So I finally made that strawberry-rhubarb sauce. I tried to give it to Emily straight, but she didn't really seem interested. Later I put some on ice cream (my favorite way to eat it), and then she couldn't get enough of it. So that's fine. We'll work her up to eating rhubarb straight.
A week ago I got Emily a pair of white Sunday shoes at a garage sale. They're the mary jane style with a velcro strap. Well, since there are all broken in, Emily can open and close the straps easily. She's been taking off her shoes for months, but now she can even put those shoes on! They're not always on the right feet, but that doesn't take long to fix.
The last couple of days we've spent a bunch of time in the car. On our way home the other night Emily decided to start playing a game with us. She had a blanket on her lap, and she pulled it over her head. Brian and I asked "Where's Emily?" and then she'd pull it down and giggle. I think she could have kept it up for hours! We've played that game at home if Brian or I throw the blanket on her head, but this time she started it. I'm glad she keeps herself amused and is such a good traveler!

Last Week
Last Sunday Emily spent the day running around with Uncle Chad and Aunt Kim. They were in town for an anniversary celebration. Then on Monday Grandma and Grandpa Unnasch were in town and we went to Minneopa to grill out for Memorial Day. There Emily "played" frisbee and ran around for quite a while. So the next couple of days she took really good naps. :) It was really fun to see everyone, though!
I'm glad it's summer now because Emily can't get enough fruit! I cut up the watermelon my mom brought and I think she'd eat the whole thing in one sitting if I let her. This afternoon she went over to the fridge, and after I opened it she went after a container of strawberries. I'm hoping to make some strawberry-rhubarb sauce. We'll see how she likes that!
On Saturday I found a bedrail for a twin bed at a garage sale. My parents brought my old twin bed from their house, so now we just have to get that all set up and Emily will have a big girl bed! I don't know which day we're going to tackle getting that up and her crib down. Otherwise it's been a nice, quiet week.
