Thanksgiving Weekend

This past week Emerson enjoyed her first Thanksgiving! She dined on bits of turkey, mashed potatoes, and squash. The next day she also experienced her first day after Thanksgiving sales as her and Mommy headed out in search of bargains.

Mommy, Daddy, and Emerson spent this past weekend at Grandma and Grandpa Hubbell's. She had the chance to spend a lot of time with her cousins and aunties and uncles too.

We went to the "Home for the Holiday's" parade in Downtown Cloquet on Saturday night, though it was a bit too chilly for her to be out there the entire time. We think she enjoys all of the attention she gets, plus it's nice for her to see some faces other than Mommy and Daddy's all of the time.

Macy's Holiday Display

The top picture is of Emerson and Ava as we visited the Macy's Holiday Display. Emerson enjoyed looking at all of the lights and animated characters. The bottom picture is Emerson's latest infatuation. She doesn't stick her tongue all the way out, but rests it in between her lips. Too silly.

Tonight she tried shredded cheese and whole wheat noodles for the first time. She was a big fan of the cheese...the noodles...not so much.

Emerson is 8 Months Old!

Today our Emerson turns 8 months old! It is incredible to see just how much she's changed in a short amount of time. She is working on her 3rd tooth right now, which has just cracked the surface of her gum. She's also trying to master the art of crawling, but once she's up on all fours all she get do is rock back & forth. She keeps us constantly entertained with her smiles and silly antics!

Emerson is winding down after another fun weekend with Mommy & Daddy. She has fully mastered sitting up and seems to be on the verge of crawling. She's able to get up on all fours, but can't seem to get her legs and arms to work together!
Here are a few pictures of Emerson modeling her new hat from H & M.
