Emma and Abby Update

While Ray was in Tennessee I had several days of quality time with my girls. One of the things we did was go to lunch together just the three of us. Our girls really enjoy Mexican food, so I took them to Casa Ole. I was able to get Emma to eat a cheese enchilda for the 1st time. They were super sweet, well behaved and we made a really nice memory together.
 

 Emma Elizabeth will be 5 in seven days and a part of our preparations for her special day was shopping for one of her outfits for pictures. We went to Kohl's and she had a great time looking over the selection before settling on this super cute dress.

 As you can tell from the pictures of our Abby Grace - who now tells you her name is Abigail, she has enjoyed several naps no matter where she is.... She is in the stage of severe independence and not wanting to nap even though her little body really needs them.

There have been several days of just playing with their blocks, princess castle, Octonauts etc... then you have days where they just want to dress up and have you take pictures of them. We have had races in the house, games of tag, playing hula hoop with Poppa, and just being loving, sweet, girls.  "Homework" is a time where they sit at the table and work in binders that we created with some work for both girls. They really like doing school work and we pray this continues until they are out of college.
