Emma's Christmas Photo Session

I'd gotten this frame a while back and finally put pictures in it. The photos go from 1 day to 1 year old.

We found this frame at Linens-N-Things and it's perfect for displaying pictures of her NYC/NJ best friends.

Tried to look cute even though she had made a mess.

We got the child "leash" for Emma but she found a better use for it.

The crayon mural Emma made on the column between the living room windows.

Another one by the front door.

She even drew on her beautifully painted table...

We purchased these bookshelves from Ikea and managed to fill them with stuff already.

Emma received this wooden mice toy from my friend Heather who's currently in Warsaw, Poland.

She took it everywhere around the house.

Heather also sent us the Christmas tree votive candle holder and the yummy smelling pineapple-mango candle was from Kay.

This one was pretty good but it wasn't easy.

It took a lot of other not-so-good photos to get to a few good ones.

She kept touching the tree...

Running away...

Playing with Eeyore...

Getting on top of Eeyore...

Leaving with my purse...

Falling asleep...

Twisting and turning...

Even started dancing...

Sitting on Snoopy...

Crawling away...

Here she was a bit more cooperative.

This one was okay.

Then she started clapping her hands.

At the end, I had to bribe her with raisins. As you can see, it didn't seem to work all that well either...
