Gammy Bev's Party Day 2

Today was day two of Gammy's party and Will had so much fun.  I ended up sick last night so we sent Will over in the morning while I got some rest.  When we made it over the face painter was there and was amazing!  Will wanted to be a 'mean robber guy' and had so much fun with his new look.  

We even convinced Papa Clint

Natalie and Hailey

Jessica

Papa Clint's finished spider

Emmie got one too!

Fishing time!

Gammy got all the grandkids suited up in their "monster buster" gear and they chased all of the adults in an epic game of tag.  So much fun!

Pinata time!

We ended up having to get back to Salt Lake so it was a quick trip but man it was a ton of fun!  Thanks again Gammy Bev!

Gammy Bev's Party Day 1

This afternoon we headed to Idaho for Gammy Bev's annual Halloween Party.  Will has been so excited for the party and couldn't wait to dress up in his costume.

After Grandma's spooky dinner the kids had a treasure hunt!

 My highlight of the night was the monster dance off!  Will was so into it and it was so cute watching him :).

Thanks for the fun night Gammy Bev!!

Emmies Big Gift and the Whomping Willow

We had such a fun time hanging out with everyone who made it to Emmie's 1st Birthday Party yesterday that we completely spaced giving her her big gift from Mommy and Daddy.  So we did it first thing this morning!

Love this!

She was so excited!

Such a little cutie!

 She really already loves her new kitchen set and its the perfect size for her right now.  Her favorite part is opening and closing all the doors and moving all the toy dishes and food around in all the cubbies.  So cute!

Before Thompson's and Gammy Bev headed back home we played a new game called Whomping Willow (any HP fans out there?!) and it was seriously hilarious!  The person in the middle (the willow) gets blindfolded and while staying in the same spot reaches out and tries to touch everyone else while they change places.  We couldn't stop laughing!  It was actually a lot harder than it sounds!

I am still trying to grasp the fact that baby Emmie is offically a 1 year old!  It seems so unreal at times and this past year has absolutely just flown by.  Emmie is the best baby and has always been a go with the flow type of kiddo.  She has always been a great nurser, amazing sleeper, and just an overall happy baby.  I feel like so much of her first year slipped by as I tried to adapt to being a mother of two and struggling with Post Partum Anxiety.  I hope when Emmie is older she will forgive me for all the ways I was a different mother to her in her first year than I was to Will.  I really did do my best but I get worried she will think I failed her.  Just know baby Emmie I love you so very much and I tried hard to do the best I could!

Emmie is such an adorable baby and everywhere I go people constantly comment on how cute she is.  It is so fun!  She really is a doll with gorgeous eyes, long eye lashes, and perfect little eyebrows.  Her whole face lights up when she smiles or giggles and she adores her big brother Will.  Emmie hardly ever cries but definitely has a temper so when she gets mad watch out!  

The weather didn't cooperate today so we ended up having to keep everything inside.  I adapted what I originally had planned and I am happy with how things turned out!

My little birthday girl!

Just cant get enough of this handsome guy!

Emmie loves her Gammy Bev!

Will picked out his own gift for Emmie and couldn't wait to finally give it to her :)

We had such a fun time celebrating Emmie's first year and appreciate all the love and support we received.  We sure do love baby Emmie and are so grateful she joined our little family!!!
