Emily is an "on the move" kind of girl. She very rarely sits still, and loves to do anything outside, even though it is crazy hot out there. She is such a funny & sweet little girl. She has been adjusting to all the traveling we have done this summer. She is also adjusting to the central time zone pretty well, although she is waking up between 6 and 7am. We are hoping she starts getting used to being back on central time and sleeping a bit later in the mornings.

Emily has a love/hate relationship with brushing her teeth. She loves it when she brushes, but she hates it when we do.

Emily loves to swing. She was glad to get to swing with Daddy.

Her cousin Emily had fun pushing her on the swing.

Here Emily was playing with Shelbyanne and friends in the "ball room", as Abby called it, at the Chick-Fil-A headquarters outside of Atlanta. She was watching the other girls very closely, because she wasn't exactly sure what to do with such a big ball. She normally likes to try to sit on them or roll on them, but this one was a bit big for her.

Here she is with some of our friends, John and Katy Kirkwood. They are so great with the girls. Emily is cheesing it up for the camera.

These are some of my favorite pictures. This is how Emily fell asleep in the car. Can you see anything interesting in this picture?

Take a closer look.

How about now? I don't know why, but she started crossing her fingers the other day. It is so cute when she does this.

Emily loves to swing. She really loves to do anything outside, even though it is hot and humid. Guess it doesn't bother her like it does the rest of us.
Emily is getting some tips for feeding her babies from her big sister, Shelbyanne.
Awe...Emily with her Daddy and Uncle Thomas.
Emily loves to look at books. She is doing better at sitting through Mommy or Daddy actually reading a book to her.
We can always get her to say cheese for the camera. She has such a spunky personality. She wakes up happy and spends her days in a good mood...minus a few fussy moments.
Emily is expressing new vocabulary words daily. Today she woke up saying sister (of course we understood what she was saying even though it did sound like "ti taw"). She knows lots of animal sounds, and loves puppies. She has no fear of big animals.
