All things Emma

Life is raging on for us. We have been busy doing lots of fun things so I'm going to try to sum up everything in this one post. Take a deep breath and lets get started.

Emma is in love with all things she can climb on. This is a big

accomplishment. She used to try and get so frustrated at this car!

Is the cutest lotion lover out there. She is completely

obsessed with lotion bottles which she calls "baba"

"This NOT the lotion that is squeezed

out all over the carpet...that's the lotion

Daisy was playing with"

This how most of the pictures I take are ending up.

What happened to my sweet girl who would pose?

We went to the pumpkin patch where we experienced

our second major temper tantrum...(but she happened to

love the tractor!). "No dad I am STAYING ON!"

"I LOVE playing in my crib now!"

"...but still won't sleep in it"

still melting our hearts...

This past week I

1. have been asked (by two parents) if I was Emma's mom under kidnapping suspicions when I had to carry her out of daycare screaming her head off and wrestle her into the car. I was asked if "she was okay."

"Um No she is not okay! Does she look okay? I'm also not okay. P.S. mind your own business"

2. learned that while I was correct in assuming I would use the mom phrase "because I said so," I did not expect it would be on my husband. :-)

3. learned what vomiting sounds like and smells like at 60mph on the interstate. Coincidentally I also learned how to take apart and reassemble the princess' mega car seat.

4. learned that while my daughter might be "strong willed" as they say (ahem), she is the funniest and best dancer I know!

There is something about an upside down laundry basket that gets Emma on her soap box and gives her dance fever.
