Weekend of Fun





Mommy and I went to Brighton to visit Grandma. We also went to my Aunt Kristin's house. She lives on a lake. It was so much fun. I got to go swimming and take my first boat ride. Here are some pictures of our adventure.

Sweet Sixteen!


Sixteen months, that is!
Weight: 18 lbs 10 oz.— -5%-tile (not a typo, Emily has lost weight due to her high activity)
Height: 30-3/4 inches — 50%-tile
Teeth: only 7
New obsessions: Kittys. Baby dolls. And did I mention Kittys... Emily loves to play with her "baby", she gives baby a bottle and makes sure her socks are on and even puts her "night-night" on the blanket (that must be perfectly spread out on the floor, and she gets upset if she can't do it herself). If she is not playing with Baby she is loving on "May-May" (Maiden). "meow, meow, meow" is a word we hear constantly. Emily is definitely from our genes, she loves to be outside.
New words: Too many to list.
"I Can't Believe It": Emily tells us when she has gone potty. I never thought I'd hear the word "poopoo" at 16 months old. And in case you were wondering...NO I am not going to start potty-training.
Hemangioma update: On June 30, we had another treatment, they did steroids and lasers this time. Her nose is looking so much better.. We hope it stops growing soon. The average age is 18 months for it to stop. We have another treatment scheduled for October 1.

On a hot day...


...too hot!

Fireworks!!!




Mommy and Dad took me to see the Mt. Clemens fireworks. It was great. I was so good and sat and watched them. (Mom's note: notice in the pics that she is in different spots for the 15 minutes of fireworks..my child can not sit still even if she is entertained.)

So tired...


Mom kept me really busy one weekend. Poppa Cal passed away and we spent a lot of time at GeeGee's house. I had so much fun while we were there that I fell asleep on the way home everyday.

Grama Jan came for a visit



And my new friend Nicole.

Niesen Family came to town.



Lauren and Jackson came to visit with me while they were in town.
