Halloween 2007

A friend of ours taught Emily to raise her hands when she hears the phrase, "So big." Now, she does it spontaneously, but raises only one hand up in the air.

Halloween 2007

Emily celebrated her first Halloween as a Pea Pod. Her mommy and I went as a mommy and a daddy. 🙂

Mommy and Emily in the Mountains, originally uploaded by Robby Edwards.

Great Smoky Mountains National Park, October 2007

We headed up to the mountains to enjoy the change in weather (finally!). Emily didn’t want to look at the camera. She seemed to be distracted by all the other people that were around us.

This was taken at Newfound Gap. Later, we hiked to the top of Clingmans Dome.

(8 months) Emily was helping Mommy sort clean socks. The laundry basket is just the right size for play. I’m not sure that Mommy was very efficient with Emily’s help. She is sure cute!
