Tooth-y Girl!

No pictures, just an announcement:

Gemma is now the proud owner of her own little bottom baby teeth... more like tooth.  We see the other bottom one trying to come out but only one has slightly popped through.  Scott is the one who discovered this wonderful event yesterday.  When he told me over the phone I couldn't help but jump around for joy, literally.  Aaaahh.  I love being a parent!

And Gemma has been such a super star.  She was a little fussy the the before and drooling but nothing too out of the ordinary.  We feel really lucky that the teething (so far) hasn't dramatically affected her... yet... (crossing my fingers).  :)

I hear that molars are really the ones to watch out for... yikes!

Revvvving UP!

Gemma is on the brink of crawling.  She's practicing a lot but still hasn't fully connected all the dots yet.  We are not in too big of a hurry since we know when she starts there will be no stopping her!  :)

Laugh Attack!

Scotty has a way to really make Gemma laugh.  This video cracks me up!  Watch out for the surprise ending!  LOL!  :)

Grandparents!!! More

We had a wonderful time with Scott's parents.  Gemma got to spend a lot of time with her Grandma and Grandpa Krotz and it was sad to see them go...  Before they left they helped us with a lot of house projects like making curtains for Gemma's room (in the picture).

When Gemma turns 1 (in 4 months!) we hope to spend some time in Nebraska so that Gemma can meet her Great Grandma Krotz.

Grandparents!

Grandma and Grandpa Krotz are visiting us from Chicago. After some craziness from the airlines, where they had to stay the night over in Denver, they finally made it to sunny CA yesterday! :)

Gemma has been really sick with a stomach virus all week (not fun) and she's finally starting to recover - just in time to give Grandma and Grandpa some smiles. :)

Bed head

She keeps good company! :)

She's all about her tongue these days. Here we are posing for daddy as we channel Gene Simmons. :)
