Me and my matzah ball













Well, technically this is Samantha and Ethan's matzah ball, but they have passed it down after loving it for many years and Emily is very grateful.

She turned eight months old yesterday and got to spend it with daddy on Father's Day. In fact, she got a lot of Daddy time this weekend, as Mommy went to a wedding in Chicago. It was the first time she ever left Emily for more than a few hours so the big question is who would have a tougher time? I think it's safe to say Mommy did, but Emily was very excited to see Erin when she came home on Sunday morning.

She's still not quite at the crawling stage yet and it's possible she might walk first. She can practically stand on her own, but the only crawling she can do is of the army variety...scooting along on her forearms and even that requires quite a work-up of rocking back and forth. But, it's coming and then look out world.

Emily spent lots of time this weekend with Aunt Dana, Uncle Aaron, Uncle Jeremy and cousins Sam and Ethan at Grandma and Papa's house. The kids are really taken by her and Ethan, who rarely shows emotion, said goodbye to her last night by saying, "Goodnight, baby Emily. I love you." Talk about adorable.
