Emberisms

Here are some new funny things she has said over the last few weeks. She really cracks me up sometimes.
* I was getting dressed and she walked into the room and said "Hello Bra"
* "Please have the magic spoons" (whisks)
*She was watching a little movie where it shows a word then shows a little clip of a kid or baby doing the action. It showed the words "Put your arms down" then cut to a clip of a baby doing that. Ember in a very angry voice said "NO BABY, LET EMBER DO IT"
* (after walking into a wall) "Wall, don't hit Ember"
* (when she was eating a granola bar) "Mommy get it a mate" -at least she didn't ask for one for herself.
*(while crying and throwing at fit) "I WANT TO BE HAPPY"

More Pictures

Ember still loves shoes. She was trying to walk in Daddy's shoes this time.
I love that this picture makes her look like linus on Charlie Brown.
Ember now can get out of her crib by herself. One day during naptime, I snuck in to check on her and found her like this. At least she was asleep!

Two Cute

Ember turned two last week and we had a low-key party for her. We went to a train park and let her play on the slides then rode the train and carousel. She has been asking to ride them both ever since. A couple of her cousins came too. It was a fun day.

So my cakes aren't very pretty, but they taste good. I have never been very good at decorating them. Hers was a red velvet and it was supposed to be six layers but only five survived.

Ember-isms

Here is another update on the funny things that Ember says. She has got personality coming out of her ears.
*She was taking a bath awhile back and had some toys in there with her. She turned around and sneakily crawled/swam from one end of the bathtub to the other saying "I'm going to get you cup...I'm going to get you."
*She has lately taken an affinity to jumping. Whenever she is waiting for me to help her with something she will pass the precious seconds by jumping up and down and declaring "Ember's jumping" Here is an example, this is from a wedding we went to a few weeks ago. She could do this for hours.



*She was watching a kids movie that shows animals and some words and she pointed to a Gorilla and declared "There's Mommy". Classic eh. The next image was an elephant to which she pointed to and said "There's Mommy". I don't think she should watch that movie ever again.
*We were sitting on the couch the other day and she stuck both of her hands in her mouth and was grabbing her tongue. I asked "What are you doing, Ember?" she replied "Ember take her tongue out." She tried for a good ten minutes. I am glad to report she was unsuccessful and the tongue stayed put.
*The sad day has arrived, Ember can now get out of her crib. Today was the first day that I went in there and found her asleep on my bed rather than in her crib. Oh the fun has begun.

I'm a model...

I had the illustrious Melissa Baxter take Ember's pictures when we were visiting my family a few weeks ago. They turned out fantastic. Hope you enjoy them.
