Emily has not used any pacifiers for sleeping since Tuesday night! Night time has been easy but nap time has been harder for her to go to sleep. The first two days it took her an hour and a half to go to sleep. But she sang and squeeled and talked to herself so I let her work it out for herself. The rest of the week it didn't take as long to nap. Yea!
Tonight she finally had a small success in the potty department . . . but only because she's been talking for 3 days about getting some M n M's if she went : ) After reading and sitting for about 10 minutes tonight she "accidently" went and we jumped and cheered and carried on like a bunch of crazy folks, she picked out 2 M n M's and then cried because she thought she was going to get to eat the whole bag . . . so goodness knows if we put another roadblock up in this area . . . we'll see. I'm doing things I thought I would never do in this area . . . .livin' and learnin'.
Here's Emily with her new sleeping companion. She is wearing a top that my mom made. I made some shorts to go with them and Emily enjoyed wearing the outfit this weekend:
O.K. now for the weekend events. On Friday night we went to Jazz night at the aquarium:
On Saturday we went downtown to a festival and walked around looking at the different vendors, ate lunch, and let Emily play on the inflatable jump zones and ride a train. Joe got to do his favorite activity which is sit in the heat in the grass and eat festival food (hint the sarcasm).
And finally last night we met some friends to watch the fireworks. This was Emily's first time to watch fireworks:
And to end the evening with a little humor . . . Joe and I took separate cars to church today because I needed to go to a store near church and Joe took Emily home for a nap. He changed her clothes and this is what he chose to put her in . . . I love it! I told Emily, "honey I love what you are wearing" . . . and Joe said, "what's wrong with what she is wearing?" I love my Joe . . . and my Emily!
