Snapshots of Our Week

Dave was in orientation for Southwest all week. This is him in his new uniform, handsome huh. He was on his way to work and I begged him for a pic. He grudgingly obliged me hehe. The boy has been busy! Tonights shift will end a 90 hr. work week for him. Me and Em sure love him. He works so hard to provide for our little family. He is willing to do anything so I can be a stay at home mom. Amazing.

My little Chef-Emma lovvvesss to help me cook. This is her helping me bake some zucchini bread. The apron and hat were a gift from my aunt and uncle. She insisists on wearing them whenever she helps.

She just looks so darn cute and official. FYI she stirred the mix for a good 15 minutes.

Emma's delivery truck-after helping me make the bread she helped me deliver it along with a baby present to a neighbor. We loaded the goods up on her bike and she was off. Slowly but surely. It took us 20 minutes to go 4 houses down. She loves her bike.

Library time and park play are staples of our week. This is Em after a trip to the library. I love it. She will sit for a good hour flipping through her books. She has to explore them on her own before she lets me read to her. Ever since she was a baby she has been a book worm. She won't go to bed without one. There has been no story time this month, i'm excited for it to start up again next month. Em loves it.

This particular day the power was out for 7 hrs. It was soooo hot. Our house got up to almost 90. From nap time until bed time Emma spent the day in her wading pool and playing with neighbor kids. Can I just tell ya what an awesome neighborhood we live in. While we were outside three different neighbors brought us ottor pops. It was fun to look around and see everyone just visiting and chilling on their front porches. I sure was thankful when the power came back on. I put Emma to bed in nothing but a diaper.

This is Emma blowing bubbles and being a fish

When Dave got home from work this morning and went to bed Emma went with him. Dave was just finishing a 20 hr shift and was beat. Emma missed him though so she was content to snuggle next to him for quite awhile. She loves her daddy.
