Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween! We had a busy last couple of days! On Wednesday, Aunt KiKi came to visit, and Grandma Joyce came to babysit while Keeley and I went to lunch and to get my H1N1 vaccine. On Thursday, my friend Leslie came to visit and bring over our Vandy Basketball Tickets. After Carl got home from work, he and Bower went for a run outside. I put Emerie down on her blanket in the floor for her "tummy time." She decided she didn't like it and threw a fit. I was on the phone with Mom at the time and was about to get off the phone to pick Emerie up. Em did her version of the pushup and rolled right over! I was so excited! No one else saw it but me. Granny heard it! I knew she was close to rolling over all week. We've tried to get her to do it again so Daddy can see her and video tape her, but apparently she's camera shy! Friday afternoon, we dressed her in her puppy dog costume and took her to Carl's work for a Halloween party. We definitely showed her off! I was proud of Carl for not using her to get candy! Ha, Ha! Only a piece of cake! She slept for most of it but woke up at the end and hammed it up for everyone. Today, we went to Hendersonville to see Great Aunt Betty Carol and cousins Courtney, Kaylor, and Christy. She was fussy and decided to cry most of the time, so we didn't get to put on our Halloween costume for pictures. After we came home, all the grandparents and Aunt KiKi came over. We had so much food! Corn dip, apple dumplings, pimento cheese, chili, and cupcakes. Everything was so good! Emerie was still fussy and only wanted to sleep! She finally woke up for pictures in her costume, but it was after Bumpa and Grandma Joyce left. I have a feeling we'll be making more pictures after tonight in her costume. She did great for what pictures we took. We ended up having 63 trick or treaters, and I had to give out some cupcakes since I ran out of treat bags. Bower was excited everytime the doorbell rang! He even tolerated his hotdog costume! We had a great day even though Em was tired and fussy. Hopefully she'll feel better tomorrow! I just hope she's not up all night since she slept a lot today! Carl just got her back to sleep, so we're going to bed to get as much sleep as she'll let us. Enjoy the pics of the last couple days! Goodnight!

It's Willie Nelson!

She fell asleep playing!
