Happy October again! on Monday, October 4, 2004 @ 13:06 PM
So the trip to the Big House was a success - UM won, thankfully, and Emma was a great sport! She really loved it when everyone cheered and she could scream and clap. She really liked the band, too. I put up pics of her first visit and also entered one of them in a contest -
http://www.americanbaby.com/photocontest/vote.jhtml?entryId=540600014
so if you get a chance this week stop by and vote! You get five votes per day. She is currently lagging - but I think it is because nobody has really voted but Aunt Vicki and I! One of the kids has 92 votes already?! And he isn't nearly as cute as Em :-) So if you get time - we'd appreciate it.

On to other things...still trying to get stuff in order for fall. It seems like a never-ending list around here. We went to the pum-in (pumpkin) patch yesterday and picked out some pum-ins. That is Emma's favorite word lately. She also is adding "Mama" to the end of everything. It is so funny to hear her say "Oh, Mama" - I'm sure she has heard "Oh, Emma" enough already in her short little life. She is also fond of "No, Mama" - I am NOT as fond of that one. But she says Nooooo...a lot of times when I think she means yes, so what are ya gonna do?

She is definitely a bundle of energy and keeping us on our toes, always. I love being with her - but I cherish those couple of hours while she is napping, too! Which she is doing now - so I'd better go make the best of it.

Love,
care
