Chocolate Cheese

\
First of all, I don't know what is up with my pictures, but I cannot get them to move below my post.

We had a great week and weekend. I am now on a new kick of cooking for the family. Jason has been very pleased, and it's been nice to sit down every night as a family.

Saturday Jason, Emme, and I went to Hattiesburg so I could visit my friend Jill and her new little boy, Tripp. Jill and I taught across the hall from one another for two years. She went into labor at 30 weeks and gave birth to her precious little boy Tripp. He weighed exactly 3 pounds at birth, a little over a week ago. When I saw him yesterday, he was already at 3.5 pounds. Tripp has proved to be a fighter and has made his parents proud! Please pray that Tripp will continue to grow bigger and stronger every day. I brought my camera to the hospital, but it wasn't behaving. I will try to attach a new picture of him.

After the hospital, Jason and I took Emme to Chuck E Cheese. She, of course, loved it, especially the Barney ride. She walked up and said, "Hey Barney!!" like she was expecting to see him there. I just had to include a picture of Emme looking at Chuck E Chesse with an "you come here often?" expression. The pic of Emme crying was proof of how sad she was when we had to leave. She kept calling it Chocolate Cheese, so as we were walking out the door, she was begging to go back to her Chocolate Cheese!

We had some friends over to watch football Saturday night. A great Saturday for all the DAWG fans! Speaking of fans, Emme is quite a fan of her friend, Brady Michael. She inundated him with LOTS of kisses and hugs last night. I'm going to have to watch that!

After church today I asked Emme what she wanted for lunch. After a few seconds of real consideration, she replied, "Fried chicken!" Bless her heart... she really does take after me!!
