Images of June

June was an eventful month. Here are some of the moments I was able to capture.


Emma eating. She does a lot less eating lately.


She's into expressing herself. She now makes all kinds of faces followed by a "NO!"


Always smiling!


We went to the park to feed the ducks. We had a great time and Emma was so amazed to see these new creatures!


She also enjoyed the swing!


So, one morning we found her in the food closet playing. She loves green beans and sometimes she will pull out a can to take with her in the car.


Jacob and Jami's wedding at the Chicago Temple.


The happy parents. My wonderful in-laws!


Dad and Emma waiting for the newlyweds to come out.


The Jenkins.


Emma's favorite uncle Matt. Thanks so much Matt for helping us watch her and make sure she was safe and happy during the whole trip.


All five of us. I know, I'm looking pretty plump.


Dan and Ryan.


Emma hides now when she poops. She's very proper.


Emma had a big great fall. She scraped her lovely face. Oh, what a sad day! She was feeling much better after a few minutes, while I didn't stop crying about it almost all week!


Ryan turned 27!!

So, this was our month. I'm excited for the upcoming July fun. My mom is flying back in this Saturday, July 4th, and is bringing my twin nieces with her! Emma is going to be so very happy to have two sweet playmates!
The belly keeps growing and it's getting harder and harder to move and breathe sometimes, and calculate space! The boys are doing great. They weighed 1lb and 4oz each three weeks ago. Our next appointment is a week from today and I can't wait to see how big they've gotten! They are looking just beautiful and very well made! :)

Update from Ryan!

This is my first blog entry ever. I feel kind of dumb and am not sure what I am going to say, Rigel is making me a cake for Father's Day so I thought I would handle the blog updating. At her 15 month visit Emma weighed 33lbs 9oz and she was 33 3/4 inches tall. Can you believe how big she is getting. Yesterday she was wearing her first pair of capri pants, she looked so grown up. Sometimes it's hard to remember she is still a little girl. It's easier to remember when you are spoon feeding her mac'n'cheese dinners though. I think she can tell the boys are on the way because she wants more attention, maybe that is just little kids. Rigel is 25 months along and we still don't have any names. We were thinking Elias Alejandro but with twins we are a little unsure. Let's see what else....oh last week I went to a friend's birthday party and won $1,000.00 while playing bingo. I know I know....wouldn't have gone except it was her birthday party. Can I pay tithing on that? My birthday is on Friday and am looking forward to all the family coming together, helps that Jacob and Jami's wedding reception is on Saturday. I'm sure Dan would have driven all the way anyway though! :) This concludes this blog entry!
