Winter in NC

I thought these pjs were hysterical and couldn't resist buying them.

Emerson matches her tights w/ her cardigan.

Daddy takes Emerson on a hike - she likes grabbing his head!

Scout & Fletcher enjoy a romp in the snow.

Webb isn't too sure about the snow.

He liked stomping the snow piles.

Webb wasn't a big fan of the sled either.

My car looks just like it did when I lived in Michigan...

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Well, we've passed the 9 month mark! Emerson now has two bottom teeth (one on the 18th of Dec. and the second on Jan. 3rd). We've fought through both of them...hopefully, she'll toughen up for the rest of them. Emerson is just about crawling...although she still prefers to roll everywhere she goes! She's working on pulling up - maybe she'll skip crawling and go straight to walking!???

Her 9 month growth stats are:

--27 3/4 in. "tall" (55th %ile - the doctor is expecting a growth spurt soon)

--21.4 lbs. (85th %ile)

Here are her pictures from the 9 month photo shoot as well as some candids of E & W from around the house.

We visited our friends Carter & Lukas a week ago. Proof that they can actually play together nicely!
Being the lone girl w/ a group of boys can be tough...

Webb likes to try to help feed Emerson...

Webb's version of a hug...
Sporting the new John Deere gear from Uncle Duane & Aunt Doty...
Nana & Pappa Hissem gave Webb this new fireman bath towel for Christmas! (but he's more intent on pointing out his "owie").
Daddy took Webb to the park so he could run and run! They boy still wasn't tired...he must be related to the Energizer Bunny!

Both kids love to be outside...daddy likes taking them on walks!
