Emme is currently 2.5 years old. She's got the darkest brown eyes and beautiful golden hair with perfect large corkscrew curls. She has Daddy's dark Cherokee coloring. She really likes watching baseball with Daddy, Sesame Street, Dora, The Wonder Pets, and anything Disney and Pixar. She's Mommy's Girl and can be very sweet. Can being the key word. She's full of energy and usually happy. She loves to help cook and feel important. She loves to make you laugh. She sings at the top of her lungs (so sweet!) and can recite two memory verses already. She can count to 11 and knows her ABC's. She's very sensitive and dramatic (I have no idea where she got this from ;) ). She hates to disappoint you. At the same time, she is 2.5, and can be extremely testy. She has an extremely large vocabulary and talks as well as a 3.5 year old most of the time. She's bright, smart, and hard working. She can get easily frustrated with a task (something we're working on). She's a nurturer. She loves playing with her sister and her babies (who are all named "Daughter"). She's a true joy, my sweet sunshine, and the light of my life.

Ellie is almost 5 months...already! She's been doing so good lately. She is "talking" more and more each day. She's recently discovered her tongue. Every time I look at her she's got it out wiggling around. She's trying to blow raspberries. She loves, loves, loves watching her big sister. She is a Daddy's Girl- flirting with him whenever he's around. She just learned to roll over. She hates the carseat (usually). She loves to be in the midst of all the action. If I'm in the kitchen with Emme and she's in her bouncer in the living room, she'll throw a fit until she's brought into the kitchen. She's got the sweetest chubby cheeks and the most beautiful long eyelashes (like her Daddy!). Her eyes are hazel right now and she's got dark brown hair. She has Mommy's light coloring. She's simply perfect.

And then...

Josh had a dream last night that we had a boy. Dundundunnnnn!

No, I'm not pregnant. Don't bother emailing to ask.
