11 months old!!!

Sweet Emma is 11 months old! This post comes a little late because life at Patterson Place has been a bit hectic! But, our darling girl is 11 months old. She has the kindest, most generous, loving heart in the world!


Emma loves to share. She is in a great phase where she is oh so happy to share her beloved puffs snacks, pacifier, or toys. Emma also loves to be shared with--so if you see her and she shares with you, she'll love receiving back her slobbery pacifier.



I forgot in her 10 month post, to mention that for awhile now, Emma is a wonderful kiss giver. She is so loving and excited to bestow her kisses on anyone who can keep her attention long enough to receive one!

Which bring me to say that Emma is b-u-s-y!!! Miss Emma is very mobile these days and keeps momma hopping! She loves her toys and, of course, to watch Babar with Mommy, but she likes to do it while doing about a thousand other things, more or less. (I have also introduced Emma to Full House during our lunch time, and she loves it!)



I no longer puree Emma's food. Emma eats all table food (torn into tiny pieces because baby girl still has no teeth). Some of her favorites are cheese (naturally), grilled cheese sandwiches, and blueberries!

On the horizon: Emma is trying to pull up and has a few teeth on their way in and maybe, possibly has a few curls in those strawberry-blondie-locks! AND: Emma is getting a new house!






The Pattersons are moving to Nashville! We will close on our new house tomorrow (pics to come, I couldn't bring myself to post pictures of the house while the sellers are still living there), the movers come at the end of the week, and we will be in our new Patterson Place next week! Praise the Lord!!! Daniel will be working in downtown Nashville at the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission. We are so excited for this next chapter--and to celebrate Emma's first birthday in our new house!
