May flowers

Today, Charlotte had a playdate with her future BFF Emmalyn. Here are the two girls together. Emmie is 5 months older than Charlotte. At this age, the difference is very obvious. Charlotte looks so tiny next two this beautiful 6-month-old. It was really nice for me to have a chance to visit with Emmie's mom, my great friend, Cari.

I love this picture because Charlotte is smiling like she could not be happier to be hanging out with her friend!

After chilling at Cari and Emmie's place for a while, we made our way to the Dallas Arboretum. I had never been before, so it was a first for both Charlotte and me. Our wonderful friend Krisitina joined us for the outing. The flowers and views were gorgeous. It did get a little warm, but we enjoyed our visit. Charlotte slept the whole time until the end. Unfortunately, I should have fed her before we left because she cried the entire 40 minute car ride home. I spent the majority of the trip with my right hand reaching back to hold a paci in her mouth, because otherwise she was screaming a very heart-wrenching scream.
