Lazy Summer Days

It's harder to update this blog when the weather outside has been so spectacular. Coming off of a really cold and wet spring, the warm, sunny days of the past few weeks have been amazing. And we have been soaking up every minute we can under the sun.

Here's just a peak at some of the things we've been up to in the last few weeks.

Emma absolutely LOVES her water table. We have one at our house along with one at "Ga's" house. A typical day usually consists of three outfit changes!

Emma also discovered that her beloved ice cream truck from the Outer Banks also visits grandma's house. And best of all they have the green turtle popsicles she so loves. What a big girl she is getting to be!

She also loves a big scoop of vanilla ice cream, topped with berries (raspberries are her favorite) with a little dollop of cool whip. Yum!

Emma attended her 3rd pride parade this year in support of her Aunt Nee Nee. Emma's is lucky to be surrounded by so many people that love her - and she loves when her Aunt Nee Nee comes over for a sleepover.

Poor Max - even though he looks a little miserable in this picture he absolutely adores Emma. And Emma adores him too. I have to watch that she doesn't knee him in the ribs, or climb onto his head, but for the most part she is gentle. And she still loves to sneak him one too many treats.

When we aren't outside playing with the water table, sandbox or chalk Emma can be found taking care of one of her babies. She is such a good little Mama, changing their poopy diapers, freshing them up with powder and cooking them dinner in her kitchen. It's really amazing to watch her little imagination working overtime.

And if nothing else, she's always looking cute.

Hope you all are enjoying the sunshine wherever you might be.
