"Emery Jane I Love You So....

Your happy smiling face

Is such a joy to look at

You make home a lovey place"

Ouch...

Looks like it's sunscreen season again! I hate sun burns...how embarrassing...

So Far This Year....

We have taken advantage of the beautiful weather!! The three of us headed over to my parents Sunday afternoon and lounged around in the grass under the Ash tree...it was lovey :)


Saturday, Emery had a ball playing outside with her cousins...I love that she's big enough now for Corinne to tote around...

Emery also had her first pony tail!! (well kind of....)

see it??


She also did a lot of hanging out with dad....

She had lots of baths in Grandma Porters sink...

AND swung in the swing at Grandma and Grandpa Porters for the first time!

She is such a fun age right now and seriously only gets cuter...I can't stand it!

And So it Begins!

My life for the next two years has officially begun! I started the nursing program at MCC this semester and it has been a change to say the least...I leave my sweet baby with Grandma Porter on Mondays, Grandma Pew on Tuesdays, Daddy gets her Wednesdays :) and her Aunt Eda (my sister) on Thursdays...I'm always home by 2 or 3 which isn't as bad as some girls have it but it still has been the hardest thing i've ever had to do! So needless to say, things are pretty crazy around here which explains the lack of posting :) I know that school is going to be a good thing not only for me but also my family...I have to tell myself that everytime I drive away and I know that she is in the BEST hands! But it really doesn't make it easy I don't think it'll ever be easy....Anywho! I'll post some new stuff soon I just thought I'd update real quick while I print off my 66 page Power Point for tomorrow! haha....ya thats right, 66 pages...

Emery Giggles!!

Emery LOVES her cousins! (The boys were pretty excited about getting her to laugh so its kind of hard to hear her over them but her expression is priceless!!)

Insta-Friends!

Dinner was a blast with friends last weekend! The kids got to hang out...Carter slept the whole time while the girls ate their hands and chatted from across the table...

We loved all the funny comments from "Savannahs grandparents" while we waited for our table...

"oh how sweet"

"did you plan that?"

and my personal favorite...

"are they twins??"

(referring to Leesie and Carter who are 2 months apart rather than Emery and Leesie who are four days apart) :)

We have some awesome friends...and I'm loving watching our little chitlins grow up together!

Leesie, Emery and Carter

Man I love this girl!

Emerys First Trip To....

Puerto Penasco!!

We spent the week after Christmas this year in Mexico with the Pews. Morgan worked with Families Helping Families while Emery and I hung out in the condo :)

We thought we could get some cute pictures of Emery on the beach but the sun was so bright and the air was chilly so she didn't like it so much....maybe next time!

The first of many family pictures on the beach i'm sure...

Look at our chubby little girl!! She's getting so fat....I LOVE it.

The kind of picture that makes you go "aw..."
