The last few weeks...

In the last few weeks, things have been super busy! We celebrated my 33rd birthday a week after Emmerson was born. It was such a nice day...just the 4 of us...we picked up lunch from my favorite sandwich place, Texadelphia. And then went and got some DELICIOUS cupcakes from another favorite place, Sprinkles! YUM!!! Tim gave me the sweetest card from he & the kids...and the best gift EVER! A Mother's ring! I have been wanting something like this for so long...and he totally surprised me!! We finished out the night making our own homemade pizza for dinner (one of Carter's favorite things to do). Tim did SOOOOO much to make the day super special for me - what a guy!! I am blessed!!

We also celebrated Easter last weekend. Not our typical church service / brunch, etc. Just another quality day at home, the 4 of us - and a couple of cute Easter baskets! Carter's new favorite thing has to be his Pez dispenser...too cute!!

Other than that, just spending time together, and with sweet friends and family who come by to visit :) Carter is so in love with Emmerson. I never pictured him being so gentle, so sweet, so loving and so concerned about her. It just melts my heart!! And she is doing great. Had her 2 week checkup this week...she already weighs 8 pounds, 12 inches and is 20.75 inches long - our big girl!



LOVE Sprinkles!

Homemade pizza!

He is always stealing bites of pepperoni & cheese as we go!

Had to include this picture...he is watching Toy Story.  You can see he has Woody with him - well he decided he needed to wear a cowboy hat too!  Too cute :)

Sweet big brother...

Daddy's Princess for sure!

Sweet kisses :)

Silly faces.  Love how she is just staring at him :)

Daddy found some really cool tablets you put in the bath to change the color of the water - so fun!

Mother's ring...The purple stone is amethyst, to represent Carter.  And on either side is an aquamarine stone to represent Emmerson (and it's my birthstone too).  So pretty...

Loving on her little monkey blanket!

Easter baskets!

Sweet girl on her first Easter :)



Our future Texas Ranger!

 

Sweet girl...

LOVE when she sucks her thumb!!
 

Aren't these letters beautiful?!  One of Carter's old teachers, Taylor, made these for us for Emmerson's room.  GORGEOUS!

She made Carter some as well - love them!!
