Emmy....Un-Plugged!

 This is our Emmy Girl with,  what I would dare bet is the last bit of her Crayola snack. I should for worn.... this post today will not probably put Emmy in the best light or myself for that matter. Yes, I do believe in brushing, what few precious strands of hair she does have, how ever, it usually seems to last all of but two minutes. I secretly think she is kind of cute in the raw.

 
I feel like a switch went off and over night she has turned into our walking disaster. Emmy has got us all wrapped around her finger....well maybe not Tate.

 The other day I had to make a phone call and with in seconds of me turning my back, Em managed to find the permanent markers. I have thought a lot about my reaction to this little event and how I was only feeling slightly annoyed but mostly proud of my little artist. Had this been Sydney or Tate I think I would have busted some caps, okay, not really. However I have come to the conclusion that their is a very short window of time when this is cute  and a much larger window of time when it is not. So Emmy... enjoy! I am not sure how much longer you will be able to get away with this.


Surprise,Suprise!


My Sister Cassie and Mom found a sweet flight and came for a short visit. February is not the most ideal time to visit Ohio but we still managed to have a good time. It always seems a bit easier to run on a little less sleep, spend a little more frequently and indulge in A LOT  more sweets when you have your Mom and  sister around. Most importantly they brought my baby Henry George along. 

 

Cassie is always bragging about how he is "The Best Baby". I always roll my eyes, "whatever!"...BUT it is true, Henry George is a killer good baby.


 Needless to say, Syd was in heaven, she loves, loves, loves Grandma Gaye and now she idealizes Aunt Cassie for her talent to fart with her arm pit, that's right FART. Thanks for the visit, it was the perfect pick me up for a cold February.
