Just under 3 weeks until Emma is 2 years old. I look at her in amazement thinking “how did this little baby who slept all the time, not knowing much about the world around her grow into such a brilliant young child who has such a smart way about her and the world around her.” She is talking more and more all the time. She makes me laugh when she starts talking like an adult though. Last weekend Cassie and Emma spent Saturday night with me. They were watching Dunston Checks In back in her bedroom. A friend picked up a TV with a VCR and I added a DVD player in that back bedroom. Anyway, Emma was looking through the movies wanting to find one to watch on last Sunday. She said she was looking for Dunston and I reminded her that Dunston was in the bedroom where Cassie and she watched it. She said “Oh My God… Yes” like she couldn’t believe that she forgot that! She actually sounded just like Brianna when she is reminded of something. It was so cute.
Emma is a daddy’s girl big time. She tells Brianna “MY daddy!” and will argue with Brianna when she claims Daddy for her. She also gets mad at Daddy when he picks on her and calls out “Mommy… MOMMMY” so she can get help.
We took Emma to Flintstone Village. She loved it, especially the train ride and the little car ride around the park. She had a good time but didn’t have the patience to watch the Movie. It was a good time.
I have a new hobby. I bought an embroidery sewing machine and have been having a good time embroidering things for Emma. I am suppose to be doing some shirts for a craft fair but I am really bad about saying “oh man, that is cute… it has to be Emma’s” and end up putting Emma’s name on it. I made her a cute Halloween shirt last night… yes with her name embroidered on it too. I bet Cassie, Jarrod and Jordan are glad that they didn’t have those home embroidery machines when they were small. I am sure their graduation gowns would have had their names on it and maybe a little Precious moments graduate! Brianna told me she is afraid to leave anything at my house now… she might come back and it have her name on it. I decided that it could be a way to keep her from leaving things here… but it won’t say her name, it would say “please take me home!”
We plan on taking Emma to Rapid City for her 2 year old pictures and to pick out what theme she wants for her birthday party. I am kind of worried about her thinking she will get a pony like Emilee did. I told Jarrod if he wanted to be the favorite in her life, all he would have to do is buy her a pony. He laughed and said he has enough to spend his money on. It is ok, we haven’t anywhere to keep a pony unless I embroider a large dog costume and we try to pass it off as a large dog! Hey that may be an Idea… can you imagine how excited she would get over that “Pooh pooh”? My pooper scooper wouldn’t be big enough!
