Juddlo's

We have a little restaurant in Hernando, that is owned by a really sweet couple, called Juddlo's. A few of us eat together pretty regularly and we have enjoyed getting to know these wonderful people. The below pictures were taken when one of the other "regulars", who moved to Maryland, came for a visit.

Sorry so blurry, phone camera. Juddlo's menu reads "Emerson loves these!!!" under the chicken strip dinner. She actually only eats one but she does love them.

H-O-T!

Please stay cool in these 100 degree temps, Emerson is.

Forth

I completely forgot I started this a while back and did not post because I was to tired to write. WOW! I must have been REALLY tired!

We had a relaxing 4th swimming & cooking out then setting off fireworks in the cove. Emerson had a busy day so we missed the Southaven fireworks but ended up seeing some pretty good ones from our driveway.

very interested in the fireworks

At first she liked the "poppers" then, for no reason, changed her mind.

baby loves the water

Yummy, sweet cantaloupe

Hair bows & pony tails

Emerson enjoys playing with anything containing multiple parts. So, of course she likes packs of hair accessories and jewelry. She can reach her ribbons from her changing pad so I put A LOT of ribbons on her head just to have then ripped off.

One day she was playing with a bag of hair clips and I tried to put pony tails in hair. I really didn't think she had enough hair to hold but they did...

kind of.

I also have a drawer of random jewelry that Emer has discovered. She has found some "neat" things.

She is all girl and I LOVE IT!

sprinkler park

A few weeks ago I took Emerson and met Ashley & Ella at the sprinkler park in Collierville. The girls had a blast. Emerson was not crazy about the sprinklers but really liked the pond and hanging with Ella. I am now thinking Hernando needs one of these parks.

these girls love their juice

These pictures were taken June 11th.

catching up

I know I have been slacking on the blog and I am going to try to catch up. I have gotten so far behind that I don't know where to start. Below are pics I wanted to post from when she was still 21 months old. WOW! I can't believe I am that far behind. I am just going to dive in.

a tea party while still wearing pajama pants

She was eating yogurt and I turn around only to turn back around to this mess. How could I get angry at this face?

playing in the driveway

Yes, she is rolling around in sidewalk chalk wearing a dress.

Emerson had gotten cold after playing outside in the water.

This was taken in the food area at the Memphis Zoo. They we watching the monkeys through a window.

She wasn't sure about the carousel but liked it once it got going.
