Misses

So my son and daughter-in-law call Emma bean "Misses".  The nickname is longer but I don't remember the rest of it.  I will post about it next time.  These videos are so cute!  Don't listen to the background noise or Mathew's and my mom's voices.  Listen to Emma.  She is growing so fast and she totally recognizes voices and faces now as well as laughs and smiles. She is gooing too.  She has conversations with me about how her mom and dad fight and the dogs lick her and how much she loved Uncle Shawn.

She's really losing her hair now.  I guess my boys lost all of theirs around this age too.  Not at the same time!  Emma bean is even beautiful when she sleeps!  Look at the little chubby arms and cheeks! 

Busy Sunday

Emma's Kardashian Look

2 month old Emma Fae Ross

So my son and daughter-in-law and little Emma bean came out to Salt Lake to visit this weekend.  We had a lot of fun!  Emma and I stayed home and played while mommy and daddy went to Guitar Center.  My oldest son, Shawn, met up with them there.  He hung out with us all day.  We went to a Living Traditions Festival near the library.  It was interesting and much more diverse than I've ever seen Salt Lake in the past.  They even served beer!  I know, right?

So this morning, we all wake up and go to Einstein Bagels to get coffee and breakfast before the little Ross family headed back to Vernal.  I was taking care of Emma and when I do that, I become a little absentminded about everything else around me.  I had been using my cell phone moments earlier in Mat's car.  After we eat, I told them to go ahead and go home and I would walk to my apartment because Einstein Bagels is 2 blocks away.  Even before Mathew's car made it out of my sight, I realized I had left my phone on his seat.  But I had no phone to call him from.  So I made the 10 minute walk home, grabbed my keys and Piyo and drove to Sweet Library.

So most of you who read this know that most libraries have an alarm system that has to be armed when you leave the building and disarmed when you come into the building.  A code has to be entered in upon entrance into the building at which time it will stop beeping.  As I am driving to the library I think a little about this code.  The code is written in my phone.  Of course.  Then I remember my Library Associate telling me a few days ago that if I forget the code, its inside the door of the maintenance room where the alarm is at.  So I figure if I can't remember the code, it'll be inside the door.  I unlock the door and per usual the alarm goes off.  I go to the maintenance room and type in what I think is the code.  The alarm is still going off.  I look around.  There are various paperwork on clipboards for our maintenance worker, Carol, but no code.  I start to panic and pull papers down, trying to find the code.  The alarm gets louder and that's when I give up, get the phone and call the alarm company to tell them the situation.

The alarm company tells me that a dispatcher is already en route.  I apologize for my stupidity and hang up.  Then I call Mathew to ask him where he is.  By now he is near Heber, an hour away.  I tell him to stop somewhere and leave the phone with a gas station attendant, that I would come pick it up later.  What a mess.

After I get off the phone and go back in a room that has a view of the outside, I see a man in work man's clothes (the shirt with a name sewn on the left side).  I open up thinking it is the alarm company.  It's security at the Main Library.  I've never seen this man nor has he ever seen me.  So he asks me for my name and some id.  I produce the keys to the library, tell him my supervisor's name, which he seems satisfied with and he waits with me until the alarm company get there.  It's about 45  minutes since I started this mess.

The dispatcher from the alarm company comes, I apologized again and they leave.  I turned out lights, armed the alarm and left.  How embarrassing.

I drove an hour to Heber where Mat had left my phone at a Maverik convenience store and my phone and I were reunited. 

Little Tooter

She is always so happy!  I got to spend quality time with her over the weekend and she got her first overnighter with grandma!  It was so fun.  I actually had to keep her bottle away in order to hear her cry (I know, mean right?).  She is a tooter though.  She must have know that her nickname is Emmabean (LOL).

She must have been a beautiful baby!

Look at this little girl!  She is the most beautiful baby I've seen in at least a year.  What a doll!
