Big Girl!

I just wanted to post some pictures of Emma in her new 'big girl' bed. We finally got the bed almost a week ago, I think, and she has done really well sleeping in it. We took these pictures right after we got it set up. She loves to lay in her bed and play on it. I think she feels really grown up. I don't know what I'm going to do about her blanket though. It's the one from her crib but she loves it. It's her blankey and she carries it around the house with her. I might have to make a bigger one from the same material or something. Anyway, here's the pictures.

She was laying down in it but as soon as Timothy came in with the camera, she sat up to pose! (how do you spell pose? That doesn't look right...) Anyway, we finally got her to lay back down.

Happy Birthday Babe!!

We celebrated Timothy's birthday on Tuesday (its really the 29th but we didn't get one of those this year), he's the big 27 this year! Yeah!!! My Mom and Dad came down for a couple of days and tiled our bathroom for us (pictures coming, I want to finish painting first). Anyway, we went to Fuddruckers for lunch on Tuesday - it was delish - and then had some 'cake' after Dad and Timothy finished up in the bathroom. Timothy has gone off desserts and so instead of cake we did a fruit pizza, which was really good. The glaze was a little sweet, I definately will cut back on that next time! Anyway, here are some pictures, enjoy!

Emma wanted to help open all of the presents. She didn't quite understand that this wasn't for her. She loved when we sang 'Happy Birthday' to her though.

Timothy's favorite show is Leave It To Beaver, (seasons 1 and 2 now available on DVD), so of course, he got season 2 to complete his collection...so far.

A nice new shirt. (So, our mail man smokes and I guess he smokes while driving the postal truck? Are they allowed to do that? Needless to say, the shirt is airing out.)

Doesn't it make your mouth water? It was so yummy! You may not be able to tell but there are blackberries and blueberries in the middle. I was surprised to learn that it really doesn't require that much fruit. I had bought everything at Sam's Club (Wal-mart's version of Costco, for those of you in Canada) but only used like, 3 kiwis, 4 strawberries, and handfulls of the other berries. So, we've been eating a lot of fruit lately. And I made fresh blueberry muffins. I love fresh muffins. Anyway, Happy Birthday Timothy! I love you so much! Thanks for being born!

P.S. Joanna - I'm due May 29th but chances are, we'll go in a little bit sooner.
