CAUTION: LOTS OF PICTURES

I figured I should make a 23rd month post before she turns 2.

Emerson is so sweet! She gives lots of sweet kisses and tolerates all of her mom's many kisses. She was "reading" her bible one night and pointed to a picture of Jesus & said "Jesus." My heart melted immediately! She repeats everything we say & do. Coloring is one of her favorite past times. She still loves her books and we have started going to the library, which she really enjoys. We left with 12 books last time! She has also started singing. We have no idea what she is saying most of the time but she is so cute doing it.

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
