Rock Star!!!

Who knew that our little girl would have such amazing talent! I know that I am biased, but she can carry a tune like no other 13 month old. Just listen to Emory sing in the microphone, you will agree with me that she is fantastic. I am thinking of a daddy-daughter duet after seeing this.

Ok, so maybe she can only hit one note, but she really has that note. Thanks to uncle Ryan and aunt Jenny for the toy she plays with it all the time. Unfortunately, Emory also lets us know when she is done with her toys, like at the end of this video.

Emory is quickly becoming a little girl. Still no walking, but we are close. She still seems to little to be walking! She says dadda, momma, baby, bread, and still barks when she sees a puppy, hears a puppy or finds her puppy stuffed animal. She also knows what a monkey says and occasionally can say moo for a cow. She loves brushing her teeth and climbing on the couch. She started feeding a bottle to her baby last week and I was so impressed. We are having so much fun seeing what she learns to do.

Rocking Horse...

Grandpa Zimmerman had a special surprise for Emory this Christmas... a rocking horse he had made just for her!! I forgot that all the pictures were on my other camera. She has been having so much fun riding it and rocking it back and forth.

Just listen to the excitement!

Here are some of the recent dance moves that Emory has perfected.

Playtime...

This past week Emory and I met Kristi and Carson at a local play area. Even though Emory is not walking yet she had a blast crawling around with the big kids. Emory was a tunnel hog! She kept going back and forth, other kids would look in and she would go through it again. Poor Carson just had to sit and watch until Emory was done. Thanks for meeting us you guys!

"Is she done yet?!?"

Merry Christmas... Round Two!!

Sorry the Christmas posts have taken so long, our computer stopped working for about a week and I was not able to do anything. So even though it's mid January here is more about Christmas.
Grandpa and Grandma Zimmerman came down on New Years Eve to celebrate Christmas with us and Emory was so happy to see them (and their dog Ruby). For Christmas, aunt Jenny got a corncob hat from my parents. Out of respect for Jenny I will not put a picture of her in the hat on the blog, so here is Emmy wearing it.
Emmy helping Grandma Zimmerman do the laundry.
Grandpa and Grandma Zimmerman got Emmy an amazing wagon for Christmas. The weather was beautiful (why wouldn't it be in the 70's in December?) so we all went for a walk to the park.
Ruby and Emmy riding in the wagon together. This didn't last long! On a side note, Emmy is still barking from having Ruby here.
The neighborhood kids had a skate board ramp on the sidewalk and we thought... why not!
Thanks for everything Grandpa and Grandma Z! We had a great time and we love you!
