Happy Birthday Emma!

Emma's birthday was last Sunday, July 6th. My little baby is 2 years old! It was a fun day. She was so excited to open her presents. They were sitting on the table, and we had to let her open a few throughout the day because she wouldn't leave them alone. She chose My Little Pony decorations for her party with my family, and she especially loved the bouquet of balloons we got to help decorate. At her party we ate pancakes for dinner, and had banana splits for dessert because she loves bananas and ice cream. It was a fun day! Thanks to my family for coming to the party and for all the really nice gifts. Emma loves every one of them! Now we get to look forward to celebrating with the Tyson's. Gotta drag those birthdays out as long as you can!



Fun Facts about Emma
  • Emma's favorite color is pink
  • Emma absolutely loves airplanes. Whenever we're outside or in the car she looks for airplanes. Then she asks over and over "Where airplane go?" and when you say "I don't know", she answers her own question with "da airport".
  • Emma is very thoughtful. All throughout the day she is asking me "where Jenasi", or "where grama". She is always thinking about others.
  • Emma loves to color and read stories.
  • Emma is very nurturing. She helped me when I was sick, and she is actually very good with her little cousins(a trait I'm hoping sticks with this new baby coming). She loves to play with her baby and put her to bed and feed her her bottle.
  • Emma has so much personality. She never fails to make me smile. She is constantly doing and saying goofy things that make me laugh. I love it!
  • Emma loves airplanes.
  • Emma loves to play in the water. Whether it be swimming in a pool, or playing in a fountain.
  • Emma is a sweetheart. She gives the best hugs and kisses. It absolutely melts my heart when she just comes up to me and gives me a big squeeze for no reason. She does it pretty often, and I love it!
  • Did I mention she loves airplanes.
  • Emma is kind of a tomboy.
  • Emma loves to sing and dance. She sings along to hairspray, even on key sometimes. And whenever there's a musical movie on, she dances to all the songs.
  • Emma is the joy of our lives! We love you Emma

Happy Birthday Emma! That's so funny that she loves airplanes. My nephew that's about her age LOVES lawn mowers. She's an adorable girl.

Cute! I can't believe she's 2! Good idea keeping track of her likes and interests.

Just to let you know, not that it means anything, but I had a dream the other night that you were having another girl. I don't know why, since I haven't seen you for years, but in my dream we were hanging out and I was saying how great it was that you were going to have two little girls like me. Random, I know. Just thought I'd share!

Happy Birthday Emma! Okay I cannot believe that she is already 2! Time has flown by, it seems like just yesterday Kristy and I came to the hospital to see her(and we were so jealous that she was a month early) She will be a great big sister!
