CAUTION: CUTENESS

We were teased with "Spring like" weather this weekend but loved every minute of it! Quentin worked outside Saturday so Emerson and I played inside & outside. Of course, I had to take advantage of the sun light & take pictures.

She was not happy that I took away her juice. I just wanted a picture without the sippy cup.

Fat Tuesday

HAPPY FAT TUESDAY!!!

Good luck to everyone giving something up for Lent!

Valentine's day

I really enjoy February. Maybe it is all the hearts, red, pink and glitter or maybe it is because my birthday is the day after Valentine's day. Actually, it is probably a little of both. We had a lazy but FANTASTIC Valentine's day/my birthday weekend. We had heart themed breakfast & lunch on V-day then Q grilled us a delicious dinner. Emerson made her Daddy a valentine and we all exchanged gifts. Emerson got a small box of chocolates and a Zhu Zhu pet. The Zhu Zhu pet, "Jilly" went missing the day after Valentine's day & has yet to be found. We have looked EVERYWHERE! I guess she will turn up one day.

Georgia on my mind

Emerson and I tagged along with Quentin on a business trip to Atlanta last week. My dear friend Jeri and her family moved to Atlanta last year and invited us to stay with them while Quentin worked. As we left our house I had that feeling I was forgetting something. It turns out I was forgetting my camera!! So, I relied on my sweet friend and not so reliable cell phone camera. We had so much fun with our friends. We ate great food and did a lot of catching up. Most of the pictures were taken @ this cool gym like place called Southern Prep. I would say we DEFINITELY tired the kiddos out.

Super Greg with both of his children @ dinner. All 3 children were CRAZY during dinner & I am sure everyone was happy to see us go when we left but we had a BLAST! Greg's face says it all. (Sorry, phone pic)

Grayson & Emerson being sweet the morning we left.

WOW! The last couple post have made me realize she has been wearing that "sweet heart" shirt a lot. I will cut back after Valentine's day

18 months

Happy 18th month birthday baby girl!!!

I seem to be having a hard time wrapping my brain around this. I can not believe it has been a year and a half since we brought our "baby cakes" home. Emerson is very sweet and affectionate but has become opinionated and definitely knows what she wants. She enjoys playing with shapes and puzzles & has become quite adventurous. Today her polka dot chair was in the middle of the room and she climbed onto the ottoman and flipped into her chair. TWICE!

She is the most wonderful gift I have ever been given.

Enjoy the following pictures of Emerson playing and enjoying her Muddy's cupcake today.
