But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere. Peacemakers who sow in peace raise a harvest of righteousness. James 3:17-18
~ The verse we chose to be Emmy's life verse.
SO as I am posting it realized that it is 9.21pm on 12.5.09. Emmy's EXACT birthdate!
Time goes by so fast. I had been told that time goes by fast once you have a little one, I just didn't realize how fast. We have tried very much to be present each day with Emaline, to enjoy each phase, each season. They all have they joys and blessings. To be honest, I know that the season also have their downs, but I can't really recall what they were. The good times have over powered any negatives.
Emaline is a precious, smiley, happy, content, kind, sweet spirited little girl. We are blessed to be her parents.
Things we love about her (not exhaustive of course):
~ How she dances and sways to music....even if it just me singing a silly song to her
~ How she will select a book from the shelf and bring it to us to read
~ How excited she is about bathtime
~ How she "chases" us around the coffee table
~ How she loves to be near us
~ How she enjoys to play by herself, but most often wants to share the fun
~How wonderfully she sleeps
~How she literally gets tickled in her carseat when she pulls off her socks
~How I can tell when she is pulling off her socks because she has a different little laugh
~How she gets so excited when she see any form of an animal...especially dogs
~How she can empty my tupperware cabinet in 5 seconds flat
~ How she points to our nose when we ask where it is
~ Her little one tooth grin
~ Her beautiful big blue eyes
~Her Crazy silly hair....especially when she just wakes up
~How she talks in her crib before she is ready to get up
~ Her very silly and odd sleep positions
~How excited she gets when she hears Andrew walk through the door from work
~How excited she gets when she sees me walk through the door after I have been out
~How she cuddles when she gets sleepy
~How she can clear her bookshelf in 2 seconds flat
~ How she pushes the dining room chairs around the house
~ I love that all our glass doors have little smudges about 2 feet off the ground
~ Her Laugh
~How she likes to make me clap my hands
~ How when she is really tired, she will pull my hands to hold her little face
What? Is there something on my face?
More photos/blogging to come. I'm tired. It's been a fun filled, but long day. (especially since I drank coffee too late in the afternoon yesterday and was up till 1 am. UGH! Bedtime for this momma)

What a great blog Meg. I can't believe how fast time goes and seems to keep speeding up. I'm glad you're enjoying it so much. Kids seem to be such a joy. I am excited to start this new crazy journey. You'll have tons more new, silly, fun, and exciting things to look forward to in the next year with Emmy ;). Love you all!
I love the new age ticker by the way. Super cute!
Yay! Happy Birthday Emaline! BUT-she is one already and we've never met her! We need to figure something out!
