I guess we're staying...











Iknow this is a blog dedicated to Emma Bear..but I have to share!

Matthew got a new job!! Not only is it a promotion but it's way less stressful, so that is a big plus. A ton of people interviewed for it too. Matthew knew some of the people who applied and they were more qualified than he is but, he still got it! We're so proud of him. And here's the best the best part...it's non-deployable! Yea! That means as long as he has this job he won't have to go overseas! Also, Matthew applied for OCS (officer candidate school). He finds out in a couple weeks if he's accepted. That starts the end of March and lasts about 18 months, so we will be here for at least the next 20 months, if he gets in.

Back to baby...I've been trying everyday to get Emma to say "mama" or "emma" or "baba" or "dada" anything really. She talks so much and makes so many different sounds I know she could figure it out, we'll keep you posted. Anyway, we had another "beautiful" day on Saturday so we went to the park again. It was right before her nap, as you can tell from the pictures, she looks tuckered out. Also, there were so many "big" kids at the park she was watching them all play and run around, just sort of taking it all in.
A cute thing she's been doing for a few months, but more so recently is playing peek-a-boobear. She loves it laughs and laughs. I'll have to record it next time and post it so you all can see. Here are some pictures of her this weekend at the park.
