Emma's Birthday

Emma turned 1 year old on the 20th and she didn't have the best birthday. She had to go to the doctor and get her shots which she didn't enjoy too much. She has discovered that it is fun to climb on things. I was making cupcakes and since our cupboards are so high I have to have a step stool so I got it out and got down the cupcake papers and put them in the pan then was going to put them back up and I turned around and Emma had climbed on the first step. I didn't think that she would go up anymore but she climbed to the top. She still isn't walking but she can sure climb.




I got the cupcakes made and I did a mini loaf size cupcake for Emma. She didn't quite know what to do with it at first. She picked at the sprinkles one by one and the frosting. It took about 10 minutes before she went for it and then she had a great time.

Our Home

Sorry it has taken us so long to get these pictures up. It is always crazy when you are moving and we still have a lot of work to do as you can see.

Home Sweet Home

To all who read this. Sorry for the delay. The internet installation took 4 days longer than scheduled, and Jaynee has been working me really hard trying to get the house ready for our first visitors (some friends over for dinner this upcoming weekend). The house is nearly put together, and once it is done, I take several pictures and make a collage with them so everyone can see what our home looks like now that we have space. This place is nearly the size of the last three places we have lived combined (West Jordan townhome, on-post housing at Ft. Stewart, and the apartment near Ft. Gordon).

I have also started my job, as the "glorified secretary" and I am loving it. Jaynee has been rather busy trying to make this place a home, and Emma loves to move about and up. She does not like to go down the stairs; it is funnier to climb up them. Well, more to be added this weekend.
