For all of my growing up, I always said that I wanted all boys. Mostly because I figured they would be easier, especially in the teenage years. For those who know me well, you know I am not a drama girl, I just don't handle it very well. Guys reactions to situations always made more sense to me than girls, I am sure it is a product of 5 older brothers. Well, here I am with my 2 girls. Don't get me wrong, I still have nightmares about what our teenage years could be like but lately I've had some little insights to how fun having girls can be and will be in the future. Believe me, Emily definately have some drama mama in her but for the most part she is the most fun girl. And of course, Lauren just like a little doll. Emily lately has just said the funniest things. Here are a few glimpes into our girl:
Last week, I was getting ready for Young Women's (always a challenge since I would still like to appear like I am cool). When I came out Emily said "Oh, Mom.. cute purse. You look so cute." I know she's only two but I still had to feel pretty good.
At the stores, mostly Target, she is always picking up clothes and saying "Look Mom, this is cute."
Today we drove by the mall and she said to me "Let's go to the mall and buy me a new cute dress." I told her she didn't need a new dress and she told me "I need a new cute dress for church." I was practically waiting for her to tell me she had nothing to wear. It's begun.
Last week she was supposed to start dance class. When we went to get ready she threw a fit and wouldn't put her clothes on. I told her that I wasn't going to pay for her to go to class if I had to fight her every week. She told me, "That's fine, I'll just dance at home." And believe me she does. Anytime there's any music, she definately gets her groove on. We are thinking she is more of a freestyle dancer and the class setting just doesn't suit her.
I could go on forever. She's such a funny kid. She definately keeps us on our toes.

You are in for it! We love Emily! She sure is cute!
It seems like Lauren is more mello... so maybe the teenage years won't be so bad cause they will cancel eachother out. :)
Well...you did always say that if you weren't LDS, you'd be quite the crazy dancing fool. You always got your groove on at BYU, so I'm sure you've trained Emily well for this. Those shopping quotes of Emily's remind me of you too! I hope that they'll be good for you! I fear the teenage girl years too! Yikes! Although...Mitchell is plenty of drama, almost worse than a girl!
Haha that is so cute! For what it's worth, I think you're cool! :)
