First Tooth!!!!

Kaitlynn has her first tooth!!! Mama and I were in town today and Mama was in the backseat with Kaitlynn and Emily. She said "Lora, I think I feel a tooth!" So when we stopped and got out at our next stop I checked and sure enough Kaitlynn has her first tooth. It is on the bottom left and has just started to poke through. This probably explains why she has been a little fussy lately. I decided that with this new accomplishment must come a reward and I bought her a new vibrating starwberry teething toy! I can't believe she already has a tooth. She is growing and changing so fast. She now weighs 13lbs and 13oz. Sure wish they would stay little longer!

Bath Time Fun!!

Bath time is one of our favorite times! Emily had to have a bath this morning and just insisted on Kaitlynn taking one with her. The problem was I was home alone and would not be able to wash Emily's hair and body if Kaitlynn was taking a bath too. But Emily was just very insistant and so I thought about putting the Bumbo seat in the tub with Kaitlynn in it. Kaitlynn loves sitting in that little purple seat and I was sure it would probably float and it did. They were so cute I just had to take a few pictures. The first one Emily is telling Kaitlynn to look at the camera. Emily repeats everything anyone says these days. The second and fourth one I actually was able to get both of them to look at the camera. The third one shows Emily washing Kaitlynn's hair! Everytime I washed something of Emily's then she had to was that part of Kaitlynn's body. She is such a big helper!! They played in the tub for about 45 minutes and I was able to get some laundry folded! What a fun time!

Riding a Horse!

Here are some pictures of Emily riding a horse for the first time!! The horses name is Kate and thanks to Jeff and Stephanie Lewter, Emily was able to take a ride on her. Emily did very well riding, especially never having been around horses before. Lathan wanted to ride with Emily so I had to get a few pictures of them on Kate together. Someday we would like to get a horse of our own. Thanks to Jeff and Stephanie for helping us make this memory!!

Emily's Mustang

Here is Emily's Red Mustang that Mommie gave her for Christmas. She absolutely loves this little car. She is getting better at driving it, but still has a hard time with the concept of turning the wheels. She drives it all over Wilson, to the bank, to Lathan and Gage's house, to the post office, to the Luthern church parking lot that is very very smooth, and of course just around in the yard. It is a very detailed little car, with a horn that honks and a radio that plays 3 different songs. It has three speeds, reverse, slow and fast, however we left the screw in place so she cannot go fast yet. It is a two seater, which will be very nice when Kaitlynn gets big enough to ride with her, which won't be too long from now. Oh, it also has an adjustable seat, but we still have to put a pillow behind Emily when she drives because she has a hard time reaching the pedal. Thanks Mommie for this great gift!!!!!

What we've been doing!

Sorry it has been so long since I have posted anything. It seems like I just can't get to the computer and then when I do I forget to bring the camera so I can post some pictures. Oh well, maybe I will do better in February!
Here are a few new things that we have been doing. Emily rode a horse for the first time, thanks to Jeff and Stephanie Lewter for providing the horse!! Emily is in the "Me Do It" stage right now, she wants to do everything herself!! Kaitlynn is rolling over, sitting up and reaching for everything! She also laughs really funny, especially when Emily is laughing at her. They seem to really love each other, even as young as they are.
Pictures to come soon!
