Emery James is 1!!

Happy Birthday to Emery!!  We have come a long way!  She is a different baby right now - so happy and loves to cuddle and play.  I can't believe she is one!
 
A few things to remember about Emery at 1 year:
-weighs 21lb 2 oz (70th percentile) and is 27in tall (1.6th percentile!!); our sweet chubby baby!  She is about 1 lb heavier than Brody was, and about 1/2 an in shorter.
-she sleeps from about 7 or 7:30pm to 7am, with 1 or 2 naps, depending on what we are up to that day
-loves to eat everything we eat!  She is getting a little picky, but still loves all fruit, turkey sandwiches, fish, cheese, yogurt, and pretty much any snack I will give her
-loves Brody and everything he does!  She also loves to be outside, just like Brody!  We play outside for hours and hours everyday! 
-Emery loves going to Papa and Grandmas - if Brody gets to go for a few hours, she wants to go now too! 
-She is developing a quite strong personality!  She knows what she wants and will tell you if you aren't doing it right!  She also loves the paci, and sleeps with 5 or 6 every night!
We love you sweet baby girl!!  

Playing with Daddy!

Gram, Pop, and Austin came to spend the night before Emery's birthday party, so we went to eat and played the night before.  We decided to just do a small party for family only - just lunch and cake, and it was a lot of fun! We had fun visiting with everyone, and the highlight of the party was the cake, as you will see!


Pop and Jay had a big job that night to do too - put the new kitchen together, which took a while, but looks awesome!  Both kids love it!

Breakfast...

I made a banner with all Emery's monthly pictures - it turned out pretty cute!


Emery loves Jessica!  She came over early to help me decorate


Brody and Austin had fun - and ate a lot of cupcakes!


My sweet girl!








Memaw even got to come - she rode from Wynne with MarMar and Uncle George.








Pop and Papa






Emery loved the cake so much! She almost ate the whole thing, so we finally took it away from her and stuck her in the bath!












Ley and Emery

It was a fun party!  Happy birthday!

Having a snack and playing outside




Making muffins for breakfast


Brody loves going outside after bath, before  bedtime


She does have a spoon in one hand, but it was easier to eat with the other hand!
