Just one of the boys

Emerson loves to play with Josh and Jackson from across the street. If she hears them outside, she insists on going over to play. Yesterday evening, lots of the kids from our street were outside playing and the ice cream truck passed.

Normally, she would be freaking that it was all over her and her clothes, but she could care less when she is with the boys. All of the kids are older than Emerson and they usually start playing a big kids game like softball or something. She just hangs back and takes it all in.

Once we got her home and cleaned up it was time for dinner. Yes, she had her dessert first. In Jackson, fun Aunt Shell let Isabella, Avery and Emerson make their own mini pizzas one night. AND I am SO fun they got to decorate and eat their own sugar cookie. I am so cool right now... Emerson really got into this, so I have decided we may do this every Friday night. She gets to make her own. Now keep in mind she eats more pepperoni than is actually on her pizza, but it is all about her doing it by herself.
