Waiting in the “Relaxation Room” before her pedicure appointment

There was nothing “relaxing” about it

Emily was a little nervous about her first pedicure

Phuong Li starts her pedicure

It was really just a polish, not a full-on pedicure

Emily sat perfectly still & was such a good girl

She was so happy


Emily’s cute toes with the toe seperator that was way too big for her petite little foot

Phuong Li even drew a beautiful white flower with a sparkly purple middle on both of her big toes


Cute little toesies drying

Suzy Q), Uncle Scott, Brynn & Kedryn for the adorable dresses & gorgeous hot pink jacket for Emily’s 4th BD!

Here Emily is modeling the fuchsia butterfly one piece tutu dress

Next up is the pretty classic tailored white & hot pink carnation dress

Third up is the stunning sparkly crown one piece black & white polka dotted tutu dress

Princess Emily knows she looks good in this one! :-)

This black & white tutu is perfect with it’s soft flouncy ruffles

Last, but certainly not least is a gorgeous, incredibly soft, hot pink faux fur jacket. Perfect for those chilly California evenings. She is less than thrilled to be modeling this particular item since it’s nearing 88 degrees here this afternoon! :-)

THANKS TO SUZY Q, UNCLE SCOTT, BRYNN & KEDRYN!

Emily had her 4 year check-up yesterday afternoon

She is 38 3/4 inches tall (70th percentile)

She weighs 36 lbs which is also in the 70th percentile

She looks happy & content here; however, this was prior to the shots! She wasn’t happy about those! :-(

Things are a changing! Instead of playing in the sand box or with trains or stuffed animals … we are now moving to video games during our playdates.

Max, Brennan & Christian are playing some Wii race car game

They were quite active & vocal while playing

Emily wants to give it a go

Christian was teaching his friends and stomping the competition

Max was putting his full body into the game!

Liam, Brennan’s gorgeous younger brother, just watching the crazies play

Max intently playing the Wii race car game with chocolate chip cookie on his face

Christian, the happy winner of every single Wii race car game

Brennan, preferring to be a spectator, excitedly telling Max which way to turn his car

Olivia, Christian’s cute younger sister, would occasionally walk into the room and give Christian a hug as he was playing the Wii game
