I really don't know where the time has gone...how can she be 4 already? Our little lady is full of spunk and personality. She has an incredibly sweet, thoughtful, and giving side, but is usually more comfortable being the center of attention and running the show. Emmie loves music and has an incredible knack for memorizing song lyrics and actually singing fairly on-key for a 4 year old. She has endless amounts of energy and doesn't stop moving until she goes to bed each night. We love every moment (and every challenge) of being her parents. We are so blessed.
Emerson usually has about a month-long birthday celebration because we celebrate with the family we are with at Thanksgiving and then at Christmas and everyone we see in between! She is a lucky girl! This year, after her breakfast of choice (french toast sticks dipped in syrup), we went to church, and then surprised her with lunch at Chuck E. Cheese's after that. She was so excited and we had a wonderful day together celebrating her and the joy she is!

| She got a Xia Xia crab for her birthday from us and she was so excited! She loves sea creatures (wonder where she picked that up?) |
Nana came to visit a few weekends before her birthday and made her a special Barbie cake (oh the excitement!) Emmie got to help bake and decorate and she loved every minute of her special Nana time :-)
When I asked her what kind of cake she wanted for her birthday, she said the "ice cream kind with the cookies on it". She had a Coldstone cake for her 2nd birthday and apparently she remembered it so we got another!
