Dear Ems.....

Hello sweet girl! It has been awhile since I wrote you a letter, Mommy is sorry!!! I do enjoy updating your blog and it is fun to keep track of all the fun memories that we are making but it is important that I take the time to tell you how much I love you and all the ways that you make my life better!

We had a fun time in Sacramento last week and wish that we lived closer to all our relatives that love you so much. You were under the weather, you poor thing, but still remained in good spirits like the darling angel that you are!

Last week we had Uncle David and his GIRLFRIEND over for dinner!! You have played with her once before and liked her. I get the feeling that you approve of Uncle David's choice which is good because you are the most special girl in his life other then her. We had fun eating slow cooker BBQ pulled pork fajita's, which were delicious and super easy to make. After dinner we hung out and you got to play and show off those sweet smiles.

This past weekend you and I were able to have some quality time together which I have missed. Everything is better because of you. Even tasks that I used to resent, like grocery shopping, have become fun just because I get to look at you. I am sure people think I am nuts because I chat with you as we shop. I like to show you what I am buying, ask your opinion on what is a better deal, see if you think Daddy will like my choice of cereal, etc. You have the most expressive little face too, never a blank look to be seen. Your little eyebrows go up, you smile, you are just an absolute doll. At the checkstand you were starting to get fussy so I showed you a stuffed bunny that was on a shelf for sale and it made you smile. I made the bunny kiss you and you smiled even bigger. It was the first time I that I noticed a toy made you smile. You love your toys and have for awhile but usually when I show you a toy, you get your concentrating look and your eyes get wide with excitement, you might even squeal in delight. But yesterday you smiled. When we got home we webcammed with Grammy and Grandpa and I was making your Mallory Monkey kiss you. You had the best time and were all smiles.

Friday night Mommy and Daddy went on a double date with Maddie and Ashlin's mommy and daddy, our neighbors. It was our first time leaving you in the evening. I missed you so much!!! Your Nana and Papa watched you and had fun taking care of you. We were out pretty late and had a good time. It is good for Daddy and I to have some time together because we love each other very much.

Your Daddy and I love you so much and every decision that we make in life now is all about you and your future. We are trying to do the right thing in every area of our life to ensure that you have a wonderful life that is blessed. We ask God every day to keep you healthy and help us be good parents to you. We know that God picked you to be our daughter and for that we are so happy and thankful. Words can't express how much I love you and how much being your mama means to me. Someday when you have a baby of your own, you will understand, but until then you will just have to trust me. My mom always told me how much she loved me but I never really understood until I looked into your sweet little face.

You really are a Daddy's girl which I think is pretty cute. I love that you love your Daddy. Whenever he is in the room, you just stare at him and smile bashfully. He loves holding you and snuggling with you. If you are eating and Daddy starts talking to me, you stop eating and just lovingly stare at him. Sometimes I have to wrestle you into turning around and eating again and have to tell you "Emersyn, focus!!". Hee hee.

Here are some pics of you and Daddy playing when he gets home from work.....
You talking to Daddy about how fun your toes are.



The look of love. :)
I love you so much my little love bug. XOXO.
~Mommy

What a beautiful letter! I started blogging because I'm so bad about scrap booking, but I wanted to record our lives together. And I think a blog is a bit more realistic than a scrapbook, but I can't wait for her to be able to go back and read it one day!

I LOVE celebrity baby blog! I also love Cool Mom Picks and Tot Snob. I find things I like on those blogs and then try to find it cheaper on ebay. But Tot Snob is really good about giving amazing discount coupon codes.

Which other ones do you like?
