First Easter

Anya meets the Easter Bunny for the first time and had lots of fun grabbing his whiskers!

Anya and Papa are like two peas in a pod. She is very happy when he holds her and looks o-so pretty in her pink Easter dress!

Gramma and Anya could not be any cuter or closer or happy to have one another their lives. We discovered Anya looks VERY cute in pink thanks to Gramma!

Easter Bunny was very sneaky leaving Anya her basket in her crib while she was away knocking people's socks off with her utter cuteness.

This is one of out favorite photos of all time! Papa and his grandkids!

St. Louis Visitors!

My Aunt Julie and I had such a super duper fun time. I learned I could do all sorts of tricks in my Bumbo chair and she was great with Peek-a-boo, too.

My Grams came out to see me, too. She is so loving and made sure I was held a lot, which I am not complainin' about what so ever!

My First Hike Ever

Mommy and daddy keep talking about mountains, hiking, camping and adventures for this family. They seem very enthusiastic about the subject, so I guess I have no other choice, but go along for the ride. We'll see where they take us and I am a big fan of the philosophy "baby steps".

This first hike was 40 minutes from our home over on Cougar Mountain. It was a lot of fun! Emmett enjoyed "being the leader" and managed to walk the entire trail on his own. It lasted roughly 30-35 minutes when I decided I was really hungry and tired of looking at trees.

6 month check-up

Yesterday, we had Anya's 6 month check-up (seconds end up going later at 6.5 months!) and the doctor said she is doing great! The list of vaccines is growing, which I find a bit concerning. My question for the doctor was, "can these little babies really handle all these immunizations?" She convinced me it was fine, so we went with H1N1 among 4 others.

Here are baby girl's stats:

Height--26.5 in

Weight--17 lbs

Head--44.5 cm

Basically, she is in the 50-75 percentile except for the head where she is 90-95%. She must have her mommy's noggin. Well, if that was the case she would be off-the-charts. :-)

I love playing with my big bro and daddy too!

Tummy Time!

I love Tummy Time especially when it's with daddy's phone!
