Started taking 3 hour naps thanks to our favorite Mrs. Susan.</div></li><li><div align="left">Her signals are so much clearer: rubbing her eyes when she is sleepy, getting a little fussy when she is hungary. Before it just seemed like she was upset all the time and we had no clue what she wanted.</div></li><li><div align="left">Eating organic rice cereal and LOVING it! Although it has not helped her sleep any longer than she normally does.</div></li><li><div align="left">Found her feet and loves grabbing them!</div></li></ul>Anne Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06569521311229293272noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3322874568595179387.post-22128881129262989722010-12-15T07:09:00.000-08:002010-12-16T08:25:20.928-08:00Christmas SweetieWe had a little extra time before we left the house this morning to get all dressed up.

She has some super cute outfits. I'll have to take her picture in all her outfits and post them here. We are excited for her first Christmas! She is such a blessing to our lives and we are having so much fun with her. Every day is a new adventure and she is learning or doing something new every day. Quite frankly Im shocked she has not gotten right up and walked across the room yet. She seems so advanced and so ready to take on the world and seems to get frustrated when we remind her she is still a little baby. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div></div></div>Anne Mariehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06569521311229293272noreply@blogger.com1
