November 18, 2007


Thanksgiving was nice. I really missed Emma before the day was over though. They went to Grandma Neil’s house for dinner. They did come out to Grandpa Lee’s in the morning so Megan and Laura and Terri could see her. She was cute like always, making us all laugh.
Black Friday we went shopping, brave souls we are. I was buying some stuff at Kmart, Brianna was behind me, waiting to pay for a movie. Emma was in the cart between us. She reached out and took Brianna’s $10 bill and Brianna said “oh you are wanting to pay, ok?” letting her have it. She turned to me then and handed me the $10 bill. I took it and said “Thank you” She then smiled and tried to take the pile of bills I had in my hand… she was trying to trade me the $10 for the $400 I had in my hand! She is a smart little thing.
We took her to see Santa at the mall while we were shopping. She could hardly wait for her turn to go sit on his lap. When it was finally her turn, she sat there and looked up at him, then at me, and was about ready to be down. I said “Oh Emma, Santa is going to get your belly!!!!” and she smiled, they took the picture and then she held out her arms to me to take her, she had enough. She still gets excited when we say “look there is Santa Clause” though.
I had to laugh this morning. Brianna said that as soon as she got up this morning Emma told her “Grandma” Brianna said “you want to go to Grandma’s house?” Emma nodded and said “yes”. So over they came, pajamas and all. Emma got into my bread drawer. She kept getting out the loaf of bread so I set it up on the counter. A short time later, I was in curling my hair and I heard her giggling in her bedroom and figured she was in there playing with the cat. I kept waiting to hear the cat hissing but didn’t, so I went in to check out what was so funny. She had gotten a hamburger bun out of the bread drawer and was hiding behind the bed, eating it! She was so proud of herself for getting away with sneaking that hamburger bun. I told Kevin that she is only 1 year old, she shouldn’t know how to sneak yet! She will be a handful when she is older for sure! I still laugh at her hiding while eating that bun though. What a crazy kid!
