7 months old

Emma is 7 months old today... I can hardly believe it was 7 months ago today that we were in the hospital in College Station, TX bringing her into the world.. she is so sweet and special! She has been doing so great lately.. she is sleeping well, eating great, chatting and moving too! She had her 1st spaghetti with Daniel's homemade sauce and loved it!! She also can go from crawling to sitting up by herself! On a sad note, she still has no teeth and it's not looking like they will be here anytime soon.. but that sure isn't slowing her down! We are so proud of our beautiful, little outside girl and her still very blue eyes.

at the park today..her shirt says Yo quiero a mi papa...I love my daddy!

Spaghetti time. YUM!

So cute in pink!

What child is this?...

Daddy, Emma, & the "spider gettin" stick
YUM!! Chocolate covered goodies!! my favorite ever... if anyone cares to know!
A Daddy's girl in the true sense... she did get my chin and dimples, though!

We had a great week. We went to "town" on Friday for champagne and wine and decided to have dinner at Applebees.. the best in town! It was packed and Emma was such a big girl in her highchair.. She dined on some lemons and liked them, kindof, at least she kept eating them!! On Saturday, Daniel watched Emma while I went to a Creative Memories party... it was fun..the consultant was showing us her albums she had scrapbooked... it was ALL of her husbands' deers he had killed, with cute stickers and everything!.. it made me laugh because at the last party I attended for scrapbooking, they are usually all pics of babies and family and flowers... so things are a little different here!!

Look up our new pics on the above Snapfish Link! We are hoping to have some visitors next weekend.. and go to the SMU / Southern Miss game next weekend!! FUN..

Gig 'em Ags!! What an awesome game.. and Roll Tide, and so sorry t.u.!!

Pooh Bear's last day

Gauge, Pooh Bear & Dixie (and puppies)
( I had a really cute pic of when he was a pup; that was before digitals and I can't find it.)

So it is a sad fall day because we had to put our 16 year old yellow lab to sleep.. He was the prettiest male dog I have ever seen (sorry Gauge) but wasn't much of a retriever.. He would do anything for food, of any kind, loved beer, and was quite the hunter of domestic animals (he killed the neighbors cat in front of the little girl, for example)! Pooh Bear smelled so bad, slobbered on everyone's pants, broke out of the yard on countless occasions and would hump anything that moved! He had hip dysplasia, seizures, and couldn't be bred... so you may think that we didn't love him, but we did.. He was the "albatross" around my dad's neck, and we never thought he would die.. but he needed to go!! He couldn't walk anymore, hardly see or hear, and at the end wasn't eating - and that was all we needed to know what we had to do!! We love you Pooh Bear and will miss you!! Thanks for all the memories!!

On a lighter, happier note: Emma's new towel.. I thought it looked too pretty and so white and fresh!!

Fall is blooming here in Louin

Dimples all around!!

We found the coolest park today and it is only 30 minutes away! Complete with big shade trees, nice walking path, swings, and a mini "town". We will definitely be remembering it for future trips.. We also had a buck in our backyard for the 2nd time.. so pretty to watch, and yummy to eat! Bow season has begun, so Daniel will be out in the wildnerness catching our dinner! The weather is great and hopefully will not go back to being so hot!
