Being mischievous

You know a child is heading for trouble when they have this look on their face...








And sure enough, Emma went through the diaper bag to find her new favorite toy, my purse.

Dress up

Emma and I decided to play dress up today so I could post and show off a few of the beautiful dresses that she has gotten the past couple of weeks. Turns out that I definitely thought this was a better idea than Emma since I pretty much had to trick her into taking each picture. This dress is one of the many items made by my mom.... Emma's just about to scream as I took this picture.

But, I was able to placate Emma with her lamb for a few more clicks. Connie and Dad brought this dress back from Vietnam. You can't see the whole dress, but it has beautiful smocking and embroidery.





And this dress (imagine Emma's eyes actually open), Tim's sweet Aunt Doris helped us get. It's really precious.








This head band just cracks me up! I swear I heard Emma saying as I took this last shot, "Dude mom. Enough already!"

A star is born

You aren't a true rock star until you have the shades.








Blowin' kisses to all her fans....

Getting ready for Easter

A Standing Ovation

Now that Emma has learned how to clap, every time I get her up from the night or a nap I enter the room to applause. Sure does make a mom feel good!

More fun at the park

Going down the slide.








Getting ready to swing.
