Happy Easter everyone!
We hope you had a great day today

Emily and Sarah

I got Emily's spring clothes out of the attic last week and this outfit was in there. Michelle has given me so many clothes that were Sarah's and I'm so thankful for them! I gave this outfit to Sarah when she turned 1. So here is Emily wearing it in 2008 and Sarah wearing it in 2003.

Today is Sarah's 6th Birthday. Happy Birthday Sarah!!!

Emily is 14 months old today!

Emily is 14 Months Old Today!!!

These are her favorite books. They are pop up books and she has so much fun with them. I got 4 of them at a consignment sale for $2.00 . . . it was a great buy : )
She started saying ball, Bud, and bow this week. I guess she likes her B words!!!

Bye Bye Old Faithfuls

Well after using this washer and dryer for 13 years it's time to say goodbye. This is now the second item that we bought when we first got married that we are letting go . . . first our couch and now our Kenmore!! I washed our last load of clothes in these last night:

After two weeks of talking to my friend Michelle, researching on line, and visiting several stores to check prices we are now the proud owners of a Whirlpool Duet Front Load Washer and Dryer. They just delivered them this morning. I'm so excited!!! Now I have to go read the books on how to use them : )

Emily's Activities

I had to show these pictures below. The first one is of Emily hanging out by her toys. She had her feet crossed right before I took the picture. I just thought it was so cute:

This one is of Bud and Emily waiting for Joe to share some of his cheese that he was eating:

I also have another video to share. The first part of the video below is of Emily's progress in her walking this week. The second part of the video is Emily saying ball. Today was the first time I heard her say it so of course I grabbed the camera : ) You might think that the only thing Emily wears are pajamas but I just happened to be filming at night and early in the morning.

Turn up the volume so you can hear her say ball.

Emily's favorite things to do

Here are a few pictures of Emily's favorite things to do during the day. Here she is playing with the pictures of her cousins. She loves to take the picture of Chaz and Sidney all over the house.

Here she is playing in her closet in her room. She usually goes thru the toys and bags that I have in there. I trade out the toys in the living room every few weeks so she doesn't get bored with them but she always finds them in her closet.

Here she is playing with the legos and books on her bookshelf.

And here's a video of what she does when she realizes I have the camera out:
