Fun times!

Well today we did something out of the norm, Emily & I went to lunch with Danielle & Chase. Emily always enjoys people watching like her mother so it was a nice time. The best part.....it was 99 cent kids meal day & I had no clue! Awesome surprise!

Another cool thing was that Ed let me out of the house a half hour before Emily went to bed so I could go to the library for a seminar. It was like pulling teeth but I knew that Emily would go right to bed because she hadn't napped much today. Thankfully that sealed the deal. It was weird to be in the car without her.....

Also, Miss Emily got a brand new baby stroller from her Grandma Gato the other day and absolutely loves it. She still tries to sit in it herself but also puts her babies in there and pushes them around. So cute! Pictures to follow shortly!

The girl who would not nap!

So today was completely frustrating. Emily is becoming more irradict with her naps again. I have had her on a schedule for the months I've been home which has been great......but now she thinks she is such a big girl and does not require naptime anymore. It is not everyday but just enough days to throw off our schedule. Today was one of those days. She got up at 7 and would not go down for a nap until 1:30. Seriously.

But once she finally went to sleep I was able to get a couple dozen muffins made so Edward doesn't go hungry!

Off to Grandma & Grandpa's later for more fun, hopefully she is much happier when she wakes up, her eye teeth are COMING!

It's a HOT one!

Emily was a crabby patty today but I still let her go out into the world. Her first adventure was to blockbuster on a walk. The 100 degree heat was not fun but the cool air at Blockbuster inbetween definitely helped.

Then Miss Emily went to Aunt Annette's & Uncle Kevin's for dinner. She had quite a good time. She really enjoyed the homemade Blueberry scones and Sean's really cool self feeding treat bowl. Although she helped herself to more than one at a time like you are supposed too. Imagine Emily, on a mini couch, grabbing handfuls of puffs and shoving them in her mouth. Hilarious!

Catie's 6th Bday!

Well on Saturday we headed out to Rochelle for Catie's 6th Birthday! It was supposed to be just me and Emily because Ed had to work but he ruined our fun at the last minute. He actually got out of work early for once. I didn't bring my camera so I don't have any cute shots(let's just say Emily didn't let Catie have all the fun w/ her ice cream cake). If anyone sends me some I'll post them.

Emily had a blast playing with the other kids. Her favorite party guest was Alfie(the dog). She kept going by his cage trying to pet him and kept saying "Doggie". Emily was so tired afterwards and slept the whole way home.

Welcome to Emily's World!

Because I have some free time on my hands I have decided to officially start a blog. It will not be very exciting but someone might think its interesting. It will be about Emily's Adventures. What she is doing that day, her milestones, etc. I will probably throw in some of my coupon knowledge as well just for kicks.
