the coolest baby around...

EmJ is almost 6 months already! We've been to the doctor for her 6 month check-up and she's almost 17 pounds and is 26.5 inches long! She's in the 75th percentile for her weight and the 90th for her height! She's definitely taking after her daddy in the height area - and Jeff couldn't be more proud!
We've recently made a new purchase for EmJ - it's called a "Jump-A-Roo" and it's basically a Johnny Jump-Up with a stand (instead of a door frame since we don't really have those!) :o) She absolutely ADORES it! Mom loves it too cause EmJ will jump, jump, jump and keep herself quite entertained for awhile. Jeff wasn't opposed to this new toy cause he thinks it's never to early to get started jumping!
EmJ got to go swimming for the first time just a few days ago. We went with her boyfriend, Nate (and his mom, Crystle - Maren's friend), and they had a blast! We'll have to go again with the dad's so we can get pictures of them in the pool together. She loved the water - I figured she would cause she really enjoys bath time!
We just can't get enough of this adorable little girl we get to call our own. She never fails to make me laugh - and she's now at the point where she knows if she does something that makes us laugh and she'll just do it over and over again. But hey, if something we do makes her laugh - you better believe we'll do it over and over! She's the greatest!!!

I love the new pictures! Babies in bathing suits are super cute! We'll be in CO in a few weeks, we'll have to do lunch or something so we can meet the little ones.

More great pics! Her little personality is coming through loud and clear and though it is uniquely her own, we see both of you in her.

YEAH for calling them zerberts! I am so glad to hear it's not only my family that does it either, that gives it a little more oomph with Matt! I can't wait to meet EmJ either...we can have an exciting baby get together when we come. We'll be there in just 17 days! I am so excited!
