Emily's Latest Photos

Here are some of Emily's latest photos. She spends a lot of time up and down from standing, and she stands with less support.

Emily looks very sweet here at our house, but you should have seen her at her little music class today. She is used to being around the guys and hasn't spent a lot of time with peers. We are finding out she is quite outgoing in a group and a bit of a bully with kids her own age. She was right at home in the music class and was taking shakers, puppets, drums, xylophones and scarves away from the other children! She could dish it out, but couldn't take it very well, as she would let everyone know, in no uncertain terms, if someone had taken something away from her.

Emily can often be found in our "tupperware" drawer. The containers make great drums, and even better hats.

I just called this one Hurricane Emily as she had taken out all the plastics and wraps making quite the mess. She actually puts some things away, but not enough to compensate for how much she'd taken out this time.

On other notes, Matthew is enjoying school though there is a lot to take in with the change to Grade school. I can't believe how many new things he has learned in his first week. Andrew and Emily started daycare one day a week, and both seemed to do well there. I am back at work one day a week which gives me a nice balance. Bruce has been keeping busy with work and jobs around here, but he may get away to the mountains for one day this weekend.
