Watch me grow!

Our little weed, Emery Elise, has been growing faster then ever. We have been able to throw a couple "six month clothes" in with her abundance of "three month clothing". (more clothes to choose from now!! ) Emery is now rolling over, Sitting up (sometimes...) and eats quite the selection of fruits and vegetables. This would be Em sporting her first 6 month outfit a couple of days after her 5 month birthday. Happy birthday Emery!

Ottawa is getting hotter everyday which causes our little Emery to be dozier than ever. Cute...but I'm missing those bright eyes!

Once upon a time Emery wanted to stand up while looking like a gangster. We have a talented young lady on our hands.

Talented yes...but a tad bit of a drama queen. After a napless day i wrapped her up tight so she could not pull out her soother but go straight to sleep. It didn't work.

Both Emery and I agree that Levi gives the best cuddles. We have really enjoyed having Levi to ourselves every Sunday, and I'm sure Levi has enjoyed having a break from work.

This little nibbler is wonderful and i love it. I put practically anything fresh in the little net and emery just sucks it out. Her favorites have been cucumber, frozen carrots and peas, and bananas. Great for teething!

Emery is quite the social baby, and has been loving all the kids around. One of the wives here has a son that is just a couple of weeks older than Em. They have allot of fun together...sharing snacks, toys...and droll.

Emery naps the best when she knows I am close by, so i usually just plop her in her crib while i clean the bedroom. One time i gave her a package of nursing pads to play with, not expecting her to be able to break it open. Well she did, and has been one of her favorite things to do since. All that hard work put her right to sleep. She now not only can get a package open but can open them all up individually.... She has busy fingers.

Teeth are a pain. I wish Babies were born with them. Levi and i used my headband as a bandage for her toothache. It worked for the little rascals....right?

We must be having allot of fun to have time fly this quickly. I can't believe we have been here for 3 weeks. It's beautiful here and i honestly will be sad the day we leave. But on the other hand, we have discovered something important being here. Our home is not where our house is, but the place where our little family is. So for the time being...Our happy little family, has made our home here in Ottawa!
