Race Night.....Sort of

A pre-race warm-up......perhaps we should have stopped with this.
At the starting line with Tia

Tia is trying to wait for Emily....and Emily is not having any of this race thing


Tia is sprinting to the finish and Emily is walking and crying

Emily loves to run, and talks about the "race" quite a bit....but that is where it ends. She likes the warm-up... but the minute the whistle blows she freezes.....stage fright? Who knows? Tia, who did not run last week, conquered her fears and ran this week, while trying to wait for Emily.


A Day at the Lake!

hanging out on the dock
"I don't really like this!"


The face says it all!


Today we spent the day, with Jen, on Lake Sunapee! The weather was wonderful....hazy, hot, and humid, just the way I like it! Emily loved swimming in the lake with Jen. She swims on her own wearing a life jacket or bubble and she LOVES the water. I took her out in a big tube and she was not thrilled about that, again we don't like things that are new or different, but the day was fantastic!

Nothing like the first time!

This is the first time Emily ever went in the ocean! It was quite an amazing day! Now it is hard to get her out of the ocean, or the "big" pool at Sudden Pitch!

Remember When?

The famous "0" Face
4 months

6 months

How time flies!

All Grown Up!


Emily has all the necessities.....sunglasses, car keys, necklace.....the only things missing are the cell phone and Coach pocketbook!

Bath time


Emily loves the water! It doesn't matter what kind, or how cold! She even attempts to swim in the bath tub!

Beach Fun!


One of my friends has a Blog for her family, including her two girls, and Emily loves to look at it. So I thought I would try to create one as well. I will try to post to it every few days (at least) so Everyone can see what Emily is up to!

Questions and comments will be greatly appreciated!

Here is goes........

Above you will see Emily and her friend Tia at the beach. It is amazing because until a few weeks ago Emily would never step on the sand, never mind sit in it!
