Preschool

My little Eliza has started preschool, I can't believe she is of age already. Although I'm a little sad my girl is growing up, she on the other hand was so excited for the first day of school. The night before school I wanted to make sure she went to bed early so we could get up and be on time for school. Eliza was so excited she couldn't fall asleep, it reminded me of the night before Christmas, tossing and turning and talking to herself. Eventually she fell a sleep, when I came down in the morning to wake her up the first thing she wanted to do was put on her back back, she just loves that thing. As we left for school in the car she had to tell me that she was to walk up to the door first( miss independent). I think she why she wasn't scared is that her Great Grandma Robin is her teacher so that made the first day a little easier I feel. I know she will have fun this year, she enjoys school and loves to learn new things.

2010 Football season has arrived

As most of you know my husband is a big sports fanatic, he enjoys watching every sport especially football. As the summer draws to an end, along with cooler temperatures, the changing colors of the leaves, also comes football season. Last week we had the opportunity to go to the Pittsburgh and Utah game, it was such a blast! It is always nice to spend some time with just Jeff and I( which rarely happens) and what a great game it was, we both lost our voices( felt as if we had a cold) from screaming so loud. There were many times throughout the game where I thought we had lost the chance to win, but those Utes hung on strong and won it in over time, Go Utes!!!




You would have thought with all the people there I could have asked some one to take our picture, but no, had to pull out take it yourself skills.

4 month check up

Emma had her 4 month check up last week and is doing very well. She still is below average on her weight(42%), but her height is 84% she is just tall and skinny. Now that she is four months she has started rice cereal at night, maybe this well help her gain a little weight. She is doing well with the cereal, it's funny to see her trying to eat, because most of it comes right back out. She is getting better each day and seems to enjoy it, it will be fun to start feeding "real" food in a couple of months.

She has been such a good baby thus far and I hope that she continues to stay that way, she is sleeping from, between 8:30-9 all the way to 8, oh how that is a blessing. she is also starting to reach for things what ever it is she finds always ends up in her mouth. Being a mom is so much fun, I'm so grateful that I can share these moments with her.

Emma's first trick

Since last week Emma has been trying to roll over and on Monday she finally did it. Now every chance she gets she is on her belly, she still takes a minute to get her arm out but eventually she does it and is content on her belly, unlike Eliza was. I get a little nervous at night because I have found her on her belly in the morning, call me paranoid, I just worry about SIDS so I have to check on her like three times. I just love watching them develop it is so amazing and fast how they start to figure things out.
