 Emilys New Sister

Hi, my name is Emily.
That's my family over there. I have a little brother named Josh and this is my dog... his name is Flanders.

Emily's Scrapbook

A few days after my surprise birthday party, Mommy and Daddy told me our family would have another surprise, a new baby. With my parent's help, I made a colorful scrapbook describing what happened while we waited for the baby to arrive. Click the picture to see my scrapbook.
