Emmerson’s Journey

I am finally cooperating in the bath so Mommy is able to wash two kids at once.

Breighton thinks it is a blast to splash water on my face and make me giggle.

Grandma Jo and Grandpa Howie had bid on a week at the beach at the Big Cat Rescue last year. We went down a few days (not nights) to visit at the beach with them.

I loved sitting in the shade and watching everyone build sand castles and play in the water.

Time to be a camera hog!!!

Eventually, okay about 5 minutes later, I wasn’t content sitting on the blankets and HAD to be in the sand! Only about 10-20 handfuls entered my mouth!

I thought the waves were pretty neat!

But I wanted to crawl in them. But it made my belly too wet and cold. So I opted to crawl like a “normal” child. No more Michael Phelps breast stroke.

I LOVED when Mommy would spin me in the water. I just giggled and giggled!

But I think it was all too much for one day… man was it HOT out!

We ended the day with a nice dinner at Bubba Gumps on Treasure Island and headed home. Thanks Grandma and Grandpa for having us share some of your little get-away!

The last day we visited was just after high tide when Hurricane Ike was pushing the water all over. We jumped in waves… well I sat on the beach with Mommy and/or Grandma Jo.

Okay, once again we are behind on blogging. Over the Labor Day weekend we (Mommy, Daddy, Breighton, Grandma Jo and Grandpa Howie) made a day trip to Animal Kingdom, mainly for Breighton. I enjoyed watching him on the rides and seeing all the people walking around. I am starting to get to the point where i am not content in the stroller.

We went to the dino-land bone dig and I got to sit on the sidelines. But at least I was VERY cute!

Awww, shucks!

Mommy, Daddy and I hung out while Breighton played all over.

Trying to sit still…

Not content just sitting…

Breighton did stop by long enough for the obligatory brother photo… THANKS!

For someone who isn’t sleeping well or napping well… I am in a darn good mood!

Mommy and I hung out in Breighton’s room today for a chance of scenery. (Really Mommy was just cleaning up a bit!)

Anyway, HAPPY ME!

We miss you!!! Come visit soon!

In other news I am crawling “normally” now. No more Michael Phelps swimming style!

Last night I went to bed at 7:45pm. Around 12:45 I stirred and then was up in my crib bouncing up and down hollering for Mommy. That means screaming at the top of my lungs! Mommy nursed me and 10 minutes later I was back asleep. I didn’t wake up until 7am!!!!! This has been my best night ever, I think! My eczema is finally gone after a round of nice strong steroids rubbed on my tush! Mommy rubs me down with lotion a few times a day and I am once again a baby with BABY soft skin! GO ME!

Now Mommy can hopefully get some rest. But since she helped me blog about it, I may never sleep like that again! That is just how I am! hehe

Just me chilling out while Breighton plays on the playground. I got to listen to a bagpipe band practice too!
