Helping unpack

Emma had fun while helping us unpack by playing in the suitcase.






It wasn't so much fun when Annie joined in....

Yes, we are alive!

Forgive the delay! We've been on vacation in the sweet coolness of Colorado. Of course, I left nearly all of the picture taking to my family so I only have a couple pictures to post right now. Hopefully more will be on the way....


Emma during take off.








Emma on her first horse ride. She LOVED it. Her hands are up in the air saying "Hooray!"

Fierce!

I think Emma may be a fashion designer when she grows up. Here is the original top...








Voila! It is art!










And the back....










"Yes, I'm fierce."

A couple fun things

Emma has decided that she loves wearing my jewelery. Here she's sporting a lovely set of fake pearls....








Emma has also become even more fond of her floating boat, if that was possible, making it a recliner of sorts. She'll gather all her toys around her and then sit in the boat playing with them (kitchen items have additionally been a hit).


Timber!!







"Okay mom. Enough pictures. Help me up!"

Swimmin' for UNC

My aunt Beth gave Emma this adorable UNC swimming suit for next season. We couldn't wait that long, so we went ahead and tried it out yesterday. Could she be any cuter with her "cheesy" grin?!





Go Tar Heels!

watermelon

Emma absolutely loves watermelon and equally loves rubbing the juice all over her body...her mouth, her chest, and even her hair.

Emma being Emma.

We found Emma sitting in her raft in our bedroom. Do you think she wants to go swimming?

Mom and my aunt Beth were here over the weekend. This picture was taken at the Biltmore and although the place is beautiful, this shot captures the best beauty of all... ;)
