Sleeping Beauty!

I am 4 months old now and I am being such a good girl (at least that's what I hear momma saying all the time)!! I take a 3 hour morning nap and a 3 hour afternoon nap every day and I sleep all night long. My parents are really happy about that, I can tell! I LOVE to talk. My momma says that I am a real "chatty kathy"....But I can't help it, I have so much to say. I really have fun now playing with my toys. I can reach out and grab my toys and I even try to put them in my mouth to see what they taste like! But life is still going great! I also like to hear mommy sing and I love when people talk to me. I giggle and smile at pretty much anybody that looks at me.

My cousins in Chicago!

So I FINALLY got to meet my 3 cousins over Christmas in Chicago. They were so much fun. They all would fight over who got to hold me and feed me. I felt very loved. My oldest cousin is named Hana Moriah and she is 8 years old! And then the only boy in the family is Hunter Cole. He is just about to be 7 years old. And then the baby, well before I was born, is Heidi Noel. Heidi is 2 years old! And then I came along, Kate Embry!!! I think my boppy and papa had a good time with all of us together. I sure did!

My cool cousin, Heidi, and me!

I absolutlety love my cousin, Heidi. She would talk to me and hug me and even help give me a bath when I was in Chicago! She was always sure that I had my plug in my mouth, which I thought was really nice of her! I wish I could see her more often. I would love to play with her every day. I hope I can be like her when I grow up!!

The happiest baby in the world!

So mommy and daddy took me to Chicago to see my boppy and papa and Tante' and cousins!!! I LOVED it. I smiled the whole 2 weeks I was there! It just is the best feeling to smile. I get so excited that I can't help but kick my legs and wave my arms aorund. I hope I get to go back there really soon!

Mommy's little doll!

I think my momma thinks that I'm her dolly, cause she is always dressing me up all pretty and taking pictures of me all day long. I like posing for the pictures sometimes, but a girl has to rest!

I love being 3 months old!

Life is soooo good. I can now talk to my mommy and daddy and play with my cool toys. I have so much fun playing all day with momma. I don't know what I did when I was a newborn, because it's so much more interesting now! I still like to sleep a lot though. I can only stay awake for maybe 2 hours, and then I need to rest for a couple hours!

Boppy and Kate!

I had so much fun in Chicago visiting my boppy and papa. They are so cool! They loved spoiling me and holding me. I didn't want to leave them. I even got to see my first snow! It was beautiful and cold. I could definitely get used to it!

My first Thanksgiving!

I had so much fun on Thanksgiving! I was held the WHOLE day. I don't really know who all held me, but it was stilll great. It actually snowed and mommy and daddy took me outside so I could see it for the first time. It was so pretty. Momma said that I'll be seeing a lot more snow in a couple more weeks when we go to Chicago! I can't wait.

You're hilarious, daddy!

I am in love with a man! Momma said that he is my daddy! I don't know what a "daddy" really is, but he makes me laugh. He makes such funny noises that I just can't seem to not smile. I don't know where he goes during the day, but I never see him until at nighttime. But when I see him, I get soooo excited I just can't contain myself.

All because two people fell in love.....

Mommy is sooo funny. She can't seem to put that "flashing" thing away. She does some wierd things with me. I don't really know why she put her and daddy's rings on my toes, but oh well! What can I do, I can't even speak yet! So I guess I just have to go along with it!

Big girl!

I am such a big girl now! I love to smile and laugh at momma and daddy! I got to go to my first ever camping trip a couple weeks ago. It was so much fun. I even wore my brand new overalls! I am almost 2 months old and I am getting so excited to fly to Chicago and see my boppy and papa and Tante'. Momma said that we will have lots of fun and that I will be spoiled. That's cool with me!

5 weeks old!

I have been super sleepy lately. Momma said that it's because I'm going through a "growth spurt"! I guess I am because I now weigh 7 pounds 11 ounces. I just turned 5 weeks old yesterday too!!! Life is so much fun, at least when I am awake! Mommy gives me TONS of kisses all day long. It's kinda annoying, but I guess she loves me a lot! Mommy got so excited because I smiled at her for the first time a couple days ago. If I knew that she would be that thrilled at a smile, I would have done it 5 weeks ago!!

Our Baylor family!

Last weekend I went to my very first Baylor homecoming. I had soooo much fun. Mommy and daddy say that I am gonna go to Baylor too one day. I'm not sure about that right now, but I sure did have fun there. But I must say that the football game wasn't very exciting cause we lost. I've been told that happens A LOT! College seems like a lot of fun. But I have to concentrate on kindergarten first.

Fort Worth Zoo

I already got to go to the Fort Worth Zoo! It was soooo cool. I wanted to pet the BIG cat! But mommy and daddy said "NO". I was mad about that, but at least I was able to see it. It was so fun to get to go to the zoo already. I can't wait to go back....Maybe when I'm 2 months they'll take me back there.

First visit to mommy's work!

I finally got to meet all the voices I heard over the last 8 months of being in mommy's belly. It was pretty cool to meet a whole bunch of babies like myself. I was even able to go into the actual newborn nursery. But I am glad I didn't have to stay in one of those places when I was born. They all seemed to be so sad to be away from their mommy's and daddy's. They all were crying. And I finally got to meet Carson. Momma is good friends with Miss Lena, and she just had little Carson 3 months ago. Momma said that Carson and I are going to be friends......
