Mommy and Daddy love me very much. However, Daddy says that my name must be periodically influencing my behavior. Yes, you read that correctly.  The only anagram for my name in common use is: "bothering".  Yup.  "Bothering".  Daddy did a face-palm and rolled his eyes when he typed my name in. (This is from the WolframAlpha Widgets website: Anagrams)

My basic dialog lately. Mommy: Emmerson can you say "CAR"? Me: NO Mommy: Emmerson can you say "FISH"? Me: NO Mommy: Emmerson can you say "NO"? Me: NO. *pause* OH, YESSSSSSSSS. *laugh* I like to say "Oh, yessssss". It cracks Mommy and Daddy up! On other notes: I have put #2 in the potty three times this week. GO ME! My diaper was dry all day as well today! I am getting closer to potty training but Mommy is not pushing it.

Today we went to Clearwater Main Library to see a show called Wonders of Nature. This may have been the best and most interactive show I have ever seen with animals! I got a seat in the front row with a group of my friends. We were all glued to the show. The show started out with "Jedi the Augur Buzzard". He is basically a hawk! Matt Edmonds', the teacher, held him on his glove so [...]

We have been very busy since we got home to Florida. We cleaned the house from top to bottom. We spent several days Letterboxing in a local park. I am reconnecting with the toys and stuffed animals I left for nearly a month while we were on vacation! Mommy has been trying to schedule lots of play dates so we can see our local friends again. I got to go swimming in Lochness at Innisbrook [...]

We got back in town late late Sunday night after a long drive home on US19! Very pretty drive and no highway stress for Daddy but I just wanted to be home. We spent the entire day Monday recovering from the trip: unpacking, cleaning the house and playing with all the toys we missed for the near month we were gone. Tuesday I spent the day with friends (without Emmerson!!!!) and we went Letterboxing at Philipee [...]

I had a blast with my cousins today. Aunite Kim, Her friend Gary and my cousins (Anna and Ian) stopped by on their was home from Virginia Beach. I enjoyed the morning showing them my tree fort and then a hike down to the bridge. Cousin Ian is crazy! He climbs everything! If it is high off the ground he NEEDS to find a way to climb it! We had a very busy day at the [...]

We had a busy day again today. We took a trip to Cradle of Forestry again. Aunite Kim (her Friend Mr. Gary) and Cousins Anna and Ian came into town late last night. I haven't seen them in a long time so this was a real treat for Emmerson and me. He enjoyed a long drive and them some lunch and a long walk. I liked playing in the box of sawdust. I have a future career as [...]

Today I tagged along to Breighton's "Woodsy Owl's" class "poking in the pond". I am truly Breighton's shadow. I wanted to do everything he was doing. I didn't care that the class was for 4-7 year olds. I am 2 and a HALF (tomorrow at least I will be 2.5!!) and I will do what I want!!! I didn't leave the bucket. I had to check out each bug that was put in. I have ZERO [...]

Today we went to the Cradle of Forestry for the Woodsy Owl's Club. The theme was "poking around the pond". If you know me you know that there is nothing in life that makes me happier than being knee deep in muck looking for bugs! There were about 25 kids plus their adults at the meeting today. We all had to learn about Smokey the Bear and Woodsy the Owl and their mottos. We learned [...]

We went to Bryson City, NC to go on a CHOO CHOO ride today! I was SO HAPPY! I got completely lost with the trains. I fell in love. I want trains all over the place! trains trains trains! Mommy had to keep picking me up to see the trains. Then some time at the play train table. Then back over to watch "Thomas" go around the train with his coaches! CHOO CHOO Me HAPPY! Daddy took his whirl [...]
