Esme Loves Six Flags

I love going to Six Flags for the swimming. Esme loves the whole experience. There is one ride she can even go on all by herself now - a big apple with a caterpillar that goes around it. We went for a few hours today and as soon as we got in the car Esme said, "Again!"

Happy Anniversary to Us

Six years ago I married the world's most amazing man, and I have grown to love him more every day since then! I am so lucky to be married to Ethan. He's the only person I could imagine sharing my life with, the only person I'd want to raise a child with, and the most fascinating person I know.

Ethan on vacation.

Ethan is on vacation this week and we're loving it! We have taken Esme to a new playground, to the Children's Museum, and today we're taking her to Six Flags. Her favorite parts are The Apple and Up Down. Lisa's family is going today also so hopefully we'll run into them!

Esme is talking up a storm these days. When we ask what she wants to eat she always says applesauce, pizza, quesadillas, or tortellini. She'll also throw in ice cream but that's a long shot when it comes to dinner. She also gets very excited about playing computer games. She either wants to Play Elmo or Play E. Starfall is helping her to learn and recognize her letters.

The perfect man! 

We took Esme to a new playground today! She had a blast climbing over and under and running around! 

yawn and stretch!

I lovee thsi photo of Dylan - it was taken the weekend he spent at our house. He's such a sweetie pie! 

Esme loves her Daddy - she got to spend all day Tuesday with him one on one because I was sick. 

Esme recently took a ride on a Sesame Street fire truck! 

an important development in a baby's life

Esme has gotten very good at shaking her head no and nodding her head yes. The last couple days she's taken opportunties to yell, "No! No! No! No!" We're in for it!
