Sunday Morning

Our new double stroller came this week. Emma was SO excited about her "new seat". We have talked about the other seat being for the baby and she insisted that this was her seat. She kept crawling up into this side and even marked her territory...if you look closely you can see her entire bottom is wet. She did not have a diaper on since it was so close to bed and she peed in the new seat.

Emma's latest obsession is folding her arms. Evidently I do this a lot and she has been mimicking my actions at dinner every night. We have seen her do this folding of her arms the past few days and it is hilarious. She will stop mid activity to cross her arms. She is getting better at it, but it took quite a bit of work to do it prior to this.

See the concentration!

I love this picture...I think it is one of my all time favorites!

One of the few benefits of having our church service on Sunday nights is the opportunity for Emma to have more snuggle time with Daddy on Sunday. They laid on the sofa and read animal books this morning. So sweet.

Sweet Videos

Emma has started sharing the responsibility of praying before meals with us. She just came out with it one day and has continued to grow in this area. It is so sweet to hear her pray and thank Jesus for things.



Aunt Abby sent Emma ballet slippers that Emma has very much enjoyed. She just squealed when she saw them and after putting them on her feet, she started spinning around. She has enjoyed playing ballerina just like Angelina Ballerina and Aunt Abby.

Zoo Blooms

Emma and I have so enjoyed Zoo Blooms at the Cincinnati Zoo. Of course Emma had no interest in smiling at the camera and after just a few pictures the camera stopped working for me. That was very frustrating, but here is what I was able to get.





More Park Fun




We are trying to get some good spring pictures of Emma. She of course has no interest in sitting still for 2 seconds and smiling, but here are some snapshots from a recent park trip. The hat is new and she "picked it out". I had a hard time finding a hat for her age, but we succeeded! The flowers and trees have been just amazing around here this year!

Easter




This was our first and only photo op for the day. Emma was a "treat" on Easter Sunday. She did look very sweet in her new dress and enjoyed wearing her black shoes. I wish I had some great story about how wonderful our Easter was. It wasn't, but there is always next year!
