It's a nice night to be bloggin', so here we go. This missive is brought to you by the rock stylings of Neil Young and Pete Townsend (as Crow would say; "I now know how the world sounds to Pete Townsend" but I digress even before I get started).
Our little girl has straight-armed through another milestone in her short stint at Chez-Haynie. She made it clear that her days of sharing family meals in her high chair are a thing of the past. We knew that those days were numbered, as we had already resorted to keeping her in the chair with shoulder straps. She was strapped in so good that she could have been on a Nascar track making left-hand turns. The problem was that it took the two of us to get her in there. We gave up the fight. Her cousin Josh had given Emma a booster chair for just this occasion, and Emma was VERY pleased and thrilled to be sitting at the big table with us, as noted in the photo above. The dog must be disappointed because less food now hits the ground.
Denny took Emma to the Fairmont Aquatic Center today, and they both had a blast! Emma loves the water, and all of the accoutrements they have at the pool. It is going to be a regular stop in the future. Emma was so tired afterwards that she took a three-hour nap. We don't have any photos of the pool, but perhaps later. I think it wore out Mamma too, because she is asleep now as well.
With the weather warming up here (last week), we purchased one of those wading pools for the back porch. I have pictures of that, but have not been given permission to post any of those, and will not do so until such permission is granted(no dummy me!).
Our little Darlin' is growing up so fast. She looks older each week. We are just going to enjoy each day to the fullest and not look back. Her vocabulary is growing, and there are signs that she is trying to put more than two words together at a time. She will be able to call in sick for me in no time! OK then.
