Lu Lu is 5 months old

Our little Emmie Lu Lu Belle is 5 months old! 1 more month and Skatey will be 3 years old!

A lot is happening in our house. We are soooo busy that I don't have time to blog. Laundry is left in the dryer or chair. It sometimes makes it to the closets and dressers. Dishes sometimes are left in the sink...shocking. I never used to let dishes and laundry get this way.

I'm enjoying Emerson and Nathan to the fullest. Dancing, laughing, running around, and reading to them. I know that I should really get my butt in gear and make sure all the housework is done, but I honestly would rather hang out with them.

Em has realized that she can laugh at nothing. She now rolls over from her back to her tummy. We are waiting for her 2 teeth on the bottom to come. She gets to eat solids in 1 more month. I have given her tiny, like a dot, tastes of banana and avocado. When I put it on her tongue her arms and legs go crazy. She's going to love food.

Nate has discovered the words BECAUSE, WHAT, & NAMES. I hear because and what all the time. He really is interested in knowing who people are, where they live, and what they are doing. He's very observant and reminds me of a professor. He eats up anything we read to him or tell him. He has also mastered (in July) riding his tricycle and last month riding the scooter. He is trying to master the skateboard.

Skatey and Lu Lu are the very best of friends. They both smile when they see each other. I'm so THANKFUL that they love/like each other very much.

Jerry went to "Oh, CANADA" this month for work. We missed him so much and couldn't wait for him to get home. Nathan just went on and on about the "hairplane" that Daddy was on. It was cute.
