Fun on the farm...

We always spend the day after Thanksgiving out in Buckeye at Cody's Uncle's house. His dad and brothers grew up on a farm out there. Two of his uncles still live and farm out there. The kids have so much fun running around. This year Cody's cousin was playing with them out there and snapped some great pictures. He's only 15. But I love these dirty faced kids!

Emrie

Its amazing to me that its been two whole years since this little girl came into our family. Some days I feel like I've been dealing with her FOREVER! And others, it seems like yesterday. She is definitely our most difficult child. She proves that practically everyday. She was born difficult. Good thing for her she is also super cute, smart, funny and sweet. Those big brown eyes get me every time! 

We had a super low key birthday, complete with old school birthday cake candy. Don't think I've seen it since I was a kid. I am lame with birthday cakes. I figure I can get away with junk like this now because she is clueless and doesn't care a bit.


She was seriously a pro at blowing the candles. She didn't need any help at all. I think we did it two or three times because she loved it so much!


Brother always loves a good party!


She is obsessed with Dora. Lucky me...we watch it all day long. She'll be fluent in spanish before I know it! She loves her Dora jammies.


Avery with another of the favorite gifts...sock monkey!



This just shows you some typical Emrie attitude. We had the bed out upstairs for Avery and Liam to watch a movie on one night. After they were in bed, she made Cody put on her favorite movie. (Robin Hood of all things) everyday she wants to watch "show Robin" as she puts it. She had her bottle (which she's still stuck on at bedtime) and assumed the movie watching position. You can't tell that she's in charge around here, can you?
