Emily's New Dress

"Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; 

but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised."  

Proverbs 31:30

It seems that Emily is getting quite used to having her picture taken. I hope this isn't a bad thing. Heidi bought her a new dress, one we both liked a lot, and she asked me to takes some pictures of her in it.












She also got a "new" sweater. I got it at Goodwill for 2.99, and I think it matched the dress very nicely.








Emily was then done with her picture shoot on the stool, and wanted to interact with her favorite doll, the one she is the most devoted to.

She laid her down for a nap on the stairs, but changed her mind, and took her upstairs to put her to bed in the crib. And then she went over to the table to turn on the music box (referred to as "sica box" by Emily), so that the baby would go to sleep.



So while "baby" slept I took Emily to get her ready for her nap. But she wanted to wear her jammies, which were down stairs, so we retrieved "baby", and went down stairs for a while.





Emily then went down for a nap, and had a nice long nap, but unfortunately she woke up very unhappy. I let her fuss for a while and then I suggested that we go into the kitchen and make cookies, and she perked right up.
