Well after Emerson felt so bad last night (high fever & a one-time vomit), I was expecting today to still be rough. She woke up this early this morning with a relatively low fever, so I gave her some meds right away. And then the fever never came back! She wasn’t her usual spunky self, but she was pretty good. She ate pears for breakfast, and then while I cooked & ate my own breakfast, she had a TON of blueberry Puff’s and peach Cheerio’s.

Today for school spirit Friday, Emerson was rocking her “Fun to Be Fit” summer daycare shirt. And even though it’s a size 2T and obviously huge, she’s still adorable in it. And something about the t-shirt instead a onesie makes her seem like such a big girl. And those little shorty-shorts! Ah! Kill me!

Well this morning, Mommy was a goofball, and accidentally put on Emerson’s romper backwards. I snapped her all up the front just like everything was normal, and didn’t even notice until Jeff was carrying her to the car, that the cute little bow that’s usually on her belly button, was on her back… So I just took her to school like that, and they fixed it with her first diaper change.

For lunch today, I enjoyed last night’s leftovers, and read some more of my book. (This library book was actually due Monday, but I had barely started it, and there were holds on it, so I couldn’t renew it. So now I’m trying to read as fast as possible, and turn it in before I rack up too many days of late fees!)

Emmie is still just taking her time with the whole walking thing. She will stand more on her own, but only when she wants to. At drop-off this morning, I tried to get her to walk to me (and I really thought she was about to), but of course she just plopped back to her butt. Then she turned around & stood up, and I thought she was gonna walk to Ms. Heather reading her a book (to distract from my departure), but then she didn’t do that either…

Spoiler alert – as I’m writing this at 10:30pm, it’s no longer busted. But when we first woke up this morning, it was 80° in the house, and the vents we’re blowing out warm air. It felt terrible, even though it was only 7am. Long story short – my uncle gave me a contact for a guy who repaired his a/c recently, and he came a few hours later & had it fixed in about 10 minutes flat. And it’ll only cost a couple hundred dollars, which I’m totally ok with since ya know, it’s July in Florida. So if you need an air guy, lemme know, because now I have an air guy. #homeowners

Hot House with Busted A/C Read More »
Tonight, we celebrated our precious baby girl, with her very own Moana-themed birthday party! She still wasn’t feeling too great from yesterday’s shots, but we all made the most of it. There were 19 people here, which is the most we’ve ever had in our house, and the most people I’ve ever prepared a meal for. But it went great, and we’ve even got leftovers! We had BBQ pulled pork sliders on King’s Hawaiian rolls, Hawaiian pasta salad, potato salad, crab dip & crackers, a green salad with homemade vineagrette dressing, fruit skewers, Tidal Wave punch, plus Goldfish & Veggie Straws, since those are Emmie’s fave snacks. And of course cake & ice cream!

Emerson’s 1st Birthday Party! Read More »
I’m just taking a quick break from working, so I’ll be brief with my updates today, so I can get back to it!
I picked up Emerson early from school today, because the punkin had her 12-month doctors appointment today! She’s 8th percentile for both height & weight, and her doctor (who is also one of our best friends, Abby. Hi, Abby!), is pleased with her growth & progress. She’s also ahead of the curve as far as her skills & development, so go Emmie! We did have to get four shots today though, so that was super sad and traumatic. Poor sweet baby.
