For my 9 month birthday I got to go to the zoo -- I was so happy I smiled big and showed all 6 teeth!

Dad did all the hard work, pushing me through the zoo.

The camel was my favorite - he lifted his head up and showed me his big mouthful of hay.

Time to go home, darn.

I had fun at the zoo today -- thanks mom and dad!

Look at my spiky hair!!

This is my cute orange butterfly outfit!

Here I am in front of the brand new pond my dad put in, it has 12 fish in it - how cool!

Look at this new toy I have - this is a great tunnel to play with.

Don't I look so grown up?

I love to pick at these purple flowers.

Can I have this, it looks good!!

Eating all that food sure made me tired.

Here is the corn on June 6th, it is already knee high.

Dustin Drew was born today!!  He is my cousin - can't wait until he gets bigger so we can play.

This pizza sure is good.

Look I can drink from a sippy cup all by myself.

Aunt Mary and I go out the the barn to see the goats all the time.

Here I am with my new learning  tools...

Watch out fathead - I'm trying to see that big tractor driving by.

My first pool - hey, where is the water?

This is much better, I love to splash and play in my pool.

I had a great time at the Greek festival, the cookie I had was really good.

My favorite restaurant  --  McDonalds - I like hamburger bun, apples, grapes, yogurt, chicken nuggets.....

Happy Father's Day Daddy!!

Look how happy and proud we both are!!

Emma on her feet - soon she will be standing.

Emma has been crawling for a few months now - but here is a real good shot of her in action and resting.

Let's go - I want to go for a walk.

Emma playing with Dustin Jacob, Sarah's son - not her cousin that was born a few weeks ago, at Grace's 5th birthday party.

This slide is really cool -- whee!

We had fun at Grace's party!

Dustin's uncle pulled us around the yard a million times in this wagon - what fun!

Belle lets me ride her like a horse, I can't wait for mom to let go so we can run like the wind.

Happy Baby!

Emma stood up all by her self today - 5 days before she turns 10 months.  She quickly proceeded to sit (fall) down on her butt.

More standing!!

The tiger lilies finally bloomed, aren't they pretty?

10 month old today -- I got to have a cone at Culvers - NUM NUM

Mom and dad had a garage sale and didn't know what to do with me - they were amazed that I would play in my pack-n-play for hours.  Why did they think they called it a pack-n-play??

Emma, Aaron, and Belle - she sure has gotten big.

Emma loves cousin Alex's Spiderman couch.

Emma reading at the hotel in Hillsdale - getting ready for the goat show the next day.

Good morning -- I can't wait to get to the goat show!

All dressed and ready to go!  Too bad mom didn't take any pics of me at the show....

Emma and her friend Breanna - they had lots of funning playing.

Emma decided she could climb up the stairs or at least look like she was going to try -- it would be a few more months before she climbs them and on Sept 28th she snuck away and climbed to the top all by herself....

Tango had triplets and here is Aaron showing Emma one of them - Dusty.

Daddy took me for a ride on the tractor.

Yum Yum corn on the cob - Emma just picked up the whole ear and started eating away.

Oops - the gold fish got out of the bag.....

Here is Emma and all three of Tango's triplets - Dusty, Stretch, and Squeeze.

Emma really enjoys going for a walk every night.

More ice cream cones - this one a Chocolate dipped from McDonalds.

Learning to walk is hard work - squatting, falling and standing.....

Me and my Grandma Dianne -- what a cool hat I am wearing.

Look at these pretty flowers at Grandma Dianne's house.

Emma's reading again -- look it cats!!

Emma finally learned how to use her dino toy all on her own.

Emma in front of our beautiful pond.

Emma likes to climb up on the fireplace hearth.

11 months old today -- only one more month till my party.

Emma likes to pose for the camera - can you tell?

More posing.....

Where's Emma, Where's Emma - there she is -- Emma learned how to play peek-a-poo with anything she can find. 

Theresa and Emma in front of the beautiful pond.

Emma's early birthday present - a wagon!!

Emma and Dustin at the Genesee county fair.

Emma, Dustin, and Naomi all enjoyed the wagon rides at the fair.

I'm ready to go - lets go shopping.

It's reading time on my favorite couch!!

All dressed and ready to go - more shopping I'm sure!!

Emma really enjoys her books - she loves playing with them.

Oh no - she found the pan cupboard - look she even can fit inside.

Our cats, Payton and Forrest, used to fight over who got to sit in the laptop bag - now there is no competition - it's Emma's!!

12 months old - HAPPY BIRTHDAY -- Grandma Luann made my favorite meal - Goulash!!

Then we had a cool ducky cake - get ready to help me blow out the candles.

Aren't I cute with my cake - can you believe I didn't squish it?

Happy Birthday to Emma ....

Now I'm squishing it - this is a good cake - thanks Grandma Luann.

Opening presents from mom and dad -- they snuck theirs in before my party next weekend -- I got a firetruck (in this paper), .

a shopping cart,

and a Dora chair -- COOL
