New family member and Sarah's outing.

IT'S AGIRL!

This is the newest member of our little family. We named her Emily Elizabeth. She is named after Thomas the train and friends not the girl from Clifford. Emily is the girl train and there is a truck I think she is named Elizabeth. Plus Sarah said she needed that middle name so she would match the rest of the girls in the family. When we first picked her out they told us she was a girl. So we chose the name James. Albert still calls her James once in a while. Anyway I thought for sure Thomas would try to eat her but that's not what happened. He just wants to play with her but she doesn't want anything to do him. I think Thomas is actually a bit scared of her. He doesn't get to close.

Sarah could not be more happy. She has been asking for a cat for years. She has been asking for a cat since we had to get rid of the one we did have when we were in Deleware. She has been taking very good care of Emily. I showed her how to clean the litter box. I didn't tell her she had to clean or anything I just showed her how. Well I only cleaned it once so far when I showed Sarah how. She goes a couple times a day and cleans it out. I know that probably won't last but for now I haven't had to ask her to do anything for Emily I haven't had to do anything for Emily. Sarah does it all. She is one happy little girl. She keeps telling me "I just love Emily and I think she loves me too because she is always purring and giving me kisses."

Sarah went to a birthday party outting thing this past Monday. They are out of school this week for intersession. So they went to the board walk for a girls day out. First we went to build a bear workshop. They each made a bear. Sarah really wanted to get an outfit but they were only getting the bear. I didn't want to make the other kids feel bad by getting Sarah out fit and not the rest of them. So we skipped the outfit.
Then they went to have their nails painted. They each to pick their own color. That's Emma the birthday girl and Sarah sitting at the nail dryer.
Then we all went out to eat at Joe's crab shack. This is all the girls waiting for their food to come. Sarah had a really good time. She doesn't normally get to go out do things with kids out side of school. Mommy had a good time too I went somewhere with just Sarah. It was nice to go and do something with her and not have Albert. I think Sarah enjoyed being with her friends but also the Mommy time too.
