Cut it out!

Sometimes Mama tells Emma to cut it out if Mama is working on her laptop and Emma is wanting to watch a video on it. I kept
telling Mama to say stop please instead, because we don't want Emma telling us or someone else to cut it out. Well guess what...Mama
was giving Emma a bath and scrubbing her neck and Emma said "Cut it out!" Mama thought it was hysterical.

Retiring 3 Month Sleepers

Maddy will be 3 months on the 15th and tonight we retired her 3 month sleepers. She was getting too long for them and she is now wearing a 6 month sleeper. It's baggy, but the length fits. Length of body and feet seem to fit almost perfectly, so we'll see how long she can wear them.

She still fits into her 3 month clothes.

Happy Halloween!

Emma loved her Wow Wow Wubbzy pumpkin. This year we got 131 kids and gave out a lot of candy, glow bracelets, and little toys.

Mama practiced trick or treating with Emma by having her ring the front door, saying trick or treat, and then I would give her candy. The funniest part of the evening was before they left Emma kept saying trick or treat and pulling candy out of our candy pumpkin and putting them in her own.

Maddy was a caterpillar and Emma was a Jelly Fish.


We also had tendrils in a necklace around Emma's neck, but unfortunately she didn't like wearing them. Maybe when she's older...

Six Hour Stretch

For the past four days Maddy has been eating last around 7pm ish and then not again until 1am ish. The latest she has fallen asleep was 9:15pm. Not bad of a long stretch for an almost two month old, but it would be nice if we could shift it a few hours so that we could get in some more sleep at night. Can't wait until she can sleep through the night. :-)

(She then eats again around 5am ish and next is 8am ish which coincides with the time Emma wakes up.)

Little Mommy in the Making

I thought it was so cute today when Emma grabbed the boppy and her baby doll, so I showed her how to put it around her lap.



You can't see it too well in the photo above, but her doll is wearing a diaper. Last weekend Emma grabbed one of Maddy's diapers and wanted to put it on her doll, so Mama helped her.

A few weeks ago Emma started trying to burp her toys like I burp Maddy. She'd hold them over her shoulder and pat their backs.

One time she even tucked a little blanket under her toys chin like I tuck a burp rag under Maddy's.

Pumpkins

Emma was all smiles, because Maddy and I were going with her and Mama on an outing together. It was the first time we all were going out together.



She kept telling Maddy that she loved her.



Emma wanted to help pull the wagon.



Then she wanted to sit in it.

Sandbox

Our neighbor gave us their old sandbox and Emma loves it.



Emma and I were outside one day and I didn't want her to play in the sandbox yet, because Maddy was going to wake up from her nap soon. When she asked if she could play in it I told her no not yet but maybe tonight. She then asked for "5 minutes please." We let her know when her bath or something she's doing is going to end soon by saying "Okay 5 more minutes."
