Dream Come True

What a week! Emma turned 7 months old on Sunday--such a big girl. Monday-after many attempts, we found our dream home! God works in amazing ways! It is everything that we wanted and more--we are so blessed. We sigend the papers on Wednesday evening--so now it's officially in escrow. Now as for Emma....

Emma has swimming lessons on Wednesday mornings, and she absolutely loves it-she's like a fish. Goes under the water, kicks a bit, so cute. Thursday, I go to a group at church with women, and they have daycare for the 2 hours-and I had my eyes on the nanny light the whole 2 hrs...but she made it, I was so proud of her! That afternoon she played with a Halloween Jack in the Box type toy, and the first 2 times it just kind of surprised her, but the third time, it freaked her out and she was crying-oh so sad. Today she discovered that her voice echos in our room, so she kept playing this screaking game over and over. Along with the echos--she has discovered she has a tongue and makes may lala, mama, dada, baba, noises! A new food was introduced yesterday:pear. I have heard that pear flushes babies out, and let me tell ya--it's true. 5 poopies today when she normally takes 1 a day...hmm, maybe I should pair pear (hehe) with something binding next time! We are looking forward to the "Border Battle" this weekend! Madison vs. Minnesota, and then Packers vs. Vikings--GO Badkers!!
