THANK YOU!

My teammates really made my day back to school on Monday very easy. Our wonderful assistant helped get the lessons all set so I could just walk in and TRY to get back on track...
They had a basket of birthday presents for Emma to help cheer us all up:) There was also a beautiful flower waiting to come home.... Now I just need to keep it alive!

THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DID!

YOUR SUPPORT HAS TRULY BEEN AMAZING!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

It was a very LONG week but here are some photos from the birthday girl.... I will get some more in the next few days.... we can pretend they were taken on 3-25.... Nobody needs to know they weren't!

Nothing like your first Birthday Present to BRIGHTEN your day!

I LOVE IT!
Thank you Ava, Aunt Haley and Uncle Craig!

Not bad for a last minute Birthday cake from Wegmans at 8:30AM:)
Thanks KIM!

Aidan wanted to do a surprise party for Emma this was his card!

She LOVED the cake!!!
I guess it was all the sweets I ate when I was pregnant!

MY REAL birthday- March 25, 2010!

I can be EVIL!

ANGRY....

and........

sweet....
all in the matter of MINUTES!

Uncle Bill gave me the BEST present....
A post-it pad of paper
and
let me play with the strap on his bag!

HELLO!!!

Watching a movie with Noah

Apparently she need a better view and standing a Noah was just the right booster!

Alex VERY QUICKLY became the BEST cousin!!!
He gave E his cell phone to play with!

A friend of Jeff's from High School (Kristy) was VERY sweet and brought Emma a Birthday present to the calling hours. It was the sweetest gesture because she had never met me or Emma. This Baby also gave E HOURS of entertainment in the car!
THANK YOU KRISTY, HOWARD and HOPE for coming a thinking of Emma too!

Emma got to ride on Noah's Grand-Bob's horse and carriage. Although it doesn't look like she was enjoying it.... she did. she was smiling right before the camera came out...

SWEET cousins enjoying their ride! At least Noah was smiling!

WE LOVE YOU!

I was not sure how to start this post or what to say..... I started with writing a ton and then deleted and rewrote and rewrote again..... I have decided short and sweet is what would mean the most...

Last Thursday, March 18, 2010 Emma lost her Pap-pap very unexpectedly. It has been a very hard time for all of us and he will be greatly missed. Emma and I are very happy that he raised two AMAZING sons who became wonderful husbands and the BEST daddy's a little girl and little boy could ask for and became wonderful Uncle's.
We thank everyone for their prayers and kind words and ask that you continue praying for our family as we continue to go through this new adventure in life.

Pap-pap and I, when I was born

Already in LOVE with one another! This was just minutes after I finally came home!

Whats out there?
Pap-pap let me play with the blinds:)
Something mommy and daddy do not let me do!

HAPPY TURKEY DAY!

Pap-Pap sure showed Emma how to enjoy shoes.
Every time I see her playing with her shoes I remember this and how she just sat there
and laughed with him for about an hour over a pair of sneakers.
He taught her to enjoy the simple things at a young age... Along with many other things!

WE LOVE YOU AND WILL MISS YOU!
Your lessons and Memories will be forever remembered and I can never thank you enough for giving me an amazing husband and father for Emma!
