More pictures, more berries!

Well, cherries to be exact! This is the latest haul on cherries- Daddy braved the cherry tree with his ropes, harness, and ladder, and got quite the prize for his efforts! Should have taken a picture after he was done pitting them, cooking, and canning for pie filling... you would probably have seen steam coming out of his ears and some bizzare looking purple hands...

Emma trying on hats again... what's the fascination with that? I have no idea, but it sure is cute. She picked out the dress for the day, by the way!


Showing Mommy how to apply sunscreen
Reading a book in her lounge swing while Mommy cleans up after lunch
Trying out the old bathtub as a tiny swimming pool- she had fun, but the clouds rolled in with the wind as soon as we went out, so it was a short swim!

So, is she trying to escape or just airing things out??? Nothing better than nakey time after getting out of the "pool!" (this picture has been removed due to the suggestion that there are a significant number of ridiculous idiots in our world today.)

This is the best thing I've ever found to put in my shopping cart! Emma did this on her own while I was organizing her toys and books... she just kept repeating one word/sound over and over again... I turned to see her in it! Apparently she was trying to get my attention because she wanted her sandal which was on the floor next to the cart. She's recently also developed a bit of a fascination for trying to put on her shoes- she had one on correctly this morning (usually the sandals go on backwards) but just on the wrong foot. She wore it around for probably an hour like that before I could convince her to take it off!
Just had to post a picture of the awesome flowers we received for our 11th anniversary! They are just gorgeous! They smell amazing too, and there was a balloon that came with it... I wonder where that might have gone... I think a tiny little girl may have confiscated it as soon as it made it through the door...
