A girl, a hat, and a horse

This is a long post but prom was fun and the concert was tons of fun!!!

Here are a couple shots from prom. It was two weeks ago, it wouldn't be me to post things in a timely manner.

Elly turned two two weeks ago!

I can't believe that my baby is 2!!!

This was taken in the car as we left the house on the big day!
I took donuts into Elly's daycare.

That night we went to dinner at Pizza Hut, her favorite. Here she is with Tiffy.

"Tiffy color pretty" Elly's words.

Emma posing AGAIN.

After dinner we went bowling.

She couldn't wait to dig in so she took the Oreos off the cake while we were getting ready.

Waiting patiently for her ball with a dirty face :-)

Aunt Jacki with her little partner in crime. She loved her M & M candy and Spongebob towel that Jacki thought long and hard about.

More bowling.

Mark and Jacki, Elly loves them, she talks about them all the time. Whenever we are going somewhere she says "Mawk and Dakki" often times she is right.

We had a GREAT day and I'm so thankful to have her in my life!

four crazy friends at a bridal shower, and...

Some shots from Mindie's Bridal Shower

You three are the best friends ever! I'm so glad that Mindie had to be my friend because we were cousins and neighbors and therefore you two others had to like me! I'm so happy for all of us. We are so different but friends through and through. Thanks for loving my girls as much as you all do...would you three please get busy in that department.

Emma is so thrilled to be the flower girl.

Mindie, you mean a lot to this little girl, thanks!


AND these little ones are just too darn cute not to post!

Papa lovin the youngest two girls.

more Emmaisms

Last Friday on our way to town Emma was gazing out the window and said "mom, what is in those fields?" I replied "nothing, the farmers are getting them ready so that they can plant" she said "well, if all the farmers would plant flowers then we would live in a beautiful world!"

That day when I picked her up from daycare her teacher told me that she said this: "Mrs. Ana, I'm never having kids" Mrs. Ana said "what do you mean?" Emma said "I'm just never having kids, and don't worry about it, I've allready talked to God about it" Mrs. Ana said "why not" and she responded with "cuz I don't like babies, that's it, I just don't like them!"

Can you imagine living in a world full of flowers with no babies???

Elly's surgery

Wondering where we are...

Not real sure about the hat, and wondering why she's leaving with a lady wearing a hat just like her's...

My poor girl's hand when she returned to me about 45 minutes later...

Groggy girl, drugged-up...

still sleeping...

After they took the IV out, she really wanted the bandages off, you can see her other little hand trying to rip them off. She bled a lot and has a big bruise. They tried both feet first and had no luck so she also has bruises there.

later that night, yawning with her nasty breath. We make her wear a bib now because she drools so much.

Before bedtime she was snugglin with her big sis.

We are glad it's over!
