Johnny Jumper

Emma loves her jumper!  When we put her in, the jumping does not stop.  Earlier today she was going straight for about 40 minutes.  It is too cute.  Sorry, not the best video but you can get the point.

Creative Minds??

The Wallers are in need of some creativity.  This is a really fun chest that we have had sitting in our garage and cannot think of what to do with it...  So, we are open for suggestions.  We used to keep magazines in it, but they curl up and we do not really like that.  

Bring on the ideas!

Summer Nights

Being in Camping Ministry, our summers are pretty crazy.  Matt usually does not get home until pretty late at night, so Jen has picked up a new hobby: sewing.  It seems there are so many fun things to make for Emma.  So, my first project came when I found this online.  My birds are done and now all I have to do is put it all together. 

These turned out so so cute, our little nephews look adorable in them!
These are some little bags that I made for my sister.  They are an Amy Butler pattern, I really like her stuff.  They turned out a lot better than I thought they would and definitely took up plenty of time working on them.
So, that is what Jen has been up to till all hours of the night.  I have some other cute things in the works but I can't share them yet... 

Always look around

Well.  Emma had been showing great signs of another tooth coming on this past week.  So, as the great mom that I thought I was, I put that Orajel along those top gums and daily I would feel to check if anything was coming through.  So, today as we were eating some yummy apples for breakfast I notice that she no longer had two teeth on the bottom, but three!  Who knew, I never even thought to look at the bottom, isn't it the rule that once they get two on the bottom next comes the top?!?  So... Emma now has three on the bottom and is much happier today as it has finally broken through!

6 Months

Emma turned 6 months old this week.  We had her 6 month check up and Emma is 27.5 inches long and weighs 18.5 lbs.  The time has really flown by, it is so hard to believe that she is half a year old already.  She is just growing so fast and just as fun as ever.  

Some new things in the last month:

-mastered the roll from back to front and has an occasional roll from front to back, still working on  that though

-she is loving her sweet potatoes and carrots

-sitting, of course it does not last too long before she is on her face

-she loves playing peek-a-boo

and

-she has her two bottom teeth in
