Memorial Day Weekend

Okay so it has been a little while since I have posted anything to our blog, I know I know I need to make it a daily thing. Well we had a great Memorial Day Weekend. First we went to see Daniel's grandma that lives in Heber Springs on Saturday and Emory did really well on the drive down. She only fussed for a couple of times. We spent a couple of hours down there and Emory got to see her great-granny George and see her cousins Colby and Damitra and their daughter Madalyn, who by the way loved to see Baby Emory (as she calls her). When she first walked up to see Emory she just looked up at me and said she is so sweet. I thought that I was going to cry, it was the sweetest thing I had heard. Then throughout the day, Madalyn sang for Emory and Emory just loved to hear her sing. Sunday afternoon we went to Branson to walk around Branson Landing and found a couple of Cardinals shirts for Emory and found a Bass Pro Shops shirt for her too. Monday, we had the Keys' family cookout. It was also Daniel's cousins, Keaton's, birthday. We had a really good time. Here are some pictures from the weekend.
These next few pictures of Emory with her burp clothes hanging around her shoulders make me think about Lienes from Charlie Brown comicstrip. She just looks so cute with her hand over the burp clothes!!!!
"What ma? Can't I have my burp clothes as my security blanket?"

Madalyn just loved to get in the floor and play along with Emory. She just got a big kick out it. She would just sit there and look Emory over and just talk to her and sing to her. Emory loved all of the attention she was getting from Madalyn.

Sunday after Church, I decided that I was going to take a couple pictures of Emory in her blue dress with her new shoes that her great-granny George bought for her over the weekend and I got one of her laying on the couch and then I decided that I was going to see if she would sit up long enough for me to get a picture of her sitting up by herself. And I sat her up and sure enough, she sat up long enough for me to get to great pictures of her and then she started leaning to the side. I thought she looked so cute with her blue dress and those new shoes.

What a big girl, sitting up by herself! Canaan does the "lean" after a few minutes of being propped up too!

Emory looks precious in this blue dress.
