Bronco Emma

So Emma now has a rocking elephant. I can tell we've got a little rebel on our hands here. Just watch as she attempts to ride this ferocious beast using only one hand. Either that, or she's waving at her adoring fans. It's hard to tell.

Happy St. Pat's!

From the cutest little leprechaun I know!

Big Girl

Emma has her own "big girl" chair now. What a cutie. She was so excited when she first sat in it and just kept patting the armrests and calling them her "baby" like they were little pink puppies.

Unfortunately, her cute little armchair quickly turned into a....

What a difference

This time last week, we were layered up and feeling frosty. Emma had her cowboy boots and mittens on to keep from freezing her cute little toes and fingers off.

This week....

It's bare feet Baby!

Oh, and runny noses too. I guess that's what happens when you go from 8 inches of snow to 70 degrees outside in one week. The first of the daffodils bloomed yesterday and it won't be long before the Bradford pear trees are in full blossom. I just love springtime around here. Robby planted a Yoshino cherry tree in the front yard yesterday. I can't wait to see it's pretty blossoms in a couple of weeks. I should be getting back from Texas when the cherry trees are at their peak.

I'm REALLY hoping to see some of my beloved bluebonnets while we are back home for our visit. I'm pretty sure they aren't going to be out yet, but, one can hope!

Yesterday, Emma had a little Sunday morning "praise time". I'm usually taking pictures, so I rarely think to video things. I decided I had better take some time to capture on video a few of the precious moments of just every day living with the sweetest baby in the world. One of these days she's going to look back at this and say:

Why did you guys have me in a cage? ;)
