Bottle Day!!

She took it (from Cal)!!!! Wow, I was surprised :) Hopefully it wasn't just beginner's luck! We'll keep giving Emerson a bottle every now and then to make sure she continues to take it. Only problem with giving Emerson a bottle today was ... Blake! I think he had bottle envy! I weaned him just before 11 months and then he switched over to a sippy cup at around 13 months, so he had a bottle three times a day for a whopping 3 months and yet every time he sees a bottle he wants one!!

We had a good weekend. Friday night a former co-worker of Cal's came over to borrow our truck for the weekend and we ended up visiting until 1 am! It was nice to catch up and chat. Saturday morning my Mom came in and picked up Blake. They went to the pancake breakfast, parade and fair grounds to take in some Farmer's Days events! Blake apparently had a great time! He spent the night in Stony Saturday night. Saturday afternoon Cal, Em and I went to my friend/co-worker Kathryn's wedding. It was a beautiful wedding! Sunday morning we met my parents for brunch and spent the rest of the day around home. It is my parents 29th wedding anniversary today! Happy anniversary Mom and Dad :) I aspire to be as in love as you two on my 29th wedding anniversary!

Cal has Monday off. Well, actually he's working O.T. from home on Monday, but he's been working off and on all weekend in the evening or when the kids are sleeping, so the daytime is ours tomorrow :) I love his job!!!! We plan on visiting the park and Toys R Us tomorrow. We're looking for a goalie helmet for Blake. He is currently using his hockey helmet as a goalie helmet. He turns the hockey helmet into a goalie helmet by pulling it over his face!!! I guess he's creating a goalie mask! No big plans for the remainder of the week. The usual - preschool Wednesday, swimming lessons Thursday!

Have a great week everyone! I hear it's supposed to be a sunny week! Which is good, but I wouldn't mind a little rain during the evening to help green up our grass!!

Wow - she surprised us with that bottle! And Blake too. If I didn't have pics of dad giving him a bottle I would barely remember he had one:)
Have a great day tomorrow - let me know about the helmet.
Love mom

That's great that Em has taken a bottle! Hopefully it sticks and she'll continue to willingly whenever offered! Hmm, little boys can be funny, hey?! Especially about baby things! Enjoy your day tomorrow with Cal home... I'm sure it will be great, as always! Can't wait to see you guys more often in the summer when we have some more time... and everyday off!! Yippee!!
