Just some fun pictures of the girls from the last week!
















Christmas Crafts

So we have been having more structured days. Trying to work on shapes and colors. To try and break up the day we have been making some crafts. Emma loves it when I get the glue out!

Her "socks!"

The snowman...she had major issues with getting the glue on her hands!


I can't get over how big she is getting!


Christmas tree



I am so happy that she loves this type of activity. It makes my day seeing her so crafty and creative! Plus I have these wonderful treasures to remind me of this precious time in our lives!




Our girls and their dress up clothes!

Sophia is getting so big and has mastered walking! It is so funny to see her walking across the room after Emma. I'm used to Emma following me around, but now when I turn around, I have two behind me!!




They honestly play so well together, I am shocked everyday that I see them together like this.


My little mommy. She loves her dress up clothes and dolls. We watched a friends daughter last weekend and Emma was so worried about making sure that Cassidy had her blanket, sippy cup, and pacifier.



She is so into her dress up clothes, bracelets, shoes, and glasses. I have a hard time keeping her dressed in her normal everyday clothes!




Family Christmas Pictures

We had our family pictures taken for Christmas cards and such. Loved them, just wished that the girls would have worked with us a little more! Hope you enjoy!
















Family Pictures Continued











My favorite picture!!!




Turkey Day

We were able to spend an amazing Thanksgiving at home in Indy with the Waggoner side of our family. Jon was able to drive up from Kentucky, Sara came from Virginia, and we were there from 'Bama. Not to mention all the other family members that are from the Indy area. We had fum eating, talking and playing lots of games.


Emma loved on her Aunt Sara quite a bit!

November Flew By!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We can not believe how quickly November flew by! It seems like just yesterday we were going Trick or Treating! We had a very busy month in November. November 13th, Chad and Danessa drove to Nashville and met the girls and I. They took the girls back to Indy and I headed back to 'Bama. Zach and I had two days where we accomplish quite a bit around the house and even slept in! Then that Monday morning we headed to New Orleans for the night. We stayed in a very nice hotel off Bourbon Street and I must say, we could have gone without stopping there. We felt very old seeing all that was going on! Tuesday morning we woke up and headed to San Antonio. Zach had a conference and I got to tag along. We stayed in a very nice hotel and while he went to his meetings, I went to the gym, watched tv and took NAPS! It was amazing. When he was done with his meetings, we were able to spend several of those nights on the Riverwalk. I loved it! We both agreed that we would have no problems living in San Antonio! Friday evening we packed up and hit the road. We made it north of Dallas and camped in the rain, doesn't sound like much fun but we had a blast. Then we got up the next morning with plans of stopping in St. Louis to tour the Arch. Zach had never been there and was too excited! We ended up getting there 10 minutes after it closed, so we just walked around in awe of it's size and structure. Then we headed home to see our girls because we didn't know how to act without them!

This is a brick that was purchased by my mom and dad to honor Zach and his service in the Air Force. It is located in the Veterans Memorial Park in Greenfield.

Sis, has started walking!!!!

Our little old lady!


Raaah!



Hairdresser?!?!

November

The girls being crazy with their daddy.

Sophia is getting sooooooo big! 19.2 pounds at her last check up. She is not doing very well with the teething and she is currently getting over a 24 hour bug. But through all the fevers and such, she is still my happy baby girl.

Emma is still loving her MDO program and still cries when she is picked up. She also loves the time she is getting to spend in the child care facility at the YMCA while Zach and I work out. She has the ladies in there wrapped around her fingers. We have started a more structured day now that Zach is working straight days. We have added several 15 minute intervals of "studying" to our day. Emma loves it and asks to "work."

An Elmo for each girl!



My girls are getting along so well and playing together more and more each day. Not sure how much longer this will last, but I will take it while I can get it!





Kitchen Floor

While the girls and I were gone, Zach surprised me with a new floor. He pulled up the old nasty linoleum and tiled it! It looks so amazing and I love it so much!




Halloween in Indy

The girls and I were able to make a nice long visit to Indy the week before Halloween. Zach wasn't able to make it because of a new duty he had been assigned. He had a lot of work to get done and I think he was really ready for some alone time. We were able to visit lots of family and the girls had an amazing time. And I was able to get a night out and see some old friends!



We took the girls Trick or Treating at the high school for a "safe" Trick or Treating night. Emma was very shy at first, but soon after she realized that she was getting candy, the shyness went away.

My Elmo and Cookie Monster.


Sorry we don't have more pictures of our trip home, but mom took most of the pictures and we weren't able to transfer the pictures.


Fall in Bama

With this cooler weather, we have been able to spend a lot more time outside. Emma has found a new love for her toy box and loves to play in it, she just can't stand to get any sand on herself.

Sophia is doing great. She had a swallow study done a few weeks back and it showed that she does have heartburn and we switched her meds. She is doing AMAZING! She isn't spitting up and seems to be a much happier baby! Along with that she is eating lots of solids and is walking holding onto things. Any day now and she will be following Emma around the house.

Emma loves being my little helper. She had to feed her baby while I was feeding Sophia. She is a great little mommy!

Waggoners on the move!

So, long time no update....sorry. Emma has started her "Mothers Day Out" program. She goes from 9:00 to 2:15 ever Wednesday and she loves it. We pack her lunch box and off she goes. She apparently has so much fun that when we pick her up, she doesn't want to come home. She leaves crying "more play please!"

Emma sitting with Daddy in his man cave!

The girls are really starting to play so very very well together. They can destroy the play room in less than 5 minutes, but I don't care when I see this! Sophia is walking holding onto things. She will be fully mobile in no time! She is doing very well with her baby food, but we are still having problems with her spitting up. She will be going in for a "Swallow Study" on Wednesday.

We went to the Autauga county fair! It is only about a 5 minute walk from our house so we went to check it out. Daddy said no rides but......

She explained just how much she needed to go on it and he gave in, but he made mommy go with her.

The Waggoner girls will be leaving Bama for Indy on Sunday, so make sure you get a hold of us and we will stop by!
