How in the World!?

Decided to help Mommy with the dishes.
First, she removed EVERY book from the magazine rack, and then managed to climb in....with her sippy cup in tow.

Emily has climbed into some of the weirdest places lately. I had to take a picture or some of you wouldn't believe me!

Emily's Party

Emily's 1 Year Pictures!

Thanks 2007! Welcome 2008!

2007 was a year to remember. Emily's birth (Jan. 11th) was a great way to kick off 2007. She has been such a blessing. Our lives were forever enriched. Everyday we look forward to the new things she will discover. As she discovers, we learn to appreciate the things in life that, in the past, we seemed to take for granted. I thank God every day for the privilege of being her mom. In the month of May, I changed jobs. I quit teaching and became a stay-at-home mom. I am so thankful to have the opportunity to spend every waking(and sleeping) moment with Emily. Thank you Jeremy, for being a faithful and loving provider for our family. The month of May also officially added a member to the Whitt family. My brother Seth married Steffany. It brings great joy to see him happy, and I don't believe anyone could do that better than Steffany. In June, we added another title to our names, and a member to the Prickett family. We became Uncle and Aunt. Cody and Kelly welcomed Ethan Christopher into the world. He is a BIG bundle of joy, and he warms our hearts with every smile. 2007 taught us that life is not about material things or acclaim. Life is about loving the people that God has placed in your life. We are thankful for the people that are sharing this life-walk with us. As we enter 2008, my hope is that our relationships only become stronger-both with God and our loved ones.

Christmas Morning with Daddy

We had a wonderful Christmas this year. Christmas Eve's Eve, we had supper with the Whitt family. We spent the night and had Christmas brunch at Seth and Steffany's house. We exchanged gifts that morning. There are too many gifts to mention. Christmas Eve night, we returned to Birmingham and enjoyed "A Highland's Christmas" at Church of the Highlands. It was a great program. Christmas morning, Emily opened her gifts from Daddy and Mommy. She was too cute. Later that day, we had lunch with the Prickett family. We ate lunch and exchanged gifts. Again, there are too many gifts to mention! There was much joy this Christmas. We hope you had a special Christmas too.

Atlanta Mini-vacation

We took a little trip to Atlanta. We visited the Georgia Aquarium. Emily really enjoyed watching the fish. We also had dinner with Ben, Amanda, and Baby Amos. We had fun catching up. Can't wait to meet Baby Amos! On the way home, we stopped by the Van Dyke's. Emily really enjoyed seeing Aunt Jackie, Hayden, and Cale again. We did too. It was a great trip.

The Great Pumpkin Patch!

Emily and Eli had a wonderful time at the pumpkin patch. Our babies are growing up so fast, and we are very blessed to have healthy and happy children.

During her spaghetti dinner, Emily became very tickled. It must have been something in the sauce!

We saw some special baby boys this week. We visited cousin Ethan (almost 1 month old) on Tuesday and Wednesday, and Eli (1 day older than Emily) on Wednesday afternoon. We had so much fun.
