My Princess is 2!

Today was Emma's birthday. I can't believe my baby girl is 2! When Emma woke up we sang her "Happy Birthday!" That was the first of about 30 times that we sang it. Every time we sang it Emma laughed and it was so entertaining that the boys and I did it all day long. Emma had two candles on her waffle. ALL DAY she carried around a balloon that my friend Rebecca gave me for my birthday (which was the day before. Thanks Rebecca!) Emma's best friend Ayden came over for a few hours to play. When Steve got home Emma opened her presents. We got her a chest full of dress-up clothes and a box full of dress-up shoes! Then we took Emma out for her favorite meal..chicken nuggets! When we got back we had cupcakes and ice cream with our good friends/neighbors the Smith's. It was a good day and Emma LOVED being spoiled. Here are some pictures. They're out of order. Emma blowing out her candles on her cupcake.
Emma with her gifts from her best friend Ayden. He got her more dress-up clothes and this Disney princess purse set with a phone, sunglasses and play make-up!
See what a diva she is!
Emma with the balloon that she didn't put down ALL DAY!
That's what a box of shoes will do to this girl!
All dressed up and ready to go!
Notice the shirt...WARNING I am two!
Emma's cupcakes. We stole this idea from Kahlia. (Kahlia's cupcakes were much cuter!)

It's a.........nother BOY!

It's a bouncing baby boy! (That's for Rebecca!) When I was in the ultrasound room I asked the doctor not to tell me what the sex was because I wanted to try to figure it out on my own. The doctor wasn't even trying to show me the sex but I saw something sticking out and immediately said, "It's a boy." I've seen ultrasounds like that enough to know FOR SURE that it was a boy. So there you have it!

Here's Emma!

That's our girl! Emma is at such a fun age. She'll be 2 in a few weeks. I really wanted a girl and I am so happy to have Emma.

Here are some pictures

This is a picture of Andrew at his "Parents" Day. Steve and I were both able to go. The kids had a cute program prepared with some songs, poems and then a story that allowed each child to have a reading part. We realy enjoyed it. Andrew "passed" 1st grade. He had all Y's on his report card (this means - Yes, mastery) except for three P's ( this means - Partial mastery). Way to go Buddy!
This a picture of Andrew and his teacher Miss Winward. She was the perfect teacher for Andrew. The other day he asked me why he couldn't just go to Miss Winward's class next year and do 2nd grade work.
Jacob had his big "See ya later Alligator" graduation party. Jacob also had a great teacher. She is a woman who lives in the ward next to ours. Jacob graduated from pre-school and is ready to go to kindergarten, except for the fact that he won't be five until September and misses the district cut-off. So he gets to do pre-school AGAIN next year. Not just one, but TWO pre-schools! He'll be gone every morning from 9:30 -12:00. Steve sees it as me paying for Jacob to go to kindergarten. I see it is a great chance for Jacob to meet children his age and reinforce all the things he has already been taught this year. He better be ready for kindergartn by 2009!
We are really blessed to have such wonderful boys! We love them (when thay aren't fighting , teasing, burping, yelling, passing gas, or doing any of those things little boys LOVE to do.) Just kidding we love them all the time!:)
