Fall is upon us...

What a great summer we've had! I've throughly enjoyed my time with Emily and being home with her. I mean, what a cutie pie!

But, it's off to pre-school next week for her though. Its actually a "mom's morning out" type deal at a local baptist church call Sonshine Learning Center.  They have a baby class (only 6 babies with 2 adults) and I've had lots of friends with their kids there that love it so we decided to sign up.  She'll go Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday 8:30am-11:30am. I know she's really young for "school" but it'll be good for us (I hope, *sniff*).  I'll have a chance to go get my hair did, run errands, doctor appointments, stuff like that so that when we get our afternoons together we'll be able to spend quality time with each other.  I'm scared excited for this next little step for our baby girl.
Of course she has a first day of school outfit that I'll post next week but I had to take a picture of this sweet post card we got in the mail yesterday after our walk from her teachers.  It says: Emily, we are looking forward to a great year at Sonshine! Looking forward to seeing you on Tuesday, September 4. Laurie and Suzy.  I of course got a little teary over it but it made me feel so much better about our decision.  I just can't believe its already September!
Along with fall comes football season too! Emily is all ready with her NC State gear and we're looking forward to cheering them on tonight! Go Wolfpack!!


She's working on her wolfpack hand signal :)  She has found that her hands are connected to her brain though and looks at them intently as she moves them. Its so cute to watch. I can't wait for her to find her feet! 
Here she is too with her Brother Monkey. She's almost bigger than him! She likes to hug him and laugh at him when i'm making the bed in the mornings.  I'm still not sleeping with him by the way!
