Emily has a green thumb!

Several weeks ago, Emily and I planted some tomato plants. I've never grown tomatoes (or, honestly, much of anything) before. Lo and behold, this week some tomatoes reared their cute little green heads. We can't wait to have BLTs with Emily's tomatoes later on this summer!Emily's been having finger foods more and more frequently, and she's trying out a variety of foods. It's all very messy. The other night she had macaroni and cheese, grapes, and hot dog. She can't really have macaroni and cheese for any meal other than dinner because she needs a bath immediately after mac-n-cheese, as these pictures show.

"CHEESE!"
The other night, Robert was changing Emily's diaper. I walked into the kitchen and this is what I saw.
I guess he was trying to make Emily laugh by putting her pajama pants on his head. I'm not sure what Emily thought about it, but it definitely made me laugh (and run to get the camera).

Tomorrow is Emily's first birthday party! I can't believe she'll be 1 next week. Get ready for some fun birthday pictures soon!
