Finally a picture with Grandpa Eian!!!!

Emma has seen Grandpa Eian many, many times but we have never taken a picture.  Tonight I finally got a few shots!  Grandma Eian got to snag Emma away from Grandpa for a few poses also.

Emma with Grandpa Eian



Proud Grandpa and Grandma.  Take note of the blue plates,
these are Emma's favorite things to see at grandpa and grandma's house.

This picture does not show it, but Emma loves being bounced
by grandma.  Of course they will look at the plates also,

Happy Emma and Grandma.

First trip to South Dakota

Emma made the big trip to Platte South Dakota at 6 weeks old.  She traveled great for the 6+ hour trip so we will make many more trips to SD for visits. 

Emma got to see her grandpa and grandma Ringling for the 2nd time and also the Kuipers family again.

Emma did not get to meet her Aunt Vicki's family yet so here are pictures of her family meeting Emma.  Kevin had to work this weekend so we will get his picture later.


Cousin Dawson - 4 yrs old.  He loved holding Emma and making
sure she was always happy.


Cousin Dayton - 3 yrs old.  He loved holding Emma also but
did find helping Grandpa with the tractor more interesting.


Discussing who's turn it is to hold Emma...

Cousin Dillon - 13 yrs old.  I think Dillon is much more interested
in sports than little babies.  At least I was able to get 1 picture.

Dawson being silly...

Aunt Vicki with Emma both looking good in red.

The Adams family, minus Kevin.  What a happy family!

Abby having fun with Emma.  Most of the weekend was Abby
holding and loving Emma.  Abby will be a great future babysitter.

Daddy giving Emma her first bottle

Emma has someone besides mom that can feed her now.  Daddy gave her a bottle at 5 wks and she loved it.  Emma loves looking at her daddy as she eats.



Admiring dad

Gulping it all down

Emma looking cute - week 5.

More photos of Emma looking cute and to show how much she is changing.  She is so alert and starting to have lots of facial expressions, even a few smiles.

With all of these photos (many more not posted) Emma can not say we did not take any pictures of her.








Check out the cool outfit the Kuipers gave me.  I look adorable!!!

Yes, I know I am so stylish with my fancy boots.


Emma loves bath time!

It took a few weeks but now Emma loves her bath time.  Usually both mom and dad are present for bath time, she is a handful in the slippery water.

Getting ready...


Oh, this is not so bad...


I could relax like this all day!

Emma has more friends visiting...

Emma is so lucky to have so many wonderful people visiting her.  Mom is also lucky to have so many friends keeping me company.

Tanya's Target Coworker, Rachel, gave Emma lots of love.

Another Target coworker, Laura, is going to be a mommy in February to a little boy. 
She did a great job with Emma so I know she will be a great mom.

"Aunt" Jody gave this adorable hat to Emma. 
It is Emma's favorite hat.  Thank you Jody!!!
See, I look adorable!!!!!




Jody also got Emma her first workout outfit.
Ready to workout with mom!


Love this picture of Emma relaxing with dad.

Emma's Newborn Professional Photos

Emma had her newborn professional pictures taken at Target when she was 3 wks old.  She did such a great job and did not cry at all.  Here are some of our favorite photos.
