Watertown Jan. 2009

We made it back from Watertown and are tired but had a wonderful time. I told Josh, I am not sure the last time we went to Watertown where it was so quiet and relaxing. Just hung out and did NOTHING!! It was PERFECT!! Emmi and I went to the library one morning, celebrated her 4th birthday with both sets of grandparents/great grandparents, went to a few Arrow activities, and both got our hair done. Emmi really bonded with Lexie the cat while we were back. Emmi would manage to sneak up on Lexie while she was sleeping and pick her up and carry her through out the house :) She LOVED her (emmi loved the cat that is)!! The weather managed to hang out around 40 degrees while we were back too..not to bad since it was -30 a week before. It is nice to be back home and in our own routine again but we really enjoy our "girl vacations" too :) Who knows the next time we will be back in Watertown...or how much of a vacation it will be with a new little one. I told my parents prepare your cat..with a new crying baby and Emmi on her tail...she isn't going to like us sleeping over :) haha! Anyways, it was a GREAT time!!

Since Emmi had a double ear infection I told her she couldn't go outside and play until Friday (supposed to the warmest day). Every morning she woke up and asked if it was Friday yet..she was so excited and loved playing out in the snow...just not getting wet.
Already to head outside...
Emmi and "her cat". She kept telling me that daddy wanted her to bring the cat home to our house.
Emmi got lots of her own make-up and lip glosses for her birthday. We went to Watertown sharing a travel-on and ended up purchasing an overweight checked bag for the way home...we still had to leave the 4 pounds of make-up in Watertown for next time. 
While Josh and I went to NY this fall, Emmi stayed in Watertown and found all my ballet costumes...it was one of the 1st things she asked for when we walked in the door.
