We played out back for bit this afternoon (Emma was with a babysitter almost all day) She was practicing her lunges all over the backyard.... so funny!

Here is Emma driving her car and talking on the phone to Nan and Pappa tonight. She cracks me up with her purse in the back of her car.

I finally got a video of Emma immitating me at Stroller Strides. She is so funny when we go, she wants to do everything that I do. She was even doing sit ups on Tuesday after class.

The weekend started out with a day off for me on Friday! WOOHOO. As soon as we arrived in The Woodlands, I took off to visit some friends at Lamar. Emma was dying to see BB so it wasn't too hard to drag her around the school with BB being the reward at the end of our visit. We then headed to Nan's office. After I convinced her boss to let her leave early for a margarita with her daughter, we headed to Alamo Joe's for Happy Hour with the Lamar teachers. We then took off to The Gratlands for a great family dinner.

Saturday morning we went with Nan to see Chandler's basketball game. He was too cute running up and down the court but didn't want anything to do with the ball. :) Emma was all about the hugs with her cousin Collyn. She just LOVES her! She also managed a hug with Kyle as well. Although it looks like she is squeezing her to death!

Here are few pictures from our visit to the park a few weeks ago. Emma is absolutely obsessed with the swing. Every morning she asks to go to school, when I tell her that it is not a school days she asks to go on the swing. So, everyday it is either a school day or a swing day around here.

Here she is playing with Daddy at the park

She LOVES to go really high!

We had a pretty busy week here. Emma was back into her routine in full swing. She had school on Tuesday and Thursday, which she absolutely LOVES. Then she had her last day of Kindermusik on Wednesday. I had to be in meetings all day so Daddy was able to take her for her last day. They had cupcakes and the other moms even gave Ryan a hard time about showing "crack" while he was on the floor....HILARIOUS!!!

Then we were back to our normal bowling night last night... I must say the break was not good for my bowling average. Ryan and I both did really bad until the last game. We ended up losing but had a lot of fun!

I am having a bit of a hard time this week dealing with the fact that I am almost 30. I am really not that scared about turning 30 but the sound of it is just a bit overwhelming. Not to mention all the gray hair I have noticed and the fact that I want to have more children and I am not pregnant. It just seems so strange that when we go out people call us sir and ma'am. UMMM I don't feel that old. I even had a college student ask me to buy them beer at the gas station not that long ago. That made me feel officially old since I still get carded!! Anyway, I know that it is not that big of a deal, just a number right?? Somehow it still seems like a BIG one!

I have lots planned over the next few weeks to keep me busy and keep me from sulking about the big 3-0. I am attending several Mommy only events with my moms group and stroller strides. I am super excited about a hair bow class I get to go to in a few weeks. NO more buying bows that cost way too much!! I hope to be an expert soon!

We headed to the park on Wednesday for a little bit. Emma, of course, pushed baby in her stroller the entire way there. She even wanted baby to go down the slide with her and screeched a "weeeee" all the way down...too cute! This afternoon as I was working away on my computer I looked down to see her with a naked baby. She was wiping the babies bottom and putting (oh no!) baby powder on her. Luckily for me I caught it before she was able to open the lid. She had the Boudreaux's butt paste next to her as well. I can't even figure out how she got them out of her drawer in her bedroom. Guess it is time for a lock on her bedroom door.

Super girl!

Black Bear Snoozing...or "night night" as Emma says!
