Four Months Old

My little baby is growing up way too fast!

Trying it out

Tyler brought in my favorite baby toy . . . the exersaucer! I love this thing and it looks like Emmalee does too.

Cute Outfits

 

I SO, SO, SO love little girl clothes, as evidenced in my two girls' closets!
 And these two were worth showing off. The strawberry pjs made me smile every time I looked at her. They reminded me of old man long johns - so fitted and cute. And this little blue outfit was just too cute with all of the big bows and cropped pants.

Such a cute smiley baby girl.

Fun at MJs

Monkey Joe's is one of our favorite spots. Especially when she has friends there to play with. Today she had Reese, Maggie and Aliyah! They ran and played for hours. Annagrace did take a tumble out of one of the inflatables. Afterwards, her knee kept giving out so she couldn't walk. Since the arm break, I have been super paranoid about injuries. So, she got carried around for a while, luckily it was snack time. And by the time they were finished with their snacks, she was as good as new.

We've done two weeks of dance class so far and she is LOVING it! It helps that she already has a friend in the class and they are so cute in their little leotards together.

I have a video of their first class but it isn't uploading right now, I'll keep trying.

getting ready for soccer

I bought her supplies for soccer today. So, we just had to try them out! I'm so excited for her to start in two weeks. I've started trying to teach her how to dribble, pass, and punt the ball.

Such a good BIG sister!

She calls herself the little Mama

Funny Girl Said:

1. Anngrace laid her head on my chest to watch TV and exclaimed "I can hear your chest!"

Me: You can hear my heart?

A: Yeah, I can hear it in your boob!

2. She told me she needed the money out of her piggy bank

Me: Why do you need your money?

A: I have to buy some toys.

Me: What toys?

A: At my toy store (she had several toys spread out across the entertainment center)

Me: You have pretend money in your cash register, go get it.

A: Mom, don't you see that sign right there? It says this store does not take fake money. Only real money

3. (This is for you Angela W.)

When I picked up her American Girl Doll, she had barefeet

A: I took her shoes off and put them with mine.

I looked in her shoe holder and sure enough, there they were! I love the fact that she was tidy about removing the shoes. She put them where the shoes are supposed to go!

4. A male dog walked past her

A: Grandmother, there is something hanging out of his hinney!

G: What?

A: It looks like a bag or something!

5. When I get older I'll like to eat things like meatballs, vegetables, pasta, and stuff. But, right now, I'm too little and I don't like them.

6. Wow Mom, look how pretty you look!

Angelina Ballerina

Today was the first day of dance class! She was so excited.

She is taking the class with her friend Reese. They both did really well and had a lot of fun.

Family Florida Trip Day 4

We had to check out at 10 AM. So, after saying goodbye to my family, we headed down to Grandma Betty's condo. We wanted to spend some more time with Laurie and Ryan and Grandma Betty before we headed home.

 

We tried to get some family shots while we were all matchy matchy.

 

We all went to Pier Park for lunch at Five Guys and then Annagrace got to ride another fun ride. This time she got to go with Grandma Betty.

 

And then we did what we do best - SHOP!

Family Florida Trip Day 3

 

Pretty baby enjoying the beach.

 

Somehow we all booked our beach trip on the exact same days as Laurie and Ryan! We were so excited to see them. It's been a year now and we have really missed them.

 

We went to dinner with them at Hunts - a hole in the wall Oyster Bar in Panama City that David, Ryan's step-dad, picked out. The food was amazing and I even ate steamed oysters! And Annagrace, our picky eater, chowed down on her Grouper Fries.

 

Then we all went across the street to walk around the docks.

Family Florida Trip Day 2

 

They tried to brave the waves.

 

Splash Splash

We went to Pier Park and Dad found some hair!

Annagrace took a spin on the Ferris Wheel with her Daddy and loved it!

And Emmalee loved watching her.

LOOK TWO MONKEYS!

And, of course, we hit Margaritaville. And celebrated Carol's Birthday.

Family Florida Trip Day 1

 

Joshua, my nephew and clone of my brother, acting out his inner animal.

 

The fam at the sign - a tradition.

 

Emmalee's feet on Florida soil for the first time.

 

My girl very excited to be in Florida.

 

As soon as we got there - we hit the pool. The girls couldn't wait.

 

Emmalee got to go swimming for the first time. She was just calm and relaxed. Just like taking a bath in a huge bath tub. Then we went to check out the ocean.

For dinner we let Annagrace pick and of course she said Olive Garden! It's her favorite place. So, even though we were in Florida, surrounded by delicious seafood, we had Italian.
