we had a wonderful long weekend full of absolutely nothing...those are the best kind. there was practically a monsoon here on friday, but it didn't matter to me because i took the afternoon off and picked em up from school. i love doing that. after the rain slowed, we decided to take em to her first movie- "toy stowy. twee of dem." emily was more excited about the "big tv," memes, and popcorn than the actual movie. oh, and meeting auntie tina, who was watching eclipse, afterwards.
that night, donnie and i decided to finally paint the accent wall in our bedroom. i am not loving it. but we're going to wait until the new bed arrives before painting it again. mostly i just don't want to tape the wall again, since that's my super fun job.
it's looking a bit too baby blue for my taste. suckage.i can't even remember what we did on saturday, other than go out to eat. here's em in her 2nd patriotic outfit. there's a belt on these shorts. it had ladybugs on it. em was really excited.
sunday, the 4th, was another lazy day. em made plans for us to "see miss erin (the train conductor at the mall) and give her money so she can put it in her pocket and give me a ticket for the choo choo. and miss erin will say, "all aboard! choo choo!" em also decided she didn't need to eat breakfast before we left "because i will eat at the mall. i will have a cookie." em's plans for sunday also included going to the grocery store to get fresh peanut butter. this is one of her new favorite things to do.
how much do we love her chocolate lips?
a YOT.
yes, that's red, white, & blue outfit number 3. the dress was so cute, but this picture is not. since it's the only one i have of the dress, i had to post it.sunday, d had gotten up early to go running. since we had painted the wall where i normally plug in em's monitor, i had moved it to the bathroom...which means i can't hear it all that well. em is always so quiet when she wakes up from her naps and in the mornings. she will just lay there and play and not say a word. well, when d got home, he went to check on her (at 8 am) and she was standing up in her crib and boy, did it smell in her room! she had pooped (which is a very rare occurance). a big one. after getting cleaned up, she came into our room and told me, "mommy, daddy went running. i pooped, and you did not come check on me. so i had to wait for my daddy." she didn't seem mad. she was just very matter-of-fact. lol. so to make up for my inattentiveness, i cleaned out her closet (for 3 1/2 hours) while she went to the zoo with daddy.
she told me it was hot. and that all the animals, who usually say "raaaarrrr!" were sleeping. i was asking her what a tiger says, and she said "raaarrrr!" then, it was like a light clicked on inside and she looked at me and said, "all the animals say 'raaarrrr!' a tiger says raaaarrr. a lion says raaaarrr. and a bear says raaaarrr, too." doesn't she look thrilled posing next to this snake? not sure why d thought she needed to do that, but i do love a good play by play :o).
