Pumpkin Patch 10-24-09

Well Saturday was the first day off for Daddy with no plans, so we decided to make a trip to the Pumpkin Patch on Sauvie's Island. I am really glad we made the trip. It was a nice fall day. Sun and all. We took a hayride down to the pumpkin patch, after seeing the barn animals, Where Emma was extremely excited about the mini pony and the ducks. The hayride on the other hand was not that entertaining for her, until the ride back, we held her up so she could stand-up on her own, she loved it. She loves her pumpkins but she loves the Churro Nuggets best. Lol.
On the drive home, Shane and I decided that we are going to hold onto the children's traditions of holidays and what not, until Emma decides she is too big.

EMMA'S CHECK UP

EMMA had her check up today she weighs 21.14 and is 29.5 inches long. Nothing big to report other then she is spot on where she should be. She had blood drawn today...and hated it! big shocker. And had her H1N1 shot...thats all there is Ill post some pictures from the time we were waiting on the doc, but right now it is late and Emma needs to go to bed.

Damn it all to hell

My Emma Bug gave herself by a black eye. She was unstable on her legs and fell and bumped her eye on the table, and her poor little perfect face is very disfigured. Makes momy sad.

Milestone for Emma

Emma got her ears pierced today with her Auntie M. it was so sad, and so cute she got a lollipop actually her first and that was the cute part, as well as her little earlobes with those cute little colorful daisies in sparkling in them. My little girl is getting so big and in a way that saddens me, and then again it excites me, I look forward to all the things I can teach her, that we can experience together, all the things I get to witness her do, her growth, and her problems I will fix, or make better...and yet we are right back to being scared...wondering if I will get it just right? Will I be good enough? I know as a first time mother this is expected...but it seems like such a suffocating feeling to doubt my ability as a mother, as her mother.

I knew it!

Well Emma finally broke her 1st tooth last month, today I discovered a second tooth broke through today. Could have been the reason she did not sleep for the last 3 days, hopefully we should sleep tonight. As soon as I can get a picture of the little bugger I will post it.

A week without Daddy.

Well Daddy left us last night. He is out there trying to hunt in this cold weather, and we miss him already. Emma refused to sleep last night. And she is now being a holy terror, which is why I broke down and confined her to baby jail. I need a moment where I am not chasing her to keep her out of something, or digging something out of her mouth. But I doubt I will get a quiet moment while daddy is gone. I hope the rest of the week is not like this, I might go insane. I hope he gets his deer early, and comes home quickly. DADDY WE MISS YOU, I MISS YOU!

Emma's growth.

Well Emma is getting to be a very big girl now. She pulls herself up on things and will walk around anything she can. She isn't quite walking on her own yet, but we are almost there. And she snacks on most of what we eat. She loves spaghetti, ice cream, cheerios, Nilla cookies, homemade peanut butter cookies, she is like a little bird in that aspect. She comes to you with her mouth open. It's really cute. She is getting quite the personality on her.

August, September, & the beginning of October.

Sorry it has been a while, alot has gone on. In August, there was a big move. We moved from our old crappy apartment to a deluxe..just kidding. We moved in with another friend of mine, bringing the roommate count up...but it has been good. We now live in Oregon City in a 3Bd, 2Bth house with car garage, fenced back yard, and room for Emma to grow. It really has been a great move.
Between work, the move and unpacking...I got drained. Most of my free time was spent unpacking and purging and organizing. Then the s*&t hit the fan, and I lost my job, I just started the end of July. I was devastated and started my downfall to depression. Then mu unemployment was denied..another devastation. However there is a little bot of light in there, I started classes again, had a little bit of stressed there had to rearrange schedule and find a sitter...now I am getting ready to start the 3rd week of classes, Emma is going to be 9 months months old. That made me realize she will be a yr in 3 months. OMG that is scary. but I am excited. We also got Emma's pictures done at kiddie kandids, and they are so freaky cute, it was a very long day though.check out the photo after the session she is passing out

It Has been a while
