Emma as a Big Sister!

Maddie is just about 3 months old and Emma is getting ready to turn two here but is already trying to be a great big sister. She noticed that Maddie's shoes were not on and kept saying "Mommy, Maddie's shoe back on". So she finally decided she was going to have to put them on for her. It was hilarious watching her try to get the shoes on and she was so happy when she finally did it. Well, she thought she got them on! Too cute!

Emma Turns Two!!

We celebrated Emma's birthday yesterday and had a lot of fun! We opened presents and had some yummy cake and ice cream and then just enjoyed hanging out with the family. Emma LOVES coupe cars and when we go to other people's houses that have them, she spends all of her time there and gets really angry if other kids try to get in "her" car. So I knew I had to get her one for her birthday and I was SOOOOOO excited to give it to her. She did not disappoint me as she has been playing with it since we gave it to her! Thanks to Aunt MB who helped me with everything and made Emma's weekend so fun! Thank you to all of our family who came and for the thoughtful presents....Emma loves them!

Emma and Maddie dressed alike!

She loves her car!!

The yummy (and beautiful) cake that Aunt MaryBeth helped me with.

This is the day after Emma's party but she is watching a movie from her car. Talk about the "drive-in"!!

My crazy girls!

I just can't get enough of these girls! They are so much fun even though they really keep me on my toes!! Here are a couple of fun pics of them.
Isn't she the cutest?Yes...she is taking dough from the bowl....just like her mommy!
Is it just me, or does she look like she is not enjoying this tunnel??
Look at that tongue! She is the biggest drooler I have ever known!!
Such a couch potato.....watching her movie with her favorite snack - pretzels!

Just Because They Are Cute!!!

My friend Carrie came over the other day to get some pics of the girls. Maddie was not so cooperative (what baby is) but Emma had a good time playing and posing for the camera. Enjoy!!

Maddie's Blessing Day

We had Maddie blessed today and it went really well. We actually didn't mean to match as a family but it's pretty funny that we did! Most of our family was able to come and it turned out to be a really special day. I am so thankful for such a beautiful family and for a husband who has the priesthood to be able to bless our children.

Summer Fun!

We have really tried to make an extra effort to do some things with Emma this summer. She has had so much fun! We bought her a cheap $10 pool and she has loved splashing around in it. We have also taken her to the park and just had a good time! We love our little girls!

More Pics of Maddie!

She is just too cute not to share with you. Don't you just love sleeping babies? So far she is an amazing baby who just does the normal baby things......minus the intense spitting up. But we'll take that over the crying we had with Emma!
