Smiles.

We went to the dentist today. I say "we", but Miss Emma was the one with an appointment. She had a nasty cavity :(, but she really did a great job. The dentist said most kids her age are too hysterical upset once they get a Novocaine shot that they can't even finish... Miss Emma did shed some tears, but she sat still and let the dentist finish.

So here is a picture of my little trouper :) I love that  impish little smile, it is so "Emma" lol.

I do have a card too :)

I really like how this one turned out. I *love* this stamp set--Larger than Life from Papertrey Ink. One of my absolute all time faves. The sentiment is from Wplus9.

Thanks so much for stopping by!! Has your week started off well? Mine is actually going better than expected :)

sorry for the long absence...

but the birthday went *very* well, despite strong winds at the park where we had it. Since it was a Lego-Batman party, the birthday boy dressed up in his Batman costume.

Miss Emma's birthday is 2 days before Levi's, so we do the parties together. We had it the park near Nana and Papa's house.

Diffusing the bombs that Joker hid :)

Rescuing Superman and Robin that were frozen by Mr. Freeze.

Leah with her mask:)

The cakes. I made them, Daddy decorated them. They choose what they wanted. This year it was carrot cake with cream cheese icing :)

Opened presents and ate cake at Nana's house.

Mama, can you open this?

They had tons of fun :) But that combined with our day at Disney Sea completely wore this Mama out. (pictures from Disney will be coming as soon). I'm hoping to get crafty again over the next couple of days :)

Thanks for stopping by today!! I hope you had as fun of a weekend as we did!!

Really?

Is it really November already?! I knew it was coming, but still....I can't believe this is already going to be Emma's second Christmas! I can tell she's grown so much though. She says so much! The other day, Tomio had to leave for work early, and I was getting his breakfast ready. Since it was early, all the big kids were still in bed and Emma was in the kitchen with me. Now normally when I finish cooking and call the kids to eat, Emma will yell out "READY!". So when I was finished getting Tomio's breakfast ready, she said "ready!! CUTIE(that's was she calls Levi)!! Oh...Cutie nai-nais."(which is what she says for sleeping)It was sooooo cute! She actually said "Oh" and you could tell she was thinking and connecting it all in her head. I love it :) And whenever she wants you to giver her something, she'll say "please" and hold out her hand. Secretly I wish I could stop her from getting bigger *sniff*, but since I can't, I'm at least trying to enjoy all these wonderful little moments :)

Sorry, today was just one of those Mondays. You know, just not really any extra time for all that fun stuff, so I don't have any cards to share today. Hopefully tomorrow:) Our "Fall Party" that we do instead of Halloween is this Wednesday, so I'll be sure get some pictures of everyone in their costumes :) Thanks for stopping by!! Is your week starting off well? I hope so :)
