Getting ready for the holidays!

We are extra excited about the holidays this year since it will be our first Thanksgiving together since we got married and our first Christmas to play 'Santa Claus'. We are getting busy doing some early Christmas present shopping! Courtney and I went to Paul Michaels in Lake Village, AR, and I fell in love with that store! I could have brought home everything in there!!! We got some great Christmas decorations for the house and especially for Emma Kate's room! Drew and I are itching to start decorating! I will post pictures of all of it once we get it up... if we can wait until the weekend after Thanksgiving! Courtney took a cute picture of Emma Kate that I wanted to share! I was so happy she went with us and Emma Kate just loves her! Of course while we were in the stores the cashiers were talking to Emma Kate and she was being a little social butterfly grinning and talking a little to them! She has such a social personality!

We are on the last cereal we have to introduce before we start vegetables on Thursday so be looking for cute pictures of that! So far, she likes rice, oatmeal, and wheat cereal, but cannot stand barley! Who can blame her?! Barley doesn't sound good to me either! For the first vegetable to try, we decided on peas so we will see how well that goes over! I'm sure there will be plenty of faces made. The color makes me and Drew both cringe it looks so nasty but maybe she will like it!

She is rolling over all the time, only halfway though! She is a lot more patient on her stomach than she used to be and is trying so hard to get her knees up under her! I know it won't be too much longer before she is crawling around! She tries to pull herself on the blanket already!

As for Drew and I, we are just trying to finish up this semester of school! Drew is so ready to be finished and graduate in December and I just registered for my last semester of undergrad classes! It is hard to believe time has gone by so fast! We are excited about what the future holds for us though!
