Grandma Diane's House

Ember hangs out with her cousin, Engracia. And all is well.


Auntie T helps Ember with her crunches so she can stay in shape.


Ember likes Mommy's cousin, Kevin.


Auntie T is working Ember to the bone. Nothing's ever good enough for her!


See what happens when you work me too hard!


Luckily, Grandma stepped in so we could show Auntie T who's boss.


And, mommy showed up after all that drama for a picture opportunity (and to dry Ember off after a bath).

Great Grand ma ma's House

Ember and Ericka got to go down for a couple days for Engracia's bday. They were able to go meet Great grandma and meet/see some more family.

Grandma meeting Ember for the first time. Being looked over by Great Grandma Jeffers, Grandma Janice and Aunt Jenna.

Day at the Beach

Yesterday we went to Cannon beach. There ended up being a sand castle competition so that was a plus. We walked quite a ways and then noticed it was starting to get cooler. We turned around and to our surprise got a lovely shower. That was quite a brisk walk back through the rain and sand.





And behind us is Haystack rock. No Goonies ship in sight today.






And here is Ember feeding herself.

Cousin Anthony's Visit

Last week Ember's cousin, Anthony, stayed for the week to visit with her.


He had fun disrupting her playtime, which she also enjoyed.


Lastly, we cornered him for a pose with his cousin and aunt.
