Big Help

We have been loving this weather the past week.  You wouldn't know that it was snowing a week ago and there were icicles hanging from our roof.  I don't feel like we have had our usual Mississippi winter, with the weather going from sunny and 75 one day to 30 degrees the next.  I can recall many Christmas breaks when I was younger that I wanted to spend everyday in shorts in flip flops.  For the most part, this winter has been gloomy and chilly with an occasional sunny 60 degree day to perk up our spirits.  This 70 degree weather has been much needed and very welcomed at our house.  Almost every afternoon the past week has been spent like this.  In little to no clothing and snacking on the back patio.  Emma absolutely loves being outside.  Wanting to go out at every chance possible and, this week, I have been happy to oblige.  Jonathan and I had to have a conversation on appropriate attire for Emma in this warmer 'winter' season.  I got up the other morning to him dressing her in a little summer tank dress and bloomers.  He informed me that it was hanging next to her a Christmas dress (I reorganized her closet that afternoon).  I had to explain to him that yes, the temps were up, but that doesn't mean Emma can wear skimpy clothes and sandals.  It's still February. 

When Emma woke up from her nap this afternoon, Jonathan was outside washing his truck and Emma decided she wanted to help.  I'm sorry for picture overload, but she was so funny helping her pops.

She started just testing the bubbles.

Going a little deeper.

Making bubble pancakes.

Taking daddy's sponge.

"Whoooaa.." the water was a little chilly.

Bubble pancake on Em's head.

and a little for the face.

Soooo much fun!

Splashing...

Getting ready for a big splash!

And she's soaking wet.

Big splashes!

Wondering why it was raining on the other side of daddy's truck.

This little tot is so much fun! It's the little things that keep us amused.


Happy 14 month birthday sweet girl!
