Emerson was in a great mood this morning, and we had a good drop-off. She’s always excited for Monday morning when she gets to take her backpack in, but today we also took in a bunch of plastic bags, and she loves doing that too. So it was a big morning for her! And I just love the face & pose she’s got going on in this first photo…

Emmie was back to her usual early-morning wake-up calls today, so we were all in the living room by about 6:30am. These two snuggled up on the couch together to watch “Cars,” and Daddy very quickly fell back asleep. But they were so cute and sweet!

Well we started the day with an unusual turn of events – Emerson slept until 7:30am! And when she woke up, she didn’t call for us, she just got up out of bed and walked over to our room, then crawled up in bed and snuggled in between us. She stayed in there with us for about 15 minutes, and I couldn’t get enough of her sweet, warm snuggles.
Then we had an early grocery pick-up slot (I’ve discovered I qualify as “high-risk” since I’m pregnant), so we got our groceries and then grabbed McDonald’s for breakfast on our way back home.

Today was National Wear Red Day to help spread awareness for cardiovascular disease and overall heart health, specifically in women. And since my tiny Emerson is now on the other side of a scary open-heart surgery, healthy and thriving with a healthy heart now, of course we had to wear red today to join in the movement!

We missed seeing the baby girls at school drop-off first thing this morning, but Emmie did great and didn’t cry or whine even once. She was actually super excited to see one of her classmates, and ran off running after him yelling, “Hey, dat’s my friend!”

One more morning drop-off with the baby girls this morning. (Bo has been out of town, so Megan was coming early to drop-off all together since she was by herself, but Bo is back now, so today was our last day of same-time-drop-off’s.)

It was so cold & windy this morning, Little One wanted a t-shirt, a sweatshirt, and a jacket on top of that. Plus gloves!

I think Emmie was trying to tell me her head was cold and she needed a hat, but she looks like a tiny model with this pose she’s got going on!

(This post is for Sunday, 1/31/21. After getting Emerson in bed Sunday night, I ended up talking to a friend on the phone for over an hour and fifteen minutes, and then just went to bed and skipped blogging. So here’s the post for Sunday!)
On the way to church, Emerson was like, “Is it OK if I sleep in the car?” We were like, “YES PLEASE have a rest!” So she bundled herself up and closed her eyes… and “rested” for all of 2 minutes. It didn’t last long, but it was adorable and sweet.

We started off the morning with scrambled eggs, bagels and coffee (even the tiniest two sips for Emmie), and then we had the busiest day!
