Go AWAY snow!

We don't have much to post this week. Today is a pretty boring day since it is cold and crappy outside. We were excited about spring earlier this week. It was 65 degrees on Wednesday so we took Emerson to the park after work to enjoy the playground and beautiful weather. Today we get the joy of 4-8 inches of snow and 30 degrees of cold :(

This is a big couple of weeks for Emerson. Her daycare providers are going on a vacation. Grandma and Grandpa Oberle will be here to watch her this week and Grandpa Kehrt will be here next week to watch her!! It will be a lot of fun!!! We miss that Grandma Kehrt will not be here to visit.

Here is a picture of our afternoon at the park

15 months already!!!

It is hard to believe but Emerson is already 15 months old!!! She had her 15 month Dr's appt this week and is doing "perfect" according to the Dr. She is 19 lb 14 oz and 30.5 inches long/tall. She had 3 more shots at this appointment. Emerson let the nurse know that she was very upset at getting the shots. After the nurse let her go, I picked her up and gave her a hug...she pushed me away and gave the nurse a look that could kill! The nurse even said she is not sure she has ever gotten a look quite like that before! Emerson stop glaring at the nurse until she was gone...JUST to make sure she didn't give her another shot. She took them like a champ but was not happy about it :) She is walking short distances and getting better and longer by the day. She is very proud of herself when she makes a new distance! She is learning new words every day and knows where her belly is!

This week is the Big 12 tournaments in KC and we did get tickets to the Men's tournament this year again so Bruce has been partaking in a lot of basketball! I have been to a couple of sessions to watch Iowa State and K-State play. Emerson got to go to one session too! What a deprived child huh?! Em and I wanted to go to the ISU women's game tonight as a friend had extra tickets for us but we weren't able to make it downtown in time. So we watched and cheered from home. Unfortunately, both ISU teams are out of the tournaments now :(

We do have a new Oberle addition to mention! Bruce's Sister-in-law Arlene gave birth to a little boy this week!!! Javin Scott Oberle! We are very happy to have him here and can't wait to meet him!
