latest antics

So here's some fun pictures of Emily I've been meaning to share...

Emily won't wear hats, but boxes are apparently okay.

Brady and Emily love crawling under the table and through the chair rungs, which has accounted for many bruises on their poor little heads.

A particularly messy dinner of stroganoff... notice where her bowl is.

Hmm... maybe if I wear a hat in the tub mom won't wash my hair...

I distracted her with a bottle to get this cute matching kerchief on her head... needless to say it didn't make it to church. And don't worry, she has had her bangs cut and is no longer in danger of turning into Cousin It.

By the way, Emily has graduated from bottles! We tried giving her milk in her sippy cup and water in her bottles to try and gradually reduce the bottle-dependence, but that was too confusing and frustrating for her. So then we went cold turkey, and it was over after two minutes! Although a week later I found an old bottle that had rolled under our bed (digusting!) and Emily saw me throwing it away- shoot! She cried at the top of her lungs for 10 minutes. I might as well have beheaded her favorite bear. I think I'll wait until teething is over to take away her binky.

I like her little Nikes in the first pic. The handkerchief is adorable too. I understand the not making it to church thing...Noah loves to have his hair done and likes to be dressed and ready for church...then throws on a ball cap on the way out the door and every week..destroys the clean look for a fresh playful look.
