Emily is 2!!

Emily turned 2 January 5th!  We love our little girl and are so thankful for her!


When I think of describing her, many words come to mind...

Happy-Emily is such a happy toddler.  Her smile comes so easily and just shines so brightly!



Independent-Emily's most frequent phrase has to be "I do it".  She is SUPER independent and wants to do everything on her own.  Even little things like holding my hand while walking in a parking lot or across the street she fights.  She fights riding in the grocery cart while I shop.  I tell you what-this girl gives us a run for our money.

Lovable- Something I absolutely love about Emily is that she is a cuddly little girl.  She always wants to "rocky" before she naps or goes to bed at night.  She will cuddle right in and want us to sing to her. Her two favorites songs are Jesus Loves Me and Butterfly (If I were a Butterfly).  The other thing that I love is that she always has to give hug/kiss before saying goodbye.  If not, she is very distraught and will just cry hug/kiss, hug/kiss.

Stubborn- I am sure every kid is this way to a certain point-wants their own way.

Silly- Emily is such a goofy little kid.  She makes us laugh so much and bring much entertainment to
          our house.

 Busy-She is always on the go.  She keeps us parents hopping...

Cute- No need for explanation!


A few facts about Emily:
Emily is a super fun child. She loves her sisters so much, She has rough love with Anna at this point.  She is Megan's little sidekick, and although they have their moments, they do have a lot of fun playing together.  She always tries to keep up with Megan the best she can.  She wants to be involved in everything that is happening...doesn't ever want to be left out.   She is talking very well now and loves to talk.  She also LOVES singing and has just recently started learning most of the words to the songs we sing frequently. We worked a little on potty training and she does pretty well with it (Not potty trained yet, but we sit her on it once or twice a day and she will go!).  She is way too attached to her paci (which she calls her "eye"...not sure why she calls it that, but her eye and paci are the same words. She usually only gets it at nighttimes and naptimes, unless we are desparate!).  Her favorite show to watch on netflix is "Wheels on the Bus".  She looks super cute in a little pony tail, but she never keeps it in.   We love our Emily Grace so much and are so thankful for her.  We pray that  God would give us wisdom as we try to teach her the Truths of the Gospel and give us widsom in how to train her.  We pray that God would show save her and give heart to love him with all her heart.

And to end on a few pictures of her...
So fun to play with Megan!

Sweet sisters

Yes, I am even crazy when sitting on a potty chair.



Whatever Megan does, Emily does.
