Corbin is 6!!

Now that Corbin is in kindergarten we couldn't do a whole lot during the day. We did, however, take him to McD's for breakfast - he loves pancakes!! That was his "special" birthday meal.

After we took Daddy to work we went over to Grandma and Grandpa Howards before Corbin had to go to school.

They gave Corbin his special card...

... with his special treat money. He was most excited about that. =)

Corbin and Grandpa

see how cute?

I think they may end up looking alike!! There are definitely pics where Emma looks like Corbin but there are plenty of pics where I think she might come out looking like her big sis. It's so fun having two girls!!!!

Marley (in pink boots) 4/5 mths Emma 1 mth. See? Emma is a little bit bigger.

Scare Hair

I love looking at Emmas hair after tub time. This particular night I was scrubbing her head to get the little flakes out. Then I had to comb them out which lead to me putting lots of lotion on her dry little scalp. And here we are, look at her crazy hair. Corbin said she looks like a boy. I love it!

Emmas first Colts game

Emma was able to wear her COLTS dress to church on Sunday. In support, of course, of the first official season game. It's too bad they lost. Emma was lying on the floor at one part and Colt and I both yelled at the tv at the same time. Poor Emma jumped (if that's possible) and started crying. It was so sad. We forget she's not used to our yelling at sports like the other two. In due time, sweetie, in due time.

My dad had this horse shoe put on the dress for Marley when she was a baby.

Thanks again, Daddy!

Holy Postage!!

Marley

Tuesday was a hard day. Marley had a hard fall - just like humpty dumpty - and landed on her beautiful face causing major blood spewage. It freaked me out. Colt came home (I'm lucky he works just a hop, skip and a jump away) to help me deal with it. She got a nice cut up under her lip and a nice gash taken out of her gum just above her front teeth. White was showing - bone or tooth we weren't sure.

I spoke with different doctors offices and they all said the same thing - no stitches in the mouth, self healing, give it time, bla bla bla. Needless to see I had a hard day. I broke down in tears feeling completely helpless. Her mouth bled for a good two hours before she finally fell asleep. Her poor mouth was swollen and sore, obviously. Everytime she smiled she look different, not my little Marley.

These pictures were taken Wednesday, her face looks much better then it did the day before. The right side of her face still looks a little different to me but it's not that bad anymore. My mom looked in her mouth and saw no white but blue. Her sore is healing! I was so happy to hear that. She learned her lesson, we're all happy to know.

ps These are her sparkly pants that she got for her birthday. The whole outfit is from her birthday, actually. Notice the princess cd player, she loves that thing! Then of course Baby Abby who is always with her.

Emma and Me

It's hard to believe that a year ago I had the miscarriage and now look at what I hold in my arms. I love our little Emma Shea, she is another special blessing.

She wanted to eat, diving for something... =)
