Miss Emmaline Turns 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Born 11-18-2013
Emma had a wonderful birthday. We just had a quiet day at home. I tried to make her favorite food for dinner, but she pretty much likes everything. She is such a good natured little girl.
We had sugar cookie cupcakes for dessert. She loved those!
Things I love about Emma.
*Emma is tender-hearted. If she sees someone hurt, or with a sad face, she will undoubtedly come over and pat you on the shoulder and ask "You otay? You otay? or Ug? Ug? Which is her cute word for hug.
*Emma is stubborn beyond belief. If there is a war of wills, she will win hands down every time. She is very good at letting us know what she wants or need.
*Emma loves to sing, and sing she does. Her first song was Let it go, which were conviently some of her first words. Riding in the car, she would belt out. "Let it goooo, let it goo, bable bable bable, Let it go! She also loves Popcorn Popping, and Do As I'm Doing. A few months back I caught her in front of the full length mirror, using one end of a jump rope as a microphone and singing Let it Go. :)
*Emma loves to be outside. Outside was also one of her first words. She is constantly begging to go out, and is never happier than when she is. Emma loves our Kitty. She constantly is asking us to draw her pictures of kitties. She frequently turns into a kitty in the middle of church and has to be taken out for loud pawing or meowing. She also loves to be a horse, and crawl around the house whinnying and neighing in an ear-splitting high pitch.
*Emma is very vocal, for many month she could say just about anything she wants, and she speaks in sentences.
* Emma is very clever and quite the tease. She loves to run from me when I want to change her diapers and say "no bum, no bum"
*Emma loves to help, and do whatever her older siblings are doing. She loves to be called a "Big Girl." and visibly grows an inch if you call her one. ;)
*My favorite thing about Emma, is how she says Thank you. She thanks everyone for everything. I can be sucking out her nose with the nose sucker and she can be screaming and thrashing about, but as soon as I'm done. She immediately says, "Oh, Thank you Mom." She thanks me when I change her diaper, she thanks me when I put her to bed, she thanks me for washing her hands or face, even though she hates it. She thanked everyone at every house we went trick or treating to.(multiple times) It is the best reminder in the world to be grateful, when a sweet little 1 year old Thanks you for a simple mundane tasks.
* Emma is beautiful. She looks like a doll. I call her my little cherubim. I love to kiss her chubby cheeks and hear her giggle when I give her butterfly kisses with my eyelashes.
(Sorry I know these pictures are horrible quality. I have broken down and ordered a new charger for my camera. Hopefully, it will get here soon.)
Emma got a big pack of Twix's from Daddy for her birthday. She calls them, and all candybars, or sweets things, cookies. Twix's(cookies) are her favorite!.
Grandma Stuart gave Emmie a doll and stroller for her birthday. She's spent many happy hours playing with them since. I can tell she will be an attentive mother. :)

We love you Em. You are the definition of Joy. We couldn't love you more!
Ellie says that Em is so chubby, because she is made up of every sweet thing.
Eleanor wrote her a song, that our family has sung to her since she was a few months old.
"There are blue summer daisies, and very cute babies, but Emma's the best of them all! She's cute and she's cuddly, and ever so snuggly. Oh Emma I love you!"
