We spent Thurs-Sat in Des Moines because Austin had political meetings to attend. Emily got to hang out with Grandpa & Grandma Lorenzen a lot. She especially enjoyed walking around in the rain puddles. :o)
Emily proved herself to be a little monkey, though. On Thursday night Austin & I were out at a reception so Grandma Lorenzen put her to bed in the little port-a-crib borrowed from Great-Grandma Freking. It's basically the size of a Pack 'N Play but looks like a wooden crib with spindles. Emily protested when Grandma left room, but by the time Grandma had walked down the hallway to her own room she heard a noise behind her and turned to see Emily following her. It took less than 30 seconds for Emily to figure out how to climb out and pull open the door. Little stinker! So Grandpa & Grandma had to haul out the Pack 'N Play and try again. We put Emily back into the port-a-crib the next morning to see if she would show us how she got out, but she just got mad and sat down (see video). I guess we'll never know!
Emily loved playing with Copper (the dog) and practiced saying "Cop-uh" for days before. They had to learn to share just like Emily & Cheney. Here is Emily crawling into Copper's basket of toys after hauling them all out.
