Emma was a ladybug! We went trick-or-treating in the morning to Nana and Grammys house. I had to work12-830, bummer, but the exxxxtra cash is needed! anywho! heres a couple pics, because lets be honest thats all you want..

18 months!

Emma had her 18 month appoinment on friday! I seriously can NOT believe she is 18 months already! It boggles my mind where all the time went?!

She is....

21.10 pounds (10th percentile)
32.5 inches tall (75th percentile)
44cm for the head (4th percentile)

Shes talking a lot! She can say:
Mom
Dad
Pak (papa casey)
TT
Sass
E-E
Jack
Chase
Shay
Nana
More
No
Nurse
Mouse
bye-bye
crackers
fa-fles (waffles)
Juice
cheese
milk
turk (turkey)
chick (chicken)
water
buzz
dy (woody)

Shes a hilarious baby! Cant resist buttons! loves playing chase, and loves playing with her cousins. Her favorite movie is Toy Story. She carries her Woody doll with her EVERYWHERE. Especially to bed! She also started Nursery last week, and LOVES it! She did have her cousin Sass and TT in there with her, but she still never cried and didnt want to leave!

Prayer

Ive noticed this year i'm learning the power of prayer! We've had our ups and downs financially. I recently got an evening job at a Halloween store. Theyve only given me a couple hours a week, and i have been so bummed about it because i thought it would help us out a ton! Well tonight i was crunching numbers and figuring out our budget for the next month, silently praying to myself that we somehow could make things work. Well not 30 minutes later i get a phone call from a random number, it was my schedule manager asking me to work 8 hours tomorrow, and 8 hours on Saturday! I was a little bummed because its Emmas first "real" Halloween, but shes not going to trick-or-treat, she HATES masks and scary things. So after Kelly and i discussed it, (and i made my mom and sister tell me i'm not a bad mom) i called my manager back and said i was available! I know its not very many hours, but it is a lot more than what i was originally getting! My prayer was answered! and my testimony grew that much more!

More lady-like

Emma is very "floppy" as a few people like to describe her. She always has her legs wide open.. and you can wiggle her arms and stuff and she just goes with it.

Well this day, she felt very lady-like. and i was proud.



P.s so not a huge stain on my couch, its just a lil wet, we just got out of the pool (note the swimsuit)
