One to Three

Last week my sister went on a trip with her husband. She was nice enough to let me keep her two youngest for the week while she enjoyed some much needed quiet time.

Our week was filled with playing with cousins, trips to the park, coloring, cars, trucks, water gun fights (complete with the Davy Crockett hat so our hair doesn't get wet, although Emery did not so much like this), playing drums, airplanes, puzzles, bubble baths and of course the much needed naps. Here are just a few pictures of our week.

All of this

To end the week, we of course had to make welcome home signs for their mom and dad.


I have always told Cheree Emery was meant to be a second child because she loves it when her kids are around. Although three kids kept me on my toes a lot more than my one, we sure had a fun filled week.

What a good sister and aunt you are. Poor Clara, I'm so boring compared to people like you; there's always a fun activity around the corner.

You're such a great sister and a fun aunt. Thanks for the sweet comment you lfet on my blog. I didn't know you had a hard time with pregnancy. It touches my heart to hear other poeples struggles with this but i don't wish it on anyone. I'm so happy that you have little Emery she is truly a blessing. Carli if you're every in town give me a call will go to lunch or something. Your grandma has my number she's in my ward.

Look at you super Mom! I am so impressed that you tripled your child number and didn't go insane.
