Fun Activities

Two days of blogging in a row...what has come over me!?!?! :)
Last week was the first week in a long time that Macey didn't come and stay with us during the day (her mom is a teacher so she'll be at home all summer). I could tell towards the middle of the week that Emma was beginning to grow "bored" of her mommy... so I thought we needed to mix things up and add some fun new activities to our routine!
Turns out our little girl LOVES to color! I would set her in her chair and she could color for quite awhile. I'm really quite amazed at how well she scribbles (if that makes sense..ha!).
We took our first trip to the library this past week. Our library has a little area sectioned off for little people that has shelves of little board books for them to read. Emma loves to read so it was a little... okay.. no... ALOT overwhelming for her! :) She would run around and take a couple of books off the shelf and bring them to me to read to her...then she would dash back for more and grab another 2 or 3...and this went on and on. She never sat down with me to read them! And the whole time she was dashing around for books she would say "kooop..koop...koop" which is her word for book.
Alright...I need to get off of here to get our clothes around for church in the morning. Have a great Sunday everyone!



Coloring!
The picture below is one of my favs:) We were waiting in the car for Travis to meet us for lunch and Emma was getting antsy. So I gave her a little sheet of stickers and she stuck them all over her body.... notice the one on her cheek:) she thought it was so funny!
At the library they have a pretend tire swing (it's just a hole in the wall)... Emma loved it!

She looks adorable in these pictures! She looks like she should be on a Pantene commercial with that silky hair!! I have been teaching Cam how to use colors too but as of right now we like to color and then nibble off the tops.

Her hair is getting so long! Landree loves the library too, but for the tons of puzzles they have! Have a great summer!
