Emery learns to Swim

The first class last week was 45 mins and Emery was so scared she only did 10 minutes. This week she did all 45 mins and wanted more.

Emery is very independent and did everything the instructor asked and wanted more shouting

I want to do it again Roberto!

After we dried up, we passed the big pool. Emery was very inspired by the older kids swimming and wanted to do that asking me lots of questions about their flippers and boards. She did great swimming today and was not scared at all. The instructor feels that she should be ready for the next level soon!

I told her next time she sees Meagan and Dylan she can swim with then!

More Halloween Fun

We went to a Holloween party hosted by Emery’s “old” classmate, Amelia.  It was a great party and all the kids came dressed up.  Most of them were 3 years old so Emery had a great time running around the park and eat candy, cupcakes and all the things Ash would prefer she not eat.  Here’s Emery in her Mini Mouse outfit with Amelia and also a group shot.

Later that evening, we carved our Halloween pumpkin.  Unfortunately we packed all of our candles so we’ll have to post the spooky outcome later.  Even those these picks makes it seem I did all the work, Ashley actually cut a good amount and I just stole all the photo opts. hehehe

Apple Picking & Spooky Treats

This past friday we took Emery to halloween fest in Roswell and she hung out with Kate and Lucas.  This weekend and today we took Emery apple picking with the Lo’s.  Emery and Eva darted from tree to tree picking up apples and having a blast poking them with sticks.  Then today Ashley and Emery went to Marianela’s house and they made monster marshmellows and gingerbread houses!

Jelly Fish at the GA Aquarium

We bought a annual membership to the Georgia aquarium. It’s the largest in the world, I think. It’s certainly the best one I have ever been to. Here some snaps of Jelly fish and us.

We bought Emery a little punk penguin from the gift shop to replace her very over chewed and yucky “dolphy” which sometimes she calls “sock”. She picked out the pink penguin herself and called her “Penguey”. I thought it was a very smart name and definitely took the family name well. 🙂
