Where better to start then to say he is such a daddy's boy! As soon as he sees Ryan his entire face lights up and he just squeals with excitement and laughs uncontrollably! Em loves to be affectionate and give lots of hugs and kisses...today he even learned to blow kisses. What a little Romeo :)
Emmet is really observant and detail oriented. He's very aware of his surroundings. Lately he loves bringing us books and have us point out what all the pictures are...over and over again. He'll study the pictures for minutes at a time (which in toddler time is a LONG time).
One of Emmet's favorite toys. Grandma and Grandpa got this firetruck for him for Christmas and he plays with this thing to death. It takes baths with him and naps if I'd let him! He loves to rolls it on anything flat and make car noises.
Here's the little tease in action. He knows he's not supposed to be playing in the blinds but judging by his face he's trying to see how far he can push us...stinker!
Cheeseball...flashing one of his toothy grins :)
Ryan went toy shopping for Emmet one day and brought home this little chair and side table toy. Although, it's turned into a piece of furniture for him. He sits in it and watches his favorite shows and under the book on the side table is a little slot that he likes to eat snacks out of. It's also a really good prop to get on the couches and whatever else he feels like climbing on!
Cool trick brought to you by Ryan....thanks babe.
Our rough-houser! He loves to wrestle and be tickled and will come pounce on you as soon as you sit on the ground. Definitely one of the boys!
Sweet big brother. He just smothers Wes with kisses and loves. I'll have to whip this photo out when these two are fighting over the car when they're both 16 and remind them that they do love eachother...because for a month they will both be 16 at the same time!!!
Future plumber! Haha! Em has been digging in his diaper for the past couple weeks. Every night after dinner we'd let him run around for a few hours in his diaper but now that he's been doing this we had to put that to a stop. Sorry Em...:(
Every day is a new project for this guy. He doesn't play...he builds! He stacks and balances anything he can find and makes it as tall as he can! So funny! In this picture he just completed his masterpiece and was pretty excited to show us! Nice work, bud!
Love that dimple :)
If he's not building he's playing with his planes. This one was given to him by the Walters'. He loves to load the planes up with laundry, toys, silverware...anything interesting at the time and push them around the house.
Em loves to wear hats...this one is obviously too small for him now but he loves to bring them to us and have us put them on. Then he runs straight for the mirror to check himself out. He does his famous fake laugh, dances, and even gives himself kisses. Silly boy. He knows he's pretty hot stuff!
Another one of Emmet's favorite things...boxes. He especially loves these cool ones because they have a cutout in them. He wears them around the house, sits in them and uses the sides as armrests, and even eats his snacks on them.
Soft blankets and pillows are heaven to this boy. When he starts getting tired he sprawls out and finds something soft to snuggle with...I love it when it's me :) We always know when Em is tired though because he starts rolling around on the ground or just lays there and watches cartoons in a daze. I love when he's like this. Whenever he gets tired it reminds me that he's still such a baby :)
Dad taught him this too...haha!
Such a boy. The poem "What are little boys made of " fits Emmet to "T!" He loves chasing lizards and hunting bugs.
What a face! This little guy is sweet but he sure is a firecracker (I'm afraid he got that from me!). My little baby is getting so grown up and hilarious. I'm going to miss all these moments when he's older so I had to take the time and post all this stuff before I forget how precious all these things are! No amount of photos or captions can truly describe all the fun and joy Emmet brings into our lives. We are so lucky to have such a crazy, rambunctious, sweet, and innocent guy like this! We love you Emmet Ryan!

Can you tell that I am usually the first one to comment on these pictures? I live day to day for them. Every minute I get a chance I am on here checking and looking at the old ones over and over again. I am speechless with the pictures of Emmet, they are truly a treasure. What a precious little man. You are so blessed. Dad and I went to Lowes last night looking for flowers to plant. We met a young couple with 5 small children, they were all so happy and loved each other so much. I must say, they reminded me of you and Ryan. What great parents you are. I love you all. I am so touched by these pictues.
Love, Mom
What cute pictures of Emmet. Thanks for sharing them. What a ham he is. He is growing up way too fast. Happy Anniversary and Mother's Day!!! Love you all!
Happy annivesary and mother's day also. You've really got a special pair in your hands! Emmet is truly growing so quick and learning so much. It's been sooo long that in my head he is still the same giggly boy who I'm not ready to let grow! Love the post... hope all is fantastic!
