Vacation in Austin!

We took a mini vacation to Austin for the State Track Meet and State Softball Tournament. My entire family met up there and we had a blast. It was super hot but Em'ry was a trooper. We just caked on the sunscreen. She also got her first taste of frozen lemonade because I felt so sorry for her out in the heat while we were enjoying ourselves. She loved it! Of course we had to take her to the capital to make her a Texan even though she was born in OKC. Greg and Papi took her and Hailie swimming and they had a ball. Nana and Papi were a little apprehensive about Greg dunking her but she didn't seem to mind. It was a great trip. The devil tried to spoil it with Jana's puppy getting deathly ill and Jana's car getting broken into but, God says NO weapon formed against us will prosper. We just took it all in stride and had a great time. No big deal, the only thing that was stolen was Dad's man purse and after seeing the vet Bella recovered just fine:)

Here we are cheering on the Lady Oilers and my friends from Pearland in the Semi-Final Softball game.

Em'ry seems to be enjoying the Track Meet even though it was steaming hot. Wearing a hat as always because she is whiter than my mom! Brandi's team ran well and placed in both relays.

In the pool with Daddy!

Playing poolside with Papi!

Hailie and Em'ry are so cute together!
A Texan at heart! She wasn't born here but we got her here as soon as possible :)

A Week in Booker!

After moving out of our house, Em'ry and I spent a week in Booker while Greg finished up his job in OKC. We had a blast hanging out with family. Em'ry loves having someone get down on the floor and play with her and you bet the grandparents are all over that!
Hailie is also quite the entertainer and will play with Em'ry for hours. They played in the floor, Hailie dressed her up, and they hung out in Hailie's tent. As you can see, it was a ball!

The weather was amazing the whole time we were in town and we spent alot of time outside. We sat on the porch, a blanket in grams front yard, watched the dogs play, watched Hailie's T-Ball games, and watched Michael ride his dirt bike.


We also got to spend some quality time with Gramps. He still has that special touch when it comes to rocking babies :)

While we were home, Hailie graduated Pre-K and Cesar graduated HS. This is a pic from the graduation lunch.

The Big Move!

As most of you know, we are in transition! And, that is why the blog has not been updated for quite some time. It may take a few posts to get caught up but I'm going to do my best over the next few days to make it happen.

We moved out of our house in Edmond on May 22nd and Em'ry had some neat experiences during that time.

She is reaching for everything and loved it the first time I offered her a bite of my banana!


She has come to love to look at books and be read to.



During the last week in Edmond she began sucking on her toes like crazy!



Jana came to town to help me pack and we rode with her to Ada to pick up her new puppy.



We stayed in a hotel for the first time if you would call it that. We were packing so late that we didn't get there until 3 am!


And, Em'ry saw Dr. Parrington for what could possibly be the last time. She loves her and it will be hard to find someone like her in the future.
