Emma Likes Limes

So we went to Bajios for dinner tonight and on a whim I put a wedge of lime close to Emma to see if she would be interested in it. Sure enough she grabbed it, and seemed to enjoy the new taste. We brought home another wedge so that we could capture it on video. You can check out the new Bumbo we got for her as well.

Remember.......

Remember Emma is the Gerber baby's twin?....

Well I just so happened to come across one of my old dolls growing up, the old vintage Gerber baby doll. I couldn't help but take a picture of our little munchkin next to the doll. When I brought the doll home from my parents the other night, Derek freaked out at the doll. I asked him, "Doesn't our baby look just like the gerber baby doll?" He said "Yeah, maybe if she was possessed by the devil." He thinks the doll is scary but I grew up playing with it so I throughly enjoy it.

yummy....

I made this fantastic herb and garlic chicken served with rice, zucchini, and salad the other night. It was SO yummy. I made with just the lawry's herb and garlic marinade. I marinaded my chicken for about 4 hours or so. The longer the marinade the more flavor it will have. Also I marinated some zucchini for about an hour or so then cooked it and it tastes scrumptious all together. Derek really enjoyed it. So I just thought I'd share. Also I think the marinade is on sale right now at Macey's for 2 for $4.00.

Our Valentines!!!!!!!!

(I loved this note...I laughed SO hard. Thanks babe!!)

What a fun Valentines Day we had. I got up early with Emma and made Daddy some breakfast in bed with pink heart shaped pancakes, sausage, and eggs. I made a couple cards from Emma and I of how much Daddy means to us. Throughout the day I would find little things like a love note written on the bathroom mirror, a sweet little note in my makeup box (refer to picture above), and dozen roses left on the door step. He's so sweet. We wanted to go out to dinner and decided to give it a shot and see what the crowds looked like. We went to Outback Steakhouse and surprisingly enough we only had to wait 20 minutes. Of course minutes after we got our name in, the crowd started piling in and turned to be 80 minute wait. Talk about good timing. It was wonderful to spend the day with the two people I love so dearly.

"Let Me Call You Sweetheart"

Here are our Prom pictures from last Friday night! We had such a blast!! We even had a group picture taken of some friends of ours in the ward, Dallas and Rebecca Golden, John and Rachel Hone, and Seth and Coleen Ure. It was great to prettied and dressed up. Especially for all of us first time Mama's. It was so fun being at the Prom with my sweetheart. The night was full of fun and we danced the night away!

Squeals and Toes

Lately Emma has really been discovering those cute vocal cords of hers. She squeals ALL the time. Here's a video of her loving to hear herself during her bath time. While squealing the toes were becoming very appetizing to her. The past week she's LOVED sucking on her toes...it's hilarious. She is so funny and full of life.

YES!!!

YES DEREK, I will go to Prom with you!!! :) I love you!!

Derek, I hope you get this before this evening of our Ward Prom night. I am SO excited.
Derek asked me to our ward Prom a few days ago. He had the WHOLE bath tub filled with balloons. I had to pop all the pink ones to find words that puzzled together to ask me to prom. YAY!! I am SO excited!! I love you sweetie.
