Nanny Time!!!

This weekend we all got some quality time with Nanny! Thank you Nanny for coming and giving us some relief from our sleepless nights! (She got up with Lili both Friday and Saturday nights!) We feel like superheros now!

Emma took this picture of Mom and me! I thought she did a pretty good job!

Nanny Time (continued)

Now for a few silly shots! Lately this is Emma in most of our pics, you normally get to see the best pick of the crop! We tell her that one day she's going to ask us where are all of her pictures from when she was 4 years old and we'll just have to tell her she has none! So, here are the silly pics........

Mom and I decided we'd give Emma a taste of her own medicine when she wanted to take our picture!

Nanny and Emma had a blast playing with her hair bows!

We love our Nanny!

Lili can smile!

This one's a little fuzzy but you get the idea! She's smiling!

What a little cutie!

Happy Easter!

We hope you had a great Easter!

Our growing family!

Emma hard at work dying eggs!

The finished product!

Emma loved her "earth" egg. She thought it looked like the earth b/c it was green and blue.

The Easter Bunny came to visit Emma and Lili! Emma got a My Little Pony and Jelly Beans and Lili got some little rattle footies.

Emma and Chloe had a great Easter Egg hunt at Papa and Mimi's!

Then they treated us to a little puppet show!

They loved the masks that Aunt Christie brought back from Venice, Italy for them! Thank you Christie!

Lili's First Bottle!

Emma got to give Lili her first bottle today! Both did really really well. Emma felt like such a big sister! Enjoy the pics!

Happy 4th Birthday Emma!

Since Emma's officially a big girl now and also a big sister, I thought she might have fun going to the "beauty shop"! We play it at home all the time, but today she got a taste of the real deal. We headed to the mall today for some special mommy and me time at the Libby Lu store where Emma got a makeover! We had so much fun together. Actually at one point I was in tears b/c it was such a sweet time with her, getting to see her play dress up, get her nails done, and all that girly stuff. It was really special.

Here she is at Libby Lu's!

She had a choice of a princess makeover, a rock star makeover, and some other ones I can't remember. Well, she chose the Rock star Makeover! Here she's getting her nails painted and then they sprinkled glitter on them.

She's getting her rocker hairdo! This pic looks totally 80's though!

The girl that worked with us was lots of fun and had lots of energy!

Admiring her sparkly nails!

For her makeup, she chose blue eyeshadow and pink lip gloss.....told you we were back in the 80's!

Spraying on the sparkle!

Rock star DJ Emma!

She got to perform Hokey Pokey on stage for everyone, but she decided once she was up there that she didn't want to. So, she and mom got pics together instead!

More pics of the girls.........

Sister love...

Emma's Special Gift

Well, tomorrow Emma turns 4! And today she got a special birthday gift from Uncle Brad, her own guitar! Or as she calls it a "tar-lin" (combination of guitar and violin, she's always called 'em that for some reason). Here's a pic of her, Brad, and her guitar. And following is a video clip of her trying it out! Enjoy!

Thanks Brad! We love you!

Here's just a taste of what has filled the walls of our house today and many days to come :)
