Grandma & Grandpa visit

Grandma, Grandpa and Granny came to visit last weekend. Emma had so much fun with them at the MSU Children's Garden.

Reading with the statue boy:

Riding the sheep:

Playing lookout:

And helping Grandma getting great pictures:

Thanks for visiting. It was great!

Apple picking

Emma went apple picking for the first time with mommy, Mimi and Papa and had a great time. Papa helped her get into the trees:

And here she is pulling the apple down:

Here she is carrying her bounty:

Looking confused as to what to do now that the apple is off the tree:

And finally taste testing:


Thanks for a great time Mimi and Papa!

New talents

Emma has discovered a new talent (we aren't sure what she is going to do with it yet). She definitely gets this from mommy and Aunt Stephanie.

Emma guitar

Emma is now considering a career as a rocker, specifically guitarist in a rock band:

Hop on Papa

Emma has discovered that papa makes a much better trampoline than her "jumpoline":

Clean!

Emma has become obsessed with cleanliness lately. Here she is washing her hands with daddy (she washes her hands every time she gets near a sink):

Helping daddy clean the counters after dinner:

And finally helping daddy wash dishes:

This bodes well for us when she has to start doing chores!

Driving

We aren't sure where Emma got her license, but she sure is a menace on the road, or at least in Lowes:
