Flower Arrangement & Hanging out with Mommy

I went to a fun class with a group from church, we learned how to make flower arrangements. Here is my stab at an arrangement, it was more fun than anything...

Also, below are a few pictures of Emma.

We are interested in the plants


Learning 'no touch'. The plants are now moved to a higher location!! ;) Way too tempting to not touch......





the girl loves shoes, and mommy's too!


on the move up the stairs!!

Loves to read!

Ever since Emma was tiny, I have been reading to her. She has always seemed so in to the books, and it has been fun watching her grow up and really taking an interest in reading. She will just crawl over to the book shelf, and grab a few books and sit down and flip through them. So serious about it too, with an occasional laugh at the pages. ;) Here are some pictures over a few days of her reading.

Wearing an oldie but a goodie

Emma wore and outfit that both Colby & I wore when we were little. Mom made it when we were little. So I had to take a few pictures...

So serious now...


Her hair is starting to grow, a little :)


Going to be a golfer one day!

Playdate with Anna Prather

The Maddison family came over to play. Anna Prather, as you have probably have read in some earlier posts, was Emma's first friend, literally. They had their first playdate when Emma was probably 12 hours old in the hospital since they were born 12 hours apart from one another. As always, it was a fun time with the Maddison's!


Sweet Anna Prather


Play time


Chain reaction of crying. AP started to cry, and Emma burst out after her...it was so funny!

Bess' Baby Shower

Stuart, Hunter & I hosted a Meredith girls baby shower for Bess. Bess is due to have her little boy May 2nd. :) It turned out to be a lot of fun with the shower, and a girls dinner out that night. And Courtney & Emma got to have a good day together too. Here are some pictures from the day...
