My sweet Emma

This is the posterior view

In this picture, she had been sitting in front of the heater, so her face is abnormally red!

So Emma's friend from school had a "red carpet" bday last weekend. Emma really wanted her hair in ringlets. Now for anyone who knows us...we have super thick hair, and that's a super time consuming ordeal. Anyway, I caved, and we spent 1.5 hours curling her thick hair. It turned out so dang cute though. She dressed up in her cute dress with her cute hair and went to her cute party. She had a great time!

Thanksgiving

So...I love Thanksgiving. I love that our family gets together with other families and eats lots of food! It's rad. So here are a few pics from TG.

Sweet, Sweet baby Adam

My Wednesday Adams...she was so excited for this costume...and she pulled it off quite well.

Um......interesting.

So...halloween is such an interesting holiday...it's fun for kids, but as an adult watching from the sidelines...it's odd. Basically we send our kids to beg for food??? Whatever...we had alot of fun doing it. We did trunk or treat at the church, which was totally fun.

So we went on a family cruise for my mom's 50th bday to the western Caribbean. We had to skip Haiti due to the lovely hurricaine...but we didn't miss anything else. I was able to get scuba certified on the trip...the bottom of the ocean, at least at 35 ft is really pretty. I can't wait for my next trip! Oh wait...that's a long ways away...school is still my life!

Emma's hospital stay

Day number 2 at Children's Hospital. Emma decided that breathing was not such an important thing to sustain life. For those that know me...contrary to me being in nursing school...I don't do doctors or hospitals with my child. I finally gave in after 5 Neb albuterol treatments and Emma telling me she couldn't breath. We went to the hospital and her o2 sats were 82%...that's bad for those that don't speak medical.
She was on this mask for 2 days...cute!
She's feeling much better here. This is her cousin Ethen. They are 2 months apart.
We had so many visitors! It was great and it made Emma's day when people came to visit. She got pretty bored there at the end. Thanks everyone who came to relieve Emma of her extreme boredom.

Emma and I went on a date to see HS Musical this week! We had so much fun....I truly do like HS Musical...lame? Maybe...I don't care. I'm glad I'm not in HS anymore though! Not much else to report on...life is good.

Correction

Baby name has been changed...to...Adam Joseph instead. Shelley wasn't feeling the Joseph as a first name. Still cute though!
