April Pictures

April has been a milestone month for Emily.  She started crawling on the 1st, and has been pulling herself to a standing position since then too.  Over this past weekend we got out the walking toy that Brandon used, and she can walk while holding onto it.  She just learned how to wave, and she drank out of a straw for the first time on Saturday.  Brian is pretty sure there is a bump on her lower gum that will be her first tooth.  Whew!
Brandon is the typical 3-year-old with a constant barrage of why questions.  His curiousity is endless!  With the great improvement in his speech, he's able to carry on a pretty good two-way conversation.  Sometimes he is a super big brother, making Emily laugh and bringing her toys.  He still loves to maul her, though, and has to be reminded to be gentle!

Another playdate with Claire at Wacky Bounce!  Things are getting serious...

Easter Sunday

Easter egg hunt!

Emily found one too!

Brandon thought it would be fun to dump out the entire bin of baby toys
right in front of Emily.  As you can tell, she thought it was great!

Brandon likes brushing George (George likes it too)

Emily discovered Brandon's BBQ 

She had fun opening and closing the doors and peeking in

Brandon getting a nebulizer at the doctor's office after getting a bad cold 

I realized I didn't have enough naked baby pictures!

Emily can pull herself up in her crib now 

80 degree weather in April?  Get out the water table!

Emily loved it! 

Emily can get herself in a lot more trouble now! 

Another nice day... we went to the park

Emily's first time in the swing... first this...

Then this!!!  She was laughing and smiling and loving it!

This is Emily waving hello

Two great kids!
