A Thousand Words...


This picture really contains a thousand words. First of all, much to her daddy's delight, Emily is carrying on a proud Lorenzen tradition of LOVING popcorn. I gave her some for the first time this week and now she asks for "pop" as a "snack" often. Austin will have to increase the amount he makes on Sunday nights!

Secondly, as you'll notice, Emily is wearing a 'beautiful' purple "neck-sis". It's really an elastic woven hair band that has been overstretched, but she proudly wears it every day. :o)

Thirdly, you'll notice Emily has an attentive audience. I've left the gate off for a week now and let Emily & Cheney interact all day. It has been a process of learning about 'sharing' for both of them. Emily tends to find Cheney's "bone" and proceed to try to shove it in his mouth. Then when he actually reacts and tries to take it she won't let go and gets upset because he's trying to get it. They pester each other once in a while, too. I figure it's a small taste of what it's like to have more than one kid! ;o) Of course, Emily is also learning that it's fun to 'share' her food with Cheney at the dinner table, and he is much obliged. We have been trying to curb that habit.
