Big D's Oranges

Emma loves Clementines. She will eat 2-3 at one sitting. She calls them "Big D's Oranges." Here are some shots of her enjoying some the day after Christmas.

Christmas Eve

We had a great Christmas, but really missed Emily. She is coming home the first week in January again, so it won't be too long before we get to see her.

We had our usual holiday buffet with ham, shrimp, veggies, cheese, crackers, dips, and cookies. Emma was really into Christmas this year. She got to help open each and every present - hers and everyone else's.

Emma reminds me of Molly...

When I saw this picture of Emma that Molly took, it reminded of me of Molly at the same age.

Sunday Afternoon at Nana's

Emma spent some time with Nana and Matty today. She came over before her nap and didn't fuss at all because she was able to take her nap in Bobby's crib. She played with the cars and toys that Bobby left when he was here. We also played "cook" -- as you can see by Emma's picture, she can match Rachel Ray on her food carrying abilities.

Christmas Dress Pictures

Molly brought Emma by this afternoon so I could take some pictures of her in her Christmas dress. Molly wants to use one on her Christmas cards this year. Here are a few of my favorites. Emma managed to unwrap a couple of presents and inspect most of the low hanging ornaments on our tree during the photo shoot.
