Emily and her new friends


Emily loves to talk to her friend in the mirror when I am blow drying her hair in the morning. She has now discovered that their are three friends in the mirror. (I must also preface and say that she does know that she has a reflection but she was confused by the three.) Here is a picture of her and her friends. She stayed and chatted for 10 minutes.

Beautiful Moments

Today I laid down for a nap in the middle of the afternoon. (I love this no work thing) Emily was taking a nap so I thought I would seize the moment. About 15 minutes later Emily climbed up onto my bed and jumped on me. She just wanted to sit and chat. Landon came in 10 minutes later and laid down with us. It was so much fun. Emily kept holding my face in both of her hands, say she loved me and give me a kiss. Then she would snuggle/wrestle her dad and then come back to me for a hug and kiss. We teased her by singing. I would sing one line of a song, Emily would put her finger to her lips and "shh" me. Then Landon would sing the next line, and she would do the same thing to him. The minute he stopped, I would start. We were laughing so hard by the time the song was done because Emily was looking so stern with us. She just creates such love in our home. She is excited about "the baby" and is loving all the new stuff that is showing up. (ie. bassinet, rocking chair, etc) It was a perfect afternoon. I am looking forward to more in the future!

Dancing Emily

My sister Rita, picked up a skirt with a music box in it, last year for Emily. I picked it up at Christmas and forgot to give it to Emily until Sunday. She loves it. She loves to smack her butt to make it play music. She danced for hours. I didn't know that she knew to move her arms side to side. She skips and twirls. SOOOO Cute! I didn't get a very good video because she wanted the camera the minute it was turned on. My dad got a really great home video of it though. Enjoy!

Hay Baby Bowtique

My sister in law Haylee has started her own business! She is making bows, headbands and beanies for babies and toddlers. She is also making the beanies for adults. I just wanted to post the site address and some pictures. Please visit! The orders are customizable and the prices are completely affordable and really cute. The headbands don't leave marks on newborns heads, which I love. Great gifts!

Random Pictures

Emily looked sooo cute on Sunday. Too bad she doesn't always agree with having her photo taken!

I made some cute bows for her hair but you can't see them very well.



Thought I would post the newest belly picture. 3 and a half weeks to go!

My Daughter's Unique Style


Tonight Emily decided to try a new way of wearing her sunglasses. Around her waist! Here is the only picture I could get. (Running away from the camera is her new favourite past-time!)

My sweet family

Emily loves to cuddle. She has since she was born but just recently it has really become obvious. Landon and I love it. The only time I don't is when she gets annoyed with my belly getting in the way and she feels she needs to push on it to make it go away. :) The other night I turned around and this is what I saw............


New Haircut


The funniest thing happened today; my sister Rita posted pictures of her new haircut. Now, her haircut is really nice. The funny thing is that I had my mom cut my hair last week. Rita hasn't seen it, actually no one outside of PR has. The funny part of this is that Rita and I have almost identical hair cuts. :) Gotta love being a twin!



Here is Rita's haircut...... What do you think?
