10 months & a bike ride

Today Emma is 10 months old. I can't believe it. 2 more months and my babe is a year, where did the time go. *She has 6 teeth. 4 on bottom and her 2 front teeth! her top ones are so far apart, it is so cute and so funny. *She scrunches her nose when she laughs. (without realizing it I may have been the one who taught her this) she also does it while sniffing in and out, its so funny *She loves real, none baby food. but she still eats baby food good. *She is starting to walk WHAT!!! ha, she'll take 4-5 steps. *loves to be outside *hates to have her hair done. which with a little gel is pretty curly *Love you so much Emma, you bring us so much happiness!!

On another note today we got a bike trailer which converts into a jogger and we went for a bike ride. We went to the Aliso Woods trails, which we went to when we first got the bikes a few years ago. It is SO SO pretty. And there is so many fun tails. We had a blast and it was so relaxing. Emma loved it.

Stahelis come for a visit!

Randan and I have loved all the company, this weekend my sister and her cute family came to visit. They got here late Wednesday night and Thursday they went to Lego Land. We didn't go cause Randan had his last Doctor appointment. All went well with that and we're just waiting for him to get out!! He is so excited to be out and to move on, and i'm happy for him! anyways, Friday we went to the beach, we kind of picked a bad day for it, it was pretty cold but still a lot of fun. Randan and Reece even got in the water with the boogie boards and road some waves while the kids played in the sand. Even Em got in on the Sand playin'! The past few times we've gone she hasn't loved the sand and this time she was havin fun with it! Saturday we all went to Old Town in San Diego. It wasn't as fun as I expected but we still had a good time. Ate lunch at a Mexican restaurant, got some Candy at a cool candy shop and looked at all the shops etc. We had so much fun having them here. In the mornings we'd play horse/basketball at the park behind our house, we ate some good food, played games at night and had great company. Lots of laughs! I asked Macee (Meags daughter) what her favorite part of there vacation was and she said sleeping in my sleeping bag at night haha, she's so cute!) Emma's getting used to people so keep the company coming! :) I think my parents are coming this next weekend!
(Meag send me the pictures from your camera :)

Randan's family visits!!

Fran, Jess, Kaydee, and all the kids came to visit! It was so fun having them here. We played at the beach most of the time. The beach really never gets old it is one of the main things I will miss about California for sure! Its so relaxing, peaceful, pretty and fun. The water was really cold so we didn't get in it much, except for chasing after Shelby, that girl loved the water! She was so cute, you could tell she was dead tired but she just kept running back for the water! Emma wasn't quite herself, I think she just isn't used to all the people, something i hate about living away from family. She was so sober the whole time. oh well we'll be back soon and she'll be able to warm up to everyone. Thanks for coming guys!

I missed it by a day! Emma was nine months yesterday! I can't believe it. I can't believe how big she's getting! Its so fun watching her figure things out and seeing her cute little personality grow.

*Emma will take a step or 2 but no more. Walking is right around the corner and I can't believe it!

Weekend with Friends

Last Weekend Taysh and Zack came for the weekend! We had a great time! They got here Saturday morning and we got some lunch, hung out at the beach, and played some games. We ate dinner and then went to the San Diego temple and Downtown SD. Sunday we got ready and went to Sea World. It was a lot of fun and again Randan and I got in free! We ate dinner at a place on the Harbor then went back home and finished the nights with some more games. Monday Randan had to work and Taysh and Zack got ready to head back. We had so much fun and it was great to be able to visit with Taysh! We love having visitors!

Christmas,New Years, Em's 8 months!

I hope everyone had a great Christmas! I know we did! We went to Enterprise on the 23rd. As always we played lots of games, ate yummy food, and had great company! Like I always say we're so lucky to have both our familys in the same place! For Christmas Em wasn't quite sure why we were waking her up. She played with the ribbions and ate some candy cane then was ready to go back to sleep. We sure got spoiled by everyone. It was a blast. on the 28th Randan and I left Emma with Grandma and went Cross-Country skiing! It was great and so pretty. That was the first time I'd done it. It was so fun to be able to get away with Randan we have so much fun together. We sure missed Emmi though :) on the 30th we went to the Temple with Randans parents and then Fred took us on a horse ride for my birthday! It was such a fun day! I've been wanting to go on one for a while! And Emma got to play with Aunt Jess and Kaydee and their kiddos.I know she loved it! For New Years Eve we spent the afternoon with the Woods playing games and eating good food. The night we went to my sisters and played more games with them, my parents, and her mother/father in law! We had such a great time! We left to come home on the 1st to 75 degree weather! I can't wait to see what the new year brings, bring it on!!! :)
