Emma turns 10

I remember being pregnant with Emma like it was yesterday. I swelled up like some huge balloon. My feet swelled up to the point my shoes barley fit and she is the one to blame for my 2 stretch marks :( My doctor believes a woman should not suffer during child birth so since she measured 40 weeks even though I was only 38 they went ahead and induced me...Thank goodness! They were going to do it on my Bday but I said is there any way we can do it the next day so she can have her own day? They said that they could do that and it was set for 6:00 am Tuesday April 18Th. I showed up bright and early that sunny morning so happy to be having a little girl. I already knew her name was Emma. Figured that out about 5 months along. Heard the name somewhere and I loved it, it just stuck with me. I of course had purchased everything in the world that was pink and was so happy for this day. I had her that after noon at 2:39 pm she weighed 8 pds 9 oz 21 inch long. Good thing we didn't wait any longer. My goodness! Emma was the best baby. She loved to eat and sleep. I think she was sleeping through the night at about 4 weeks old. This little butterball was the happiest baby.
Fast forward 10 years and she had grown in to a sweet girl. I am so proud of her. She loves to be the center of attention. She loves to perform. She loves Miley Cyrus. She loves Justice for girls. She loves the color Pink. She loves being with her mother :) She loves having a lot of friends. She loves her school teacher (which is really is super great I love her too) She loves all kinds of food. She loves to collect Webkinz. She loves boating. She loves riding motorcycles or 4wheelers. She loves camping. She loves being the big sister to Gabe and Lauren, and she wishes she saw her older brother Jacob more. She has the biggest heart and loves taking care of little kids. She is going to be the best babysitter! I'm counting down the days. Happy Birthday Emma we love you!

We went to Boondocks for her party and it was a blast! Pizza, Go Karts, Miniature Golfing, Laser Tag and playing games. Her best of friends came and she had a blast. She got a lot of great gifts from Justice (imagine that) and got a new cell phone. She was so surprised and the phone has not left her side since. Here is a few pictures from the night.
