Emma is learning so much by watching her older sisters and brother. I was going to start blogging her new words each day and then realized that she's repeating everything we say. So unless I want to recite the dictionary I'm outta luck. However, today she did say "Mommy" for the first time. I've been Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma for the longest time, that it's sounds so sweet to me to hear her say my name... "Mommy".<span id="goog_1071475540"></span><span id="goog_1071475541"></span> Kathleenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00846390088015114049noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2960946928186811557.post-78486786145428393202011-03-18T15:44:00.000-07:002011-03-18T15:44:58.636-07:00Muffins for Mom's at Jessie's School<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRihGd5uzYuSzNfduE64q1DgArDYVKDnpY-uvzA94SvxwKwR81VtFF0x2XtYuxOF_fU8bx-qv-aPuHj4WG0b5NRxG_Hh6CLWHTY82Zw_8D8XGdaXRLFNGwjsH4zkIjv7ouWCU55ap7ITv_/s1600/2011-03-18+07.38.01-712285.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRihGd5uzYuSzNfduE64q1DgArDYVKDnpY-uvzA94SvxwKwR81VtFF0x2XtYuxOF_fU8bx-qv-aPuHj4WG0b5NRxG_Hh6CLWHTY82Zw_8D8XGdaXRLFNGwjsH4zkIjv7ouWCU55ap7ITv_/s320/2011-03-18+07.38.01-712285.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>We woke up extra early this morning to join Jessie at school for 'Muffins for Moms'.

Today the girls and I went to Home Depot to pick up a few flowers to plant in our garden, and ended up with more than that! In addition to the flowers we picked up some plants for our vegetable garden: broccoli, Roma tomato, sweet peas, brussel sprouts, red cabbage, Anaheim peppers, and super sweet 100 tomatoes.</div>Kathleenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00846390088015114049noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2960946928186811557.post-20706005870705778892011-03-03T12:22:00.000-08:002011-03-07T09:15:28.106-08:00Sarah's wish flower<div class="mobile-photo"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEho-6itYDBNAnyJzqiRCw71R1G3tbDys-NZr2Mdrq86U4AqQ8oCUxl9A-apaizvbkEvkRUsCUoliVyG6Taxy-Sc43cb0FcF-cUu6RzN5sO2MtcZQ62hNUS7vr3FlTJfQ9llkPlDVzGg-HzJ/s1600/2011-03-01+16.39.20-713547.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5579276398093790930" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEho-6itYDBNAnyJzqiRCw71R1G3tbDys-NZr2Mdrq86U4AqQ8oCUxl9A-apaizvbkEvkRUsCUoliVyG6Taxy-Sc43cb0FcF-cUu6RzN5sO2MtcZQ62hNUS7vr3FlTJfQ9llkPlDVzGg-HzJ/s320/2011-03-01+16.39.20-713547.jpg" /></a></div><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tbody>

The kids would all get soft serve ice cream: vanilla, chocolate or swirl, they called Tuesdays - "Tiny Tuesday". To this day Sarah still refers to this day of the week as "Tiny Tuesday", even though we don't go as often.Kathleenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00846390088015114049noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2960946928186811557.post-57440313130139665052011-02-28T22:49:00.000-08:002011-02-28T23:29:17.363-08:00The Calendar<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjA1Vg7pxH1RkUsKXoRGwFRK0u7prctYJylTdzhhUC5pn3SuT-Zr7PO-XjGpEIswp35p5wnyklUHLXU1hnWfeAcNxgwWFbi4Ui2rCFlT6wFH87tXzvNfC6XuGh_zn1_Ji9b7dUlJSmBHx6i/s1600/calendar.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjA1Vg7pxH1RkUsKXoRGwFRK0u7prctYJylTdzhhUC5pn3SuT-Zr7PO-XjGpEIswp35p5wnyklUHLXU1hnWfeAcNxgwWFbi4Ui2rCFlT6wFH87tXzvNfC6XuGh_zn1_Ji9b7dUlJSmBHx6i/s1600/calendar.jpeg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbBSQCPHqQhbjJ_z6dpKnhbpNGfs1U_NgPecyzrJ7zMna0d-LU0olHiEfMS-Eo3GgqTe1pz1h8NEZP0TgvaugOZ3YgyLlnamHEoaa-GIocTmJt6rDvnjYuyA0K5mn1zPAvs0ggZV9pth0y/s1600/h-calendar.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><br />
