Daddy & Emma

They were goofing around the other night and I tried to get a picture without them knowing, but they busted me and this is what I ended up with. I can't complain!

Trip to Butterfly Rainforest

Emma's Grandma took she and I and her Aunt Tracy to the Butterfly Rainforest on campus this weekend. She had a great time, and one even landed on her head at one point. It will be fun to take her back when she's a little older and she can try and identify the different plants and butterflies. Other than me locking the keys in the car (second time in two weeks - can you say pregnant brain?!?) and having to call AAA (who thankfully was there and done in 5 minutes) we had a fun girls day out together.

Garden Update

Things are coming along nicely in the garden. Other than the need for some serious weeding and grass pulling, everything is growing well and we even have some baby squash and tomatoes showing up. Everything else is putting on flowers so we should see some more things soon. We're so excited that we haven't screwed anything up yet!

More Emma & Granger

Emma got to hold Granger when he came down to visit the other day. Can you tell she was excited? I can't for her to hold Everett, and she can't either!

And his name is.......

Everett William Banner

We finally settled on his name. I don't know why it took so long, but I'm excited that we finally know what we'll be calling him. And it's so cute to hear Emma say it!

Swim Lessons

For the last few weeks Emma's been going to swimming lessons at the YMCA. It turns out she doesn't really learn how to swim, but she's had fun just the same. Cody's done it with her for the most part, but I gave him the night off one time and took her. She really enjoys it and gets to kick, move her arms, climb in and out of the pool, and sing songs (her favorite part). Next week is the last week, and then her Daddy will continue her lessons at the river!
