First tooth!


Yesterday Emma turned 9 months old and her first tooth broke through! She's got another one right next to it that seems like it'll be out any day now as well. I really can't believe she's already 9 months old! Time sure is going fast! This week was pretty quiet with it being a 4 day workweek which was nice. On Thursday Caitlin spent the day with Nana Bev and she seemed to have fun. When she got home she was exhausted and fell asleep around 7:00PM and didn't wake up until 7:30 the next morning! She played outside in the pool, went for a walk and had a tea party among other things. :)

This weekend was fairly quiet. Yesterday Toni took Caitlin to a gymnastics class which she didn't seem to enjoy and unfortunately acted up so badly that Toni took her home early. :( Today we went to church and once Caitlin stopped crying when we dropped her off in the playroom, she had a lot of fun. Emma was her usual happy, smiling self. :)

I really can't believe how fast time is going. With today being 9/11, I couldn't help but think about where my life was 10 years ago and how different it is today. My life is definitely better today than it was back then and I can't get over how much things have changed. Caitlin is getting so grown up and every day lately has been saying 3 things to me when she gets home. 1) She asks if the ants bit me because she got bit by a fire ant. 2) She asks if the bee stung me today because last week I was stung by a bee. 3) She asks if I went to the Doctor today and then says that my Doctor is mad at her. She says this because the morning I had my kidney scan we dropped her off at school and she wanted to go to the Doctor with me. We tried explaining to her that she'd have more fun at school but somehow she took it as the Doctor was mad at her. Every night I tell her that I wasn't bitten by a fire ant and wasn't stung by a bee and she says she's happy to hear that. :) I then try to explain to her that the Doctor isn't mad at her and that she can go next time. :) Emma is standing up all the time and crawling very fast now. She's got to be the happiest baby I've ever seen. When I see her at night and say hi to her, her face lights up and then she'll hug Toni like she's being shy. It's so cute to watch. Hopefully this week will be quiet. I'm on call starting tomorrow so hopefully it won't be a week full of sleepless nights. :) Hope everyone has a great week!
