Our Weekend in Pictures

  

This weekend was exhausting but fun and I did my best to document all of the festivities. So come along and see what we were up to this weekend! 

Emma's "grandfarmer" was in town for her cousin's Christening. He is a lama farmer in southern Virginia. We will probably go down there this summer to visit. Visiting lamas is always fun. Emma was excited to see her grandpa! 

He kept saying she has aspirations to be a dentist. No idea where that came from ;)











We went to Nana's house Saturday morning to have pancake brunch! Emma had fun "helping her aunt make pancakes. She also enjoyed showing off her new walking skills.

Then we took Nana to the spa for her birthday!
It was kind of funny to me to bring a baby into a spa since that's usually where you go to get away from the kids but Emma was quiet and sat patiently while we were there. While Nana was at the spa we went with Auntie Julia to get fro yo!

Daddy came and picked Emma up after fro yo and took her to her experience her first car wash! She was fascinated!

Then they went to the park. I hadn't thought about it but it's been a long time since Emma has played in grass. I know it sounds weird but she was a tiny baby last summer so she didn't remember that grass experience. Therefore the grass at the park was a new and mysterious thing to her. Oh to see things through the eyes of someone who is experiencing everything for the first time! Even the smallest of things is magical!      

Finally, on Sunday, it was her cousin Cianna's christening. We got all dressed up and packed for a 2 and a half hour church service and then a lunch to celebrate. With all of that I was super excited we were only ten minutes late! It was Emma and my first time at a Southern Baptist church service. It was lively and fun (even though it was a bit long.) But Emma did well making it through the entire service with only a semi meltdown at the end (picture is with uncle Shawn, my husband's twin brother)

Then we went to lunch and in the 11th hour, after a long church service and an hour of sitting at the restaurant, mommy pulled out her trusty companion, Mr. iPhone for a little Sesame street relief. Needless to say we headed home exhausted shortly after.             

Finally we were home and mommy mustered up enough energy to make fruit salads for the whole family for the week! It was fun but I think we are all looking forward to a little bit more low key weekend next weekend. Hope you had a good one!
