Emily: May 2010
http://halaylah-emily.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
A Day at the Beach. Last year, when we moved to Portland, on the night before my mom arrived here with Emily, Ken and I drove out to the coast and saw the ocean by moonlight. To commemorate our first year here, we decided to go to the beach again, and this time we made a day trip of it. We went to Seaside and let Emily play on the beach. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Emily: April 2010
http://halaylah-emily.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
At the PSU Campus, headed to the Farmer's Market. The Carousel at Jantzen Beach. At the Portland Children's Museum. After a little face-painting. Emily in her new yellow swimsuit. We had a big Easter weekend. We went to the Zoo on Saturday for their "Rabbit Romp." Emily got to hunt for Easter eggs with a bunch of other kids, and we got to see some animals too. The helpers kept encouraging her and making sure there was lots of stuff for her to find, and eventually she got some treats in her basket. Sh...

Emily: The Birthday Princess
http://halaylah-emily.blogspot.com/2011/02/birthday-princess.html
We celebrated Emily's birthday tonight with our Life Group. She got a new dress when she got home from school so that she would have something new and exciting to wear, and we also let her put on her wings and crown. Daddy made her birthday cake while she was at school, too - chocolate cake, shaped like a castle, with pink sparkles! And Emily blew the candles out just like a pro. It was a good celebration, but it was a long night with perhaps with just a little too much excitement (and way too much sugar!

Emily: January 2010
http://halaylah-emily.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
We were reading one of Emily's books and we came to the page with all kinds of musical instruments. She didn't know what a harmonica was, so I went and got the one I had, from a Blues Traveler concert (played by John Popper himself! Before long, not only was she making sounds with the harmonica, but she started singing "Jesus Loves Me" and accompanying herself between lines of the song! She didnt know, so I brought her out into the light, and showed her her shadow on the floor, then on the wall. She ...

Practicing my Photoshop skills with a photo of Emily by the fountain. At the Peninsula Park Rose Garden. Ok, so Ken and I ended up doing most of the actual planting - but Emily was right there watching and asking questions, and patting and poking, and pouring potting soil from one container into another. The strawberry plants had some little flowers on them already, and Emily was fascinated when I told her that the flowers were going to turn into strawberries! Jumping on the couch. Ken was making din...

When we got home, we took some pictures on the play area at our new apartment. She looks so cute - and she reminds me a little of Ramona Quimby now. I guess that's appropriate, since we live in Portland now,. And Emily really is like Ramona in a lot of ways. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I don't want to see any Irish Dancing.

Emily: The Story of the Rainbow
http://halaylah-emily.blogspot.com/2010/12/story-of-rainbow.html
The Story of the Rainbow. Once upon a time there was a beautiful Rainbow that stretched all the way across the sky. A little pink princess saw the Rainbow, and saw that it ended right on top of her house! She ran to tell her mother, the queen, but when they went back to look at it later, it was gone. It must have gone home to eat its breakfast," the queen told the princess. But the princess knew that couldn't be true, because rainbows don't eat breakfast. Well, what do they eat? Please don't put your for...
