little miss emma beaner

After dinner tonight, Emma asked if she could have a sucker. Both Tony and I told her no. A few minutes later, we saw her eating it. Tony told her to go throw it in the garbage, because we told her no. She looked at us and said, "Actually, it opened by itself." I couldn't stop laughing long enough to discipline her. Tony on the other hand put her in a time out for lying.

We've had a pretty crazy weekend. Emma's had her sinus gunk again. It's going on 2.5 weeks. Abby has her 6-year-old check up tomorrow, so I'm going to try to get Emma in at the same time. Poor girlie needs some antibiotics.

Yesterday was Abby's 6th birthday. She had been saving up for an American Girl Doll. After her party, she had enough saved up, so we made a quick run to the mall. Emma has wanted a bitty baby ever since the first time we stepped foot into the store. We gave Abby money for her doll as a birthday gift, so we did the same for Emma and she got to pick out her baby. She was SO excited. It was funny watching her carry this big box around the store. She wanted to carry her bag to the car and refused help. Hilarious watching her try to drag it along! She named her baby Angel a. Yes, angel, with an a at the end, but not angela. She named her baby's bear Tisdale!

I needed to go to Rosedale for something last night, so Tony took the girls to the Northwoods Play Area while I shopped. I met up with them after a bit. They were so well behaved and having the time of their life!! They played SO hard! Emma found a little boy about her age that she befriended. She kept calling after him, "Hey You" One would walk away to play with something else and the other would notice they were gone and start looking for them. It was pretty cute! Because they were SO good we're going to the MOA today because I didn't find everything I was looking for. She's excited!
