11 Months!

Emma turned 11 months in Galveston!!!  We had a morning photo shoot then spent the afternoon at the beach :) 

Emma is the happiest baby girl!  She has added the words "baby", "good" and "ball" to her vocabulary and is still crawling crab/tripod style.  She started leaning backwards to help out when she knows I am about to rinse the shampoo out of her hair! She still eats anything we put on her plate - and she loves and devours food.  She really loves balls!  They are her new favorite!  Wonder if it is from us rolling her a soccer ball with every world cup game we watched??  She still puts anything small that she encounters on the floor or table in her mouth.  She fakes picking stuff up off the floor a lot too.  She cracks us up by fake eating things out of the crack between the couch cushions.  Her hair has grown longer and has little curls in the back - so sweet!

Picking up Babe's Chicken for game 4!



So, she was doing more playing than watching...I just set her between the guys for a pic ;)

Tio Horacio - aka Tata

Last Sunday we got to spend the day with Uncle Horacio (Ig's dad's brother)- picked him up at midnight from the airport (traveling from LA en route to Buenos Aires), then he stayed the night and spent Sunday with us! Emma was excited to meet Tata! 

Warming up






Back at the airport Sunday afternoon!







Can't wait for Tata to come back for a longer visit!!

Emma's Puppy Brothers

Our baby loves her bubbas :) Bubba was one of her first words - she started saying it a while back when she would see the dogs ;) 

Emma and Scout ;)


Emma and Ranger


Ranger & Scout on a chilly night when Emma was a teeny, tiny baby!

Ranger as a pup when I was pregnant with Emma! He was a sweet puppy - and he spent lots of time close to Emma in my belly since he had a broken leg and cast for months when I was pregnant.

Happy Fourth of July!!!

We had friends over for grilling out this year for 4th of July! Emma met two new friends :) from Argentina. Maybe next year we can keep this baby up so she can see some fireworks!









Uncle Albert finally got her to smile!
