4th of July

We didn't have any big plans for this weekend as it snuck up on us before we knew it. I was going to try and take Emilee to a parade in town.. but they didn't have one.  I think there were less parades this year than ever.  Emilee spent the morning in CNS with daddy, where she had her first popcicle with Pay and then headed back home after lunch.  We spent the afternoon riding fourwheelers and in the rhino just to have something to do. Then we had dinner and a few fireworks.  She really didn't have much to think about them so since it was after her bedtime, we had a quick bath (that ended nicely) and then headed to bed. Emilee did wake up this morning with a runny nose so I was kind of glad we didn't have many plans.

This is a bucket I plan on using for drinks at her birthday party that just seemed to be so much fun to her.


Getting ready to go riding


Going through the mud with Granny


driving through the edge of the pond...  if you look close she really doesn't care because she has her cup turned up and it just drinking away.


I used a spray-on sun screen with I think she rubbed in her eyes as she was getting tired so she looks miserable, but really was just as happy as always.


A few sparklers to celebrate



She didn't care too much for them so we just watched Tucker and Drelan set of a few bigger ones. We didn't 'go' and watch any big displays because they all started about an hour and a half after bedtime... maybe next year


Her bath was quicker than expected.  She bumped her face on the side of the bath tub...  I picked her up and grabbed a towel and realized that my pants and the bath tub were not friends. All I could do was make sure she didn't hit her head.  Everyone thought it was funny and quickly took her mind off of the bo bo.

Using a spoon

At Emilee's ECI appointment last Friday I was asked how she does with a spoon.  Well...  since she has been eating table food, we don't really use a spoon..  so she said that we should try to start letting her use a spoon...  this is what happens. =)

Taking steps video again

I can't put both videos in the same post.  They will take you to Emilee's shutterfly page (which I'm way too far behind on to try and apologize for) But enjoy the videos.  They are from July 1st.

playing in the water

Yesterday evening after the rain Emilee still wanted to play in the cozy coupe. It had water in it but it was close enough to bath time. =) (No, she didn't take a bath in it... she played in it and then went straight to the bath tub.)


After she played in the water that was in the seat once she sat down it was dried, but then she found some more in the back.


She would splash, giggle and then look at us to make sure we weren't going to tell her no.



Kind of disappointed in the last two... I wish I would have focused on her hands.  Oh well.. one day I'm going to take a photography class and I'll learn all that fun stuff.
