At the park in Tucson

Emmett and Mommy Kirsten at Lincoln Park in Tucson, what a great trip! See the beautiful mountains in the background...
Emmett is six months old now and is trying very hard to crawl. He's got the form down, rocking back and forth on his hands and knees. Just needs to figure out how to move his hands.
We tried to get him some soft-soled shoes now that he likes to practice walking everywhere, but his feet are too big and too fat to fit into baby shoes!

Presents, presents, presents

We took our first airplane trip with a baby to go home to Arizona for Christmas and New Year's. This is a picture of Emmett and Mommy Vanessa in Tucson with lots of presents!
Emmett was a natural traveler and we all enjoyed seeing friends and family immensely. As usual, the trip went by too fast. But Emmett got to meet lots of new family members and friends, of course he charmed them all :)

Our gift to us...

Merry Christmas to our family! A pool and spa is being installed right now and should be ready in February... doesn't it look awesome?

Look at me!

Did you see me? Did you see me?
I was riding Mommy's head this morning and it was so funny!

Emmett loves to be swung around now and definitely loves to be up high. For some reason, he also finds it hilarious when you do a fake cough for him... you can get lots of laughs out of that little trick. He even tries to make his own fake cough sometimes to get our attention, very cute :)

It's December now, things are busy, busy. Just this weekend it got chilly like a real winter. We aren't doing too much at home for Christmas, because we'll be in Arizona for the holidays.
