August...Picnic...Etc...

This is definitely a hodge-podge of a post and I probably should have divided them up, but to be quite honest...I didn't feel like it. Here are a few shots from this month...hope you enjoy!

Yesterday was absolutely beautiful, so we decided to go to Jacksonport and have a picnic.

Em getting a rock from Daddy to throw in the water.

I thought this was the cutest! Watching her hair blow in the wind.

"Hmmm, what's this?" She is always checking something out.

Her favortie part of the picnic was the cheetos!!!

Earlier this week I was folding laundry and it was quiet...you mother's know the feeling...when kids are quite then they are into something. I rounded into the living room and Em said..."I take ya pitcha (aka picture)." It was to cute.

After church one Sunday this month.

Cute pic!

Okay, Em got her first nightgown. We thought it was to cute and that night she wanted to wear her Camo Cutie hat and one shoe with it. This is her new "smile" face for the camera...very endearing.


And of course, I had to add the church video. I thought at the end I could get her to count for me but as you can see she wasn't interested.

I took Em to the Old Mill in Little Rock to take her picture and these are a few of my favorite shots. Hope you enjoy!

4th of July!

We spent the 4th at my parents because Ryan was in Arizona. We had a great time at the playground that morning and at the Harding fireworks show that night. As you can tell she loved the fireworks!

Rain Anyone?????

Ryan and I knew that it stormed last night, but never expected this when we got up this morning! It was crazy how much water was there.

This poor guy flooded out his car at 6 this morning. He told us that when he tried to cross then it was over his hood!!! Who would try to drive across that???? A tow truck came about 8:30 and got his car.

I took Em out to play in the water...

...and it was COLD!!! This is her standing in the street in front of our house!

On a side note...Em has a bad habit of running from you if she doesn't want to do what you want her to do. Ryan went down stairs to get her for nap and she tried to run off the trampoline...fell...and hit her face on the side of the treadmill. NICE!

20 months!

Emmie turned 20 months and I keep saying to myself..."how can this be?" She is growing up to fast and in just 4 months my baby will be 2! Okay enough of the sad stuff. today I was at my parents and my mom was talking to Em and telling her she loved her and Em looked at her and said " I wove (love) you"! We were all so excited so when we got home I had her tell her daddy that and he loved the surprise.

Our little swimmer!

Emery has discovered her new love for the summer...WATER! We went over to her friend, Claire's, house this morning and played in the pool. I put her floatie on and she just jumped right in. I was shocked. She had a blast and the pool is going to be a daily occurance for the next few months at our house! Hope you enjoy the videos.
