Random Weekend Pictures!

 Merry Christmas! Mom said it was ok to start celebrating, even though it is not Thanksgiving yet!

 Someone woke up in a good mood (and it wasn't mom since this picture was taken at 6:30am on Saturday, good think she's so cute!)
 Thanks for the outfit Grandma Pat.
Wearing my browns bib, even though they didn't play this weekend. I'm a true fan!
 
 
 
Chris and Lou Lou wer out of town this weekend, so it was time for just the girls to hang out! We went to the park, shopping, and for lots of walks! Emma Clare has an awful cold right now (and ear infection...what else is new) and was wheezing a ton! The problem is she still doesn't want to sit still, and then wheezes even harder! Poor baby! But she was in great spirits all weekend, and slept pretty well (only getting up once each night) and took great naps. We had a great time, but are excited for Daddy and Lou to be home!

A Weekend of Fun!



This weekend our friends Michele and Chris came to Savannah. We enjoyed the 70 degree weather and walked around downtown. Then Emma Clare got shot out of a cannon. All in a normal day with the Mullens! (sorry the pick is a little dark, but her face is priceless!) We had a great time!


 On Sunday, EC and I took a trip to the mall so Dad could get some much needed grading done. Emma Clare just propped up her feet and enjoyed the ride! Everyone we passed was laughing at her, what a cuttie! She also discovered yogurt melts this weekend, which she loved. You can see in this picture that she is holding the bag...and she would not let me take it away. Thank goodness she has not figured out how to open the bag yet!

And this is what happens due to the time change. EC turns from a sweet baby, to a man eating baby!Sometimes EC is sweet, and sometimes she is hungry. Watch out Chris! Just gotta love this girl!

Happy Halloween!


Mom! How's a girl supposed to crawl?
 


I'm in full bloom!
 

 You have to be kidding me!
 
 
 
Happy Halloween! Emma Clare was a flower...although our friend's son thought she was an eggplant (cutest darn eggplant I've ever seen!) We went trick or treating with our friends, meaning we used Emma Clare as an excellent excuse to get candy. Don't worry, we only took candy from a few houses...
In other news, EC had her first week in her new classroom at daycare. She is no the youngest in her class room (by nearly two months!). I'd love to say she is also the smallest, but that simply is not true. She is doing really well in her new classroom, and is learning a lot! Her crawling is improving (she is getting FAST) and she has started pulling up! I'm totally not ready for her to start walking, so don't even mention it!
Oh, and good thing she is so darn cute because Emma Clare has forgotten that she is supposed to sleep at night. I'm guessing this is due to the 4 teeth she recently got, and it looks like we have a few more coming in! She has been sleeping 8pm-1am then getting up for a bottle and sleeping until around 5 or 5:30 and sometimes I can get her to go back down after that. You would think this would mean more naps during the day, no way José! At least she is not a crab because of it, but momma and daddy are sleepy!
Have a great Thursday!

6 Month Check Up


Emma Clare had her 6 month check up on Friday. She is 21.5lbs and 28.5 inches long. So yeah, we are above the 97th% on both. She had to get her shots, which I was terrified of. The last two times she had shots she got an awful fever and just was an unhappy girl all weekend. Not this time! She barely cried when she got all three shots, and was so excited about the bubbles that she didn't cry at all afterwards! Way to go girlie!! The doctor also saw that she STILL has her ear infection, so we are now going on 2 months of this thing! So more antibiotics for Emma Clare. Other than that, she is very healthy, hitting all of her milestones, and just a happy baby!

The picture above was from 6:30am on Saturday. I was still half asleep, so I just set up a bunch of toys and blankets and let her go out it! We are also listening to Christmas music, just to give you a point of reference. She worked really had on her crawling all morning (and all day) and by Sunday night we officially had a crawler on our hands. Guess it is time to start baby proofing the house..

Have I mentioned that we are totally in love with this girl?

Photo Bomb


Saturday morning cuddles. Love this little girl!




This is what happens when Daddy dresses Emma Clare. I say no bows, but he just loves them!
 
 

 How does she get herslef in these situations!
 
 
This one just makes me laugh. This is her yogurt face. She really does like yogurt, not that you can tell from this picture...
 
Would you like a bite of my cracker?

Pumpkin Patch!






Sorry this picture is so dark we took it with Chris' cell phone. But how stinking cute is she! This weekend we went to the pumpkin patch-well we are in GA so the pumpkin patch is kind of lame with just a pumpkins sitting around. We did do a corn maze and go on a hayride though!

In other new, Emma Clare has her first tooth! And her second is just about to poke through. Oh, and she is getting moved up to the next class in daycare. Although she is one of the youngest, she is also the most "active" and they can't contain her any longer in the infant class. They've had to start closing the door because she makes it to the hallway on a daily basis. She is not crawling yet, more of an army crawl/roll combination, but she sure is fast!

I took a bunch of cute pictures this weekend, so I'll post more soon!

Visitng Friends







This weekend Chris and I celebrated 5 years of marriage! I can't believe that it has already been 5 years! We have been very blessed. We went and visited our friends, in Asheville, NC. Sophia (Nichole and August's 6 year old daughter) was a great babysitter!! How cute is our little peanut (ok..maybe not so little).

Summer is quickly wrapping up! Em made the freshman volleyball team--I couldn't be more proud of all the hard work she put in this summe...
