Well, I really don't know where to begin. We have had a busy month of May. We have been helping Grammy at the ballpark. Wes has been busy taking pictures, but I think he has decided to just stick to taking Emma Grace pictures. He might do a little here and there, but nothing like we have been doing. We went to a festival in Columbia on the 19th. We made around $240. A lady from Houston ordered some hair bows for her little girl. I have been working on them for her. I am almost finished with them. We are trying to get stuff ready for the Peach festival in Ruston on June 23. Wes will just be coming back from a conference in Pittsburgh. That is also the start of the all-star tournament at the ballpark. Emma Grace is getting so big. She is saying more and more stuff. She can repeat the beginning of one Dora DVD. We laughed her the other evening while we were going to Abby's dance recital. By the way, Emma Grace enjoyed. She was dancing and moving right along with them. She LOVES "Abbbbbeeeeee". She loves going to the ballpark, but bless her heart we have to keep her in her wagon. She occasionally gets to run around, but most of the time we are so busy. She loves to get her "bat" and "ball" and play ball. She will say ballgame. Last night, she grabbed her bat and stuck her little booty out just like she was getting ready to hit the ball. She has been doing so much lately that I cannot remember it all. We haven't been outside much lately because about two weeks ago I forgot my cell phone and came back to the house to get it and a little friend was at the door. Needless to say, I DIDN'T go in and get my phone. I had to talk myself into going in the door after coming back from where I was going. It wasn't very big, but it was a snake. I was just glad Emma Grace was in the car, because I know what she would be running around saying. She has taken a loving to "shhhooooozzzz"; however, she likes to wear them on her hands. She will occasionally put them on her feet and usually gets them on the correct foot. She loves to get my dad's hat and wear it around. She will even get her old hats or bonnets and put them on. It wasn't too long ago that she DIDN'T want anything on her head. Wes hasn't had time to post any photos lately, but we have lots. Grammy has painted Emma Grace's fingernails and toenails recently. She has to wait till she goes to sleep. If you try to do while she is awake, she screams ouch. She doesn't want you to hold her hand or feet. She is a talking machine. We were in Target today checking out and she was talking it up. A lady on the next checkout was laughing so hard at her. She turned around and starting talking to Emma Grace and Emma Grace just talked and talked to her. As we were leaving, she said bye baby and Emma Grace said bye, but looked for her baby that was in the stroller. She LOVES toast. Any kind of bread is toast, and you can put anything with it and she will eat only the toast. Her arm hasn't popped out again, but we have been very careful with it. She has gotten her summer wardrobe, and I think she can go through August without wearing the same thing. Oh, well, I think have rambled enough. Emma Grace is sleeping and so I am headed that way too. Later…
