The weekend of birthday parties! Emily was invited to four birthday parties in a week. We only made it to three of the four parties! Here is a picture before her first party.

Emily's Pictures
We had Emily's pictures made today. We never get them done at her birthday since we usually get our family picture made for Christmas which is 3 weeks before her birthday. So we decided to start getting her pictures done in the summer instead. They turned out pretty good. She was really excited and tried to be in charge of how she posed and what she did. She got to have Sally in a few of the pictures which made her really excited!

Baby Update
For those of you that are asking about my belly! This picture was taken last night. I was 19W3D. I am much smaller than I was with Emily, but I started out smaller as well. No naked belly, I was wearing a dress and didn't want to show you if I was wearing boxers or briefs! Our sonogram was on Friday and baby was healthy. We are not finding out the gender, so not much to tell there. Baby has been moving and grooving lately. Andy felt him/her move for the first time last weekend.

Six Flags Over Texas
Today was cooler and overcast, so Emily and I decided it would be a good day to go. Turns out we were right. We didn't have to wait in any lines. Emily rode so many rides and had lots of fun.

At the front entrance of Six Flags Over Texas.

Riding on the carousel!

Practicing being a train engineer. She got to ring the bell the whole time!
Great swings that mommy doesn't have to push!

Look, Grandpa Carter, I can fly too!

Balloon Ride

David, Dont be jealous of Emily's cool batman ride!

Constant reminders of our sweet dog, Annabelle!

Posing with the M&M's. These were the only thing she would pose with. There were lots of characters she could have gotten her picture taken with including batman, Bugs Bunny, and the other Looney Tunes Character's, but NO! She was scared of them. We had to settle on M&M characters painted on a wall! Oh well, I can understand, I was deathly afraid of clowns when I was little!

Water Fun at Grandma and Grandpa Balaun's
Emily played in the sprinkler at grandma and grandpa's house. Then we went down to the water park for a little bit. She thought the water was a little cool! She is used to the warm water in Texas with 100 degree temps.

Happy 4th of July!
We watched fireworks two nights in a row. Friday night we watched them on Grandma Roe's balcony! Saturday night we had our own fireworks display. This was lots of fun for Emily and mommy too! We don't get to do fireworks in Texas so I think Emily really enjoyed it. She loved doing the smoke bombs and sparklers. She cried when it was all over and everyone was going home. She didn't want the fun to end!

We're going to the zoo!
We went to the zoo on Friday! The weather was really good. The animals were all out since it was pretty cool. We all took a train ride around Gage Park when we were done at the zoo.
