Road Trip to Auntie Rachael's House

Josh and I decided at the last minute to take a road trip to see Auntie Rachael in North Carolina. Since Josh is off work right now and I am on maternity leave we thought this would be a good time to go. Here is what Emma looked like most of the trip. She was great for the whole trip considering we were in the car 12 hours for two days (of course we stopped for a few breaks). Emma had her first stay at a hotel. We stayed at the Holiday Inn and she had a queen bed all to herself. Here is Emma all wrapped up and ready for a good night sleep. There had been a bad winter storm through Kentucky (as well as many other states). There was a lot of ice and many trees broke. There was a lot of areas without power. Here are two pics of what we saw driving down the road. The roads were dry and clear by the time we were on them, but I guess it was really bad.
Here is Daddy driving....he drove the whole time, I was the passenger. I guess that what happens when your husband drives for a living. I would think that he would want a break...but he does make a nervous passenger, so it is probably better that he does drives!
We made it Auntie Rachael's house Friday evening. Here's Emma with Rachael and her dogs Bailey and Daisy.
Love at first sight!

First Boyfriend

Here are some pics of Emma with her first boyfriend, Jack. My friend Susan had Jack four days after I had Emma. Here they are hanging out together.

Picture Time

We had some professional pictures done of Emma (for 1 month). A friend (who also did our wedding pics) came to our house and took these. These are just a few of my favorites. She also did a few black and white (very classy!) pictures that I will share later, Enjoy!

Sleeping Beauty

Emma loves to curl up on her belly and take short naps.

Stock Show

We went to the stock show on Monday. First we just walked around and looked at the animals and visited the booths. Josh got some Jack Daniels stuff to add to his collection and I got a "Sham-Wow!". If you have seen the commercials on TV, they really do work! There was a demonstration going on and it really is like on the commercial....so we had to get some and it was buy one get one so it seemed like we were getting a deal! Emma was in the baby carrier that you wear on your chest, all day, she slept through everything. I did get this one picture when we undid the straps for a minute. The other pics are the only ones I got during the rodeo....I know pretty lame, and not even of the fun stuff like muttin-bustin, bull-riding, or bronc-riding....oh well we always have next year!
Emma's favorite napping spot (we have YET to put her in her crib!).
Got Milk?
Emma being cute....this is for all of you who don't get to see her every day....she still doesn't do much, but she makes cute faces and sounds!

Video of Emma

Two short videos of Emma. Each is about 2 1/2 minutes long....she isn't doing much, just looking and sounding cute!

In this video Emma seems to be looking and enjoying the music and lights on her Ocean-Floor-Mat.
