come again?

After picking up my sweet little angel at church, she states, "Mama, CRAPS is fun!"

translation: Crafts are fun.

Can she just stay two forever?

Signs (video)

uh... what?!?!

When going through a bag of clothes, Emma put a new bra on her head.

Daddy: Emma, is that a hat?
Emma: No, it's mommy's booby thingy.

cartoons

If I have the TV on during the day while Emerson and I are at home and I am watching something that doesn't exactly pique her interest, she will cuddle right up and almost bat her eyes at me while saying, "Mommy, this is not an emma-sized show." (in hopes that I will appease her and change the channel).

this "emma-sized" saying has also translated to other areas (books, games, activities, etc.)

too cute

it's a video. if you get this in email form, go to punkinponderings.blogspot.com to view it.

couple quick pics

I love that for only a VERY brief moment, Emma saw the tubes and equipment which Malachi depended on for his every breath and means of nutrition. She quickly, quickly taught me a lesson in unconditional love. Her love for Malachi never ceased to amaze me. She was proud to be his big sister and to have him as her baby brother.

Another mother's day pic taken while Miss was posing for pictures on her windowsill. Can you really go wrong with toddler skirts and leggings... I will miss this.

lost in translation

I kissed Emma really hard on the cheek and said "k. Now you give daddy a big smackeroo!". She turned and hit him as hard as she could on his back! Guess I needed to be clearer.

nicknames

Emma just "passed gas" and said with a smile, "I Tooty Magee"

a sponge

Emma will pick up her imaginary camera, bring it to her face, and state "Everybody say 'Awkward'."

John and I had no clue where she had gotten that from, UNTIL we saw the new progressive insurance commercial.

Emma's Songs

Zacchaeus Was a Wee Little Man (who climbed up in the SACKamore tree)
Give Me That Old Time "Wiggin" (it's good enough for me, yes SIR)
ABCs (normal way and Super Why/Alpha Pig way)
Jesus Loves Me
I'm in the Lord's Army (she actually sings the words infantry, calvary, artillery)
If You're Happy and You Know It
Deep and Wide
Mary Had A Little Lamb
Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star
Hey, Diddle, Diddle
Head and Shoulder, Knees and Toes
... and others.


Emma asked if we could sing the "Allie" song. I was confused..."You know, mom. The B-I-B-Allie" :)
