We now have 3 kids in double digits, which just means time is going too fast and they are all getting to old. Sunday Emery turned 10 and she couldn't have been more excited to do so. It took her a while to finally pick what she wanted to do for her birthday but she finally settled on a movie. We went and saw "A House With a Clock in it's Walls." It was a little scary at parts but the girls loved it.
Emery didn't want to sit next to us, they wanted to sit alone. She was mad we came because the boys (the 12 year old boys) are allowed to go to a movie with just their friends.
After we went home and had Chick Fil A nuggs, cupcakes and presents.
I think she had a really good time with her friends who were able to come. She likes spending time with friends and having the birthday attention on her.
Emery has grown so much this year, maybe not it height, but in pre teen attitude and acting. She is still doing so well in school and is very happy she has the teacher she does. Her first boy teacher seems like a big deal to her. I'm not sure she really likes math as much as she did in the past, but she likes the rest of school. Emery and Jacks are still the best of friends. She says she gets tired of him and sharing a room, but I know she depends on him just as much he does her. She loved playing school on Grandma's school boards. Emery is really good at getting what she wants, mainly from Brad, but I was the same way. The perks of being an only girl. Emery love girl days. She likes going to lunch and then we have to shop after. I've never cared as much about an outfit as she does. She could shop everyday all day, its her favorite thing to do, put out new clothes. At least once a week she tells me a new outfit she needs and why, like new shorts that she can wear PE day so she can move around better. It has started to get colder so I has changed to leggings now. Then a jacket she saw she needs because it would be totally cute with pants she has. She also HAD to have a robe. That she did get for her birthday and has actually worn it a lot more than I thought she ever would have. She is like me with hair. She cares so much about what she wears, and even tired to get me to let her wear makeup but her hair looks like she doesn't have a parent to tell her to brush it. (I guess in all fairness neither brad nor I do tell her to) She could go days without brushing it if we don't remind her, but her outfit need to be on point. (this is totally not a complaint, I love it). Looking back, Emery had a fun year. She loved playing soccer and did great in that. Softball was even better. Brad said she had a .750 batting. She can't wait for those sports to start again. Emery was in a play and while she had her days where she didn't want to go, she loved it for the most part. Her favorite thing has to be when she was a flower girl in her cousins wedding. She did have to get her tonsils out but she also got to quit doing piano. Looking back at all of the pictures she has really gone from looking like a little baby girl to a almost young woman (don't' speed it up too much). Emery is so kind to everyone and really values her friends, she is a great friend and sister. She is always there to give me a hug when she sees me and a kiss goodbye when I go to work. She is my shopping buddy and I cant wait to do it more and more as she gets older. I love the relationship my mom and I have and I hope to have the same with her. Emery's favorite food is fired chicken, her favorite toy or game are Legos and her favorite subject is computers.
