Emmaline's Baptism

Emmaline was baptised on Easter Sunday and was an angel. We filled the church with her family and friends and Aunt Nancy made her gorgeous gown. The service was beautiful and our sweet little one smiled and giggled the whole time. Here are the few pictures I got with my camera before the battery died. But don't woory, I should be able to add more pictures after the other photographers send them my way (hint, hint, Mama!).

Springfield Frog Jump

Happy Five Month Birthday to sweet Emmaline! We had a big Easter weekend and enjoyed the Frog Jump on Saturday. Our frog did not win (or come in 54th place for that matter) but it was a beautiful day spent with family and friends and too much cotton candy.

Longtime Gone

Yes, I realize it's been quite sometime since I have graced this blog with a post. I must admit that I have procrastinated because playing "catch up" is not fun. Emmaline will be 5 MONTHS OLD (crazy!) next week and we are having her baptism this weekend. Her little personality is starting to appear and she is even more precious/smart/adorable/best baby ever than before. She already thinks that I'm a rock star and loves to dance. I'm back at work (which is for the birds), part-time, but still. I'm having a hard time working while someone else gets to enjoy my child. It does make it a lot easier knowing that the"someone else" is one of my best buds who I know takes EXCELLENT care of her. Hopefully, this is only a temporary thing.....

The dogs are still adjusting. Riley enjoyed being an only dog when we spent this past weekend in Garden City with my high school girls who always give him lots of love. He looked at us like we were crazy everytime we climbed in and out of the window (couldn't use the doors....the entire time, but that's another story) but he really enjoyed the attention. Roxy is playing the guard dog role well but she is all bark. Good thing, because Daisy is all bite, at least if she thinks any member of her family is in danger. She's sweet as she can be with Emmaline and she still gets into trouble every now and then (see picture below). She'll be 1 in May so we can still use the puppy excuse for now.

Enjoy the pictures!
