Randomness

A whole lot of catching up for random pics I found on my phone! First ones are from Maine, when we went for spring break and went to Freeport for a day. Then a couple pics of Bryden and I having some special time at Busch Gardens while Grampa watched Emmy. Then a pic of Bryden as her oh so grown up self listening to an iPod and wearing her strapless dress (that has a strap, but shhhh, don't tell her that!) I LOVE this pic, she is so beautiful, with a gorgeous, real, smile, and soooooo in her element! Then, one of Bryden helping to repaint her room. She informed me this winter that she was not into horses anymore, and could we please re-do her room. So, in the spring we got a fun new quilt and painted the brown strip on the bottom of her room purple, and I painted some cute butterflies on the walls. She is definitely a better painter than Jim (sorry Jim, but truthfully, she didn't let the primer drip down the wall!)...Then there are a couple of her being goofy while helping to make dinner. Next comes Emmy, she loves to try forward rolls and her new thing is to climb up on the kitchen chairs...she usually stands, but here is a pic of her sitting and eating like a big girl! A cute pic of her riding one of those little 50 cent rides outside of stores is next, and then, there is a funny one of her facing a V shaped mirror. I took the girls to the Science museum one day, and Emmy got a huge kick out of seeing all the other Emmy's...kind of confusing to a little mite! And of course, there is a cute pic of Emmy all tuckered out! She has been a belly sleeper since she learned to roll over, and this is generally how she sleeps, I love it with her arms tucked in and her little piggies crossed...so innocent, peaceful and precious! Enjoy our girls, we sure do!

Emmy Getting Dirty

I was hosing things off the other day, and Emmy had a blast playing in the mud puddles and getting dirty! She LOVES trying to follow Bryden and she tries to get on Bryden's old bike and scooter all the time. It is so cute because she is so petite and has no fear of climbing up on these big toys, and falling a lot of the time, and just getting back on again! Feisty and fearless, that is our Little Emmy! She has grown so much these past two weeks, her world is making sense to her, and it is so much fun to see the lights going on each day. She has learned where some of her body parts are, and she is saying the name for them (though most of her words still sound like 'dada'),and her favorite is her belly. She will pull her shirt up and point to it and say 'dada'! She is such a joy to watch, though stressful at times because she is so fearless! The first picture sums up how much fun she is having in her element! Oh, and I am pretty sure that Emmy was a dog in her past life. She loves to play in the toilet, she digs in our trashcan in the kitchen all the time (and yes, it has a top on it), and, she loves to lick up any liquid that is on the floor, ground or table top(she will spill her milk on her high chair just so she can lick it up!)...yup, she is licking the water off the ground in the second to last picture! Enjoy the pics!

Disney Trip

We went down to Orlando last week for a Burger King Convention, and we got to play at Disney a couple days. We went to Magic Kingdom with Nanne and Aunt Chandra one day, and the next day we went to Animal Kingdom with Jim. We are definitely not big fans of Animal Kingdom, it was ok, and had a great roller coaster that Bryden loved (there is a pic of it), and even Jim rode it (he is NOT a big fan of roller coasters, but has riden quite a few lately!!!)...But it was basically a big zoo. And, Emmy got to see Minnie for the first time, well not really "see" her since she fell asleep right before our turn, but you know what I mean! We got to play in the pool quite a bit as well, and Bryden was doing handstands and Emmy loved floating around and hanging out on the top step. Oh, I almost forgot, Bryden rode Space Mountain! Holy Moly, she was just tall enough, and I didn't tell her that is was pitch black inside while on the ride, and we realized when we got closer that she was going to have to ride in front of me instead of next to me (single seats, but there are three seats per car)! But she totally rolled with it and she rode and LOVED it! She is SOOOO my roller coaster buddy! I LOVE it! Enjoy the pics!
