Happy Birthday to Emery!

It is truly hard to believe that Emery was born 2 years ago on May 29, 2008. I am writing this post now because we will be gone on his actual birthday camping.


Here's me 5 days before

Taken right before surgery



Jason brought Emery over to me to meet for the 1st time!

His stats: weight 8'7 and 19 1/2 inches


Taken in the recovery room (don't mind how I look, I was just taking in holding this precious newborn)



He was one proud daddy

Bare with me....I am super emotional!!! As I looked back through these pictures, I balled my eyes out!! We waited so long to get pregnant and to have a baby. Emery, you came at the perfect time, God knew the plan and we are so grateful that he entrusted us to care for you and to be your parents.
You are an amazing child...we love the little person that you are becoming. You have an awesome sense of humor and you just love life. You love being outside (anytime rain, snow or shine :-) You love to talk (gee I wonder where you get that from), and we love seeing you discover and learn new things everyday! You are a sweet boy who loves to give kisses and hugs and just plain cuddle at times (please don't stop doing this). I think about the first year of your life and the endless rocking that we did (people would say, "you shouldn't rock your baby"), well I am so glad I didn't listen because those are some of my best memories with you as a baby.
Emery Quinn, you are named after 2 great men, Grandpa Emery Huszar and Papa "Jerry
Quinn" Oliver, we love you more than words can say, thank you for making the last 2 years
so incredible.

Owen's 1st tooth

Owen has his first tooth on his bottom right(in the middle). You will have to look really close, he kept putting his tongue in the way but it is there. Kind of funny because I went back & looked and Emery got his 1st tooth at his 8 month bday too.



As you are looking at his mouth it would be on your left, right in the middle, good luck seeing it
:-) I'll try to get a better shot later.

Happy 8 months Owen

Owen is 8 months old today. He is changing everyday. He smiles and giggles so much and is such a happy guy. He really is such a sweetheart and barely ever cries. He should have his first tooth any day now. He is the most patient and laid back baby. We love this baby boy more than woords can describe, he continues to bring us so much joy everyday. He is growing up too quickly though, slow down Owen, we love you!

This pic was taken today as Jason is getting ready to leave tomorrow for a business trip.

CRAZY WEATHER

We have had crazy weather the past 2 days.....this is what it looked like this am with 6 inches of snow and the bottom 2 pics were taken this afternoon, it's all gone!!!!

Emery's birthday party

We celebrated Emery's 2nd birthday today with close friends & my mom. We will be camping next Saturday on his actual birthday. It was a great day despite the weather, it was snowing...yes snowing!! Emery loved playing with his friends.

My first attempt at making/decorating a cake

The food was easy and great!

When everyone was singing happy birthday, Emery kept hiding, funny kid!

Emery loved the cake :-)



Notice his left cheek (he was outside and scraped it somehow)

Amy & Shane with their son Cade(Carson was missing in action :-)

This one is out of order, sorry.


Presents, a monster truck!

Play date at our "park"

Today I had some friends over and we played at "our park". There were 9 kids here :-) Emery loved playing with other kids. He needs Owen to get bigger so they can play together.

Sienna, she was the oldest and enjoyed going up and down the stairs

Parker (about 15 months old)


Hendrix (15 months old)



Ella (16 months) and Emery (baby Owen in the background :-)

Carson (2 1/2) exploring the property

Emery & Cade (2 1/2) swinging


Amber & her daughter Quinn (3 years old)

It was really fun to have my friends over and their kiddos. We'll have it to again soon!

Weekend fun

Here are some pics from the weekend, we had beautful weather, in the 80's!


Proof that Owen was at the lake too :-)


I LOVE these pics, they didn't know that I was taking them



Emery's new skill :-)


Eating a popcicle in the bathtub, what a mess!!


This was so cute, Emery was trying to make Owen laugh
