Emi and babies


I've posted about this before....Emi LOVES babies(which includes anyone her size or smaller)!  Sometimes she loves them a little too much...like trying to pick them up or hug them until they fall to the ground!  
Yesterday we got to spend the morning with the Williams' family and Emi loved it!  As we were driving there we were telling the girls how they were going to be able to get to play with Trey and Tyson and how much fun they're going to have.  All of a sudden all you hear from the back is "BABY, BABY!!!!"  ...oh yes, we didn't mention baby Brooklyn!  The highlight for Emi was definitely going to see baby Brooklyn...and she actually ended up even getting to feed Brooklyn a bottle!  She took her job so seriously and loved every minute of it.  I wish I took a picture, it was very precious. :)  ...then when she was done being gentle and sweet to Brooklyn she went and played tackle with the boys! ;)
It was a great morning for all!

*Picture above is when Emi wanted to sit on the floor and eat her breakfast on the stool.  Silly girl!

Our Cali Trip

The past couple days we've been in Cali.  It was a quick trip, but lots of fun was had. :)  We went to Disneyland for a day and then were going to head to the San Diego Zoo the next day, but ended up taking a trip to Santa Barbara instead.  Here are some pics...

On our way!  (you'll see a lot of Emi's CHEESE smile)
Waiting to go in.
Still Emi's favorite ride, NEMO.
Princesses, round 1






Our only family shot, bummer the kids wouldn't smile! :(

Back for naps...much needed by all!



Daddy just decided to go with the flow and join in on the CHEESE smile. :)
Papa and Alyssa meeting Minnie. :)

Emi was scared at first..
but was warmed up quickly. :)


Going to see princesses, round 2...I'm sure there would have been a round 3 if they hadn't closed right after we left! ;)




Alyssa joining in on the parade.



I think they were all done with me asking them to smile for pictures!


Fireworks!!!
One last picture before leaving.
Playing at the beach in Santa Barbara.






I don't know who's bright idea it was to say..."We won't need to bring their swimsuits, we're just staying for a couple minutes."  (Oops, that was me!)  ...thank goodness I brought a change of clothes along!


Enjoying a convertible ride back to our hotel.
