For mother's day, Emerson gave me a "makeover" and dressed me exactly like her

t's been awhile since I updated the blog. Life is passing by so fast, I don't know where the time goes. I can't believe it is almost the end of May. I'm going to blink and the holiday's will soon be here.
We haven't really been doing much but I just can't seem to get it all together. I'm just getting over a sinus infection, Emerson is busy at school and she had a huge mother's day celebration at school, Graham, is busy at work finishing up the city budget and being stressed (what else is new) and Atticus is making more noise. He doesn't say much but he sure makes a lot of monkey-like noises. He is still calling Graham "mama" he says, "bob, bob" for sponge-bob, he says "ball" and a few other words. He is also whining a lot more but I am hoping that is because he is teething and not his personality.
The biggest event of this month and the most expensive was our beloved first child, Putty had surgery. He had two masses removed from his eyes. While he was under anesthesia they discovered he needed his teeth cleaned and remove two of his incisors. Well, $731.00 later, he is doing well. His eyes are healing nicely, he is eating well and he is running into less walls with his e-collar. We are all getting a nice laugh at watching him walk with his e-collar shuffling from side to side.
Take time to enjoy your life! Enjoy these pictures!
My nephew Kendal came down and visited us from Utah without his brother or sister. He was thrilled to have all of our attention. Eme and Kendal got along so well, no fights! Graham and I took them both one day to enjoy a delicious rib lunch and watch the surfers at the Wave House. After we swam, played and boogie boarded at Mission Beach. Then to finish off a perfect afternoon...ICE CREAM!
Easter came and went so fast this year, it just snuck up on me. I didn't even have time to dye Easter eggs this year. Every year we go to a church members house for a huge egg hunt. Emerson always has fun trying to find the golden egg, which has a dollar in it. This year Atticus got to join her on the hunt. Atti had fun but didn't quite get the concept of picking up the eggs and putting it into his basket. He would pick up an egg and throw it like a baseball. He didn't end up with any eggs in his basket but he didn't care, he had fun anyway. Don't worry about the egg dying. I am sure we'll get to that this month.
Atticus actually warmed up to Aaron!
