Emma and her siblings

Okay, this isn't one of those amazing videos where a baby is naming off all the presidents of the United States, or naming every country on a map. Emma likes to carry around pictures of her brothers and sister and say all their names. I think it's really cute how she says all the names. She also goes through all the laundry and says who owns a particular piece of clothing. She's pretty accurate too! Anyway, enjoy.

Children's Museum

We went to the museum a while ago (we've actually gone twice, but the first time I didn't have my camera). I thought I would share some fun pictures from our time there. It is really a great museum. Everything is hands on. We could go again and again and the kids would love it.

Playing dress up

Lately Rachel has been wanting to put on makeup and dress up clothes. She was upset that all of her dress up clothes are now too small. I told her that she could play dress up with some of my clothes. She tried on some of my dresses and had a fun time. I told her she could try on my wedding dress if she wanted. She beamed and said "I was hoping you would let me do that". I then told her that a few years ago, I was dejunking the house and was seriously considering donating my wedding dress to DI. All it ever did was hang in my closet and take up room. I was never going to wear it again, and I had lots of pretty pictures of it to remember what it looked like. I was telling this to Sarah and she said "No, you can't get rid of it, someday, your daughters will want to use it to dress up in!" Rachel was really happy that we had that conversation. She said something like "I am so glad that Sarah made you keep it!". So, thank you Sarah, for being the one to make it possible for pictures like this.
