Sowing Sprouts: September 2011

See, we do all get along (sometimes)!

I'm (going to be) one!

I'm going to turn one year old this week. Do you know what I've done in a year? I've eaten, slept, cried, crawled, walked, and did the other necessary things for a baby to do.

But I'm not really a baby anymore. See... I can stand and I'm walking!

And I'm swinging (with some pushes from my sister behind me)!

And I'm serious (what is that over there?).

And of course I'm happy (and walking to my Daddy!)

I'm four (and a month)

So I turned four last month in August. My Mama wanted Daddy to have a "photo shoot" of me when I'm four. It took us a little while, but we got it done. And I got to play at the same time!

I wanted to go to the "big red park." Does this park look red to you? Mama and Daddy said this park was less busy... something about a race at the other park.

Today I learned how to ride on the "zip line" at the park all by myself (well, almost because my Mama had to help me off at the end).

It takes a lot of concentration! And the tongue helps my balance. I promise! Don't knock it until you try it!

Take pictures of me, Daddy!

Why are you taking so many pictures of Meredith and Emmaline? So what if Meredith turned 4 last month and Emmaline is turning 1 in a few days.

Take pictures of me, Daddy!

Mama should have bought me a turtleneck.

Daddy says you get extra points if you understand the reference...

Walking!

Posted by Emmaline Ruth at 8:52 AM

Step one... move your right leg.

Step two... move your left leg.

Step three... repeat.

Step four... fall and ask for help getting back up :(

I'll get a hang of this soon, don't worry!

School

I'm ready, Mama. Let's go! School is going to be SO MUCH FUN!!!

Look what I made! I've also learned new songs, painted my name, painted with vegetables, and had lots and lots of fun! :)

Theo wants to know when he gets to go?

I love my Mama, Daddy, brother, and sister. But can you guess what I love even more?

Did you guess BROWNIES??

Footprint Butterflies

Look how big our feet are! Meredith, Theodore, and I made some crafts the other day. Mama let us get paint on our feet, then we made butterflies with our footprints!

Dinosaur Tails

My Mama sewed me a dinosaur tail! How cool!

I haven't played with it much yet, and I didn't really give Daddy a whole lot of chances to get pictures of me with it on. I was too bashful...
