Happy Birthday 2 Emerson!








What? We have a two year old and a one week old!? Today was emerson's birthday and we had a great day celebrating with her! We were lucky enough to have great weather and went to the park. We gave her a "bike" so she loved trying it out. It is more of a workout for us right now because she can't reach the pedals, but hopefully soon she will be riding all by herself. I made her a cake and she of course only licked the frosting off. Nick almost gave her the whole cake and I had to explain to him that you only do that on the first birthday. After we sang to her, she decided to sing happy birthday to herself, only forgetting the last line of the song. It's hard to believe that another year has gone by. For the past year everyday has been an adventure with her. She seems to learn something new everyday and find a way to make us laugh. We can't wait to experience this next year with her, starting pre-school, getting through the terrible two's, and watching her teach carter all about life. We can't say it enough, but we are so lucky to have emerson in our life.
