April Showers and Easter Celebrations!

At the end of March, she got to meet the Easter bunny and take pics and also some professional Easter pic at Skys. On the 27th, we went to an Easter Egg hunt locally. However, it was a little crazy with all the people there. We did do a really nice Easter Egg hunt in Atlanta at Callanwolde though. Very nice setup and beautiful grounds. She had a lot of fun picking up eggs and putting them in her basket. Easter day was great! Went to Grandma Connie's to be with the rest of the family. Aunt Pauline and family and Aunt Lisa and family were in attendance, along with Grandma Anna and Grandpa Peter. We had a egg hunt with Emery finding a good friend in Bryan and Jessica's little girl, Leanna (who is 3years old).

With the warm-up in weather, the fountains at Suwanee Town Center have opened! Visited there one weekend for a walk on the trail and to listen to an Oldies concert. I think Emery has found her new joy in life! She just loved going in and out of the fountains. She would try to drink it and then would step on it, splashing around. She is definately an independent child--she would go from one side of the fountain to the other and I would have to chase her down :) She also enjoyed running around with the bigger kids.

She started swim lessons this month with her friend Sam--every Friday for the next 3 weeks--at Swim Atlanta in Lawrenceville. She loves it! She will put her face in the water and blow bubbles. This makes me super proud of my water child! :) She can be a little mischievious though. One day, at home, it was quiet and I wasn't sure where she was in the house. I had thought she was with her daddy in his office. She came walking out of our bedroom holding a wet pair of socks. Following the drip trail, I came the scary realization that she had put the socks in the toilet! YUCK!!! She also finds it funny to walk around with a yellow bucket on her head saying "hat"! So funny...this makes me crack up! Apparently daddy taught her that in the bath tub one day.

She can now say several words well including: hat, hot, dog, bird and can sign "more" during dinner. We are still working on signing "thank you" and "drink."
