Double Trouble

Oh its on now! We are in some serious trouble. It has been rough with Ian crawling and getting into EVERYTHING, but now Emma has figured it all out by watching big brother. Now if they can just learn the diversionary tactics to get one of us going one way while the other baby goes the other way, then we will be in serious trouble. I am so proud of her! She has been trying SO hard for SO long and when she finally did it for the first time, you could see it in her face how proud she was of herself. Funny enough, the actual first time she crawled I didn't have the video camera, but the first thing she crawled for was the power outlet. Yes, I know what you are saying right now, however, it was covered. But of course that is what she went for first damn it. After video taping her, she crawled to the front door and then pulled herself up to look out. She looked over her shoulder with a big smile as to say, "Look daddy I finally did it, aren't you proud of me?" It was the cutest thing ever! I hate to say it with all the great things that have transpired, but this is the proudest moment I have experienced thus far. She has worked so hard and been so frustrated to see her mobile brother while she sat there and watched.

Such a big girl! I'm so proud of her!
And those videos of Emma talking into the bucket are too cute.

Allison,
Thanks so much for the post on our blog. Our stories do sound very similar. I'm so sorry to hear we have both been down the same road this year but it is nice to know someone else understands. The days are getting tougher as we approach their first b-day. Thanks goodness we have our two busy bodies to keep me going each day. Your kids are so cute and your stories sound just like mine!
Take care,
Jessica
