A good pair of shoes...

...makes me happy. Specifically, a good pair of heels. HIGH heels.

You may recall Emerson's 6-month photo shoot, complete with her first pair of heels, courtesy of my mom and my Aunt Leann. To die for, right?

Well, they were definitely the hit at church today. She got quite a bit of attention, and it actually made her a bit shy. She buried her head in Cliff's chest as everyone was admiring her shoes in the parking lot after church. That sounds A LOT more like Cliff than me.

I'm making sure she is wearing these heels to appropriate occasions as often as possible since she is on the verge of walking. Once she starts walking, she won't get to wear these shoes! {yes, on the verge of walking....took about 4 steps last night. She has work to do on her balance, and believe me, we are not encouraging another young walker!}

And so of course, an impromptu photo shoot was necessary this afternoon. Isn't her dress DARLING? A colleague sent it as a gift when Emerson was born, and she is now fitting into it. Thanks, Debbie, it's beautiful!!

These two are SO cute to watch together these days. Stone can get Emerson laughing like no one else. She tries hard to keep up with him.

As far as this guy, he was also entertaining at church today. Sometimes he's a little less than quiet {HA} during church, and says things that make people around laugh, and make us cringe.

Some guys were quizzing Stone after church today on his superhero knowledge, and he passed with an A+. They asked him to show what each superhero does (i.e, Spiderman shoots his webs). I think they thought they were being sneaky when they pulled out Green Lantern, but had they known he was Green Lantern for his 3rd birthday, they would not have been so surprised. :)
Hope you had a great weekend!
