emily's 3rd bday





Emily turned three at the end of June. I know, waaayyy late on that post, but we've been swamped since then.
She had a particularly strong opinion about what she wanted on her birthday cake....a frog...
I don't know why or where it came from, but she was persistent, and consistent...so I succumbed.
She loves to be the center of attention, so as we were singing "happy birthday" to her, she sat there in front of her frog cake with the biggest smile!
I love this kid so incredibly much and I am thankful everyday for the joy she brings to my life and our entire family. Happy 3rd Birthday, bug!

Emily's first dance recital!!




Emily has been taking dance this past year and she absolutely loves it. I was unsure at first how she would do, as this is the first thing she's done on her own, without mama.

Yesterday was her dance recital and she was so cute and sweet. She was most excited that the "big kids" were coming to watch her dance! She spends so much time watching them at all of their activities, it was so sweet that it was finally her turn!

So proud of my baby ballerina!!
