Summer

Amelia got her first pool this weekend. Just add water - she is ready for summer.

Posing

Amelia really turns it on for the camera. We were saying how cute this outfit was and how we wanted to take some pictures showing it off. Voila, she plopped down and posed for us.

Walking Soon

Amelia has been propping her self up on things, standing and starting to move. Click here to view a movie of Amelia training for things to come.

Lungs

We are trying to instill a good work ethic at an early age. Here Amelia learns that if she wants to play with her new toy she has to blow it up first.

One From the Archives

Here is an oldie but a goodie that I have been meaning to put up for some time. Also, I have gotten lazy on the picture taking front lately. As the tree in the background indicates, this one is from Christmas, 2004.

Resting

In a rare moment, Amelia lets Mom snuggle with her. Usually Amelia is much too busy for this type of thing.

Special Delivery

Little people will be popping up all over town soon. Congratulations Becky & Stephen, Ryan & Erin, Kari & Eric, Sally & John and anyone else I forgot. Most of you are first timers so here is some sage advice: sleep while you can.

Amelia Rose and Bella Rose

Amelia and Bella had a walk this weekend. Amelia likes watching all the things Bella can do. Good motivation for learning to walk.





They also played in the park and set up house.

Sign of Things to Come

Mom = size 10, Dad = size 13, Baby Amelia = big feet are in your future girl!

Dinner Time

Spaghetti is one of her new favorite foods. The taste is ok but what really gets her is the sheer joy of pounding her little fists into the tray and watching sauce spray all over the place.

Happy Mothers Day

Who else could take Amelia from the baby ICU to this in less than one year.



Amelia (and her dad) are both very lucky. Happy Mothers Day Emma!

Beautiful Girl

Ok, she is my first born child and the sky is blue, the trees are green, and the sun is shining just behind her head, but isn't this just the face of divine beauty.
