Fall Rains

Emma still fit in her one-piece rainsuit this fall. She and Dad were a matched set!

Mornings

Some mornings are rougher than others...

Halloween (belated)

A bit belated, but here are our halloween pics.

Emma didn't want to wear the costume I had for her, so we pulled out the tutu Uncle Joe gave her for Christmas and matched it with a tiara and feather boa from the costume box... Ta Daaaaa... a princess.





Notice the change in tiara. We had two. At one point she was sporting both at the same time.



For only going to two houses, Emma managed to score quite a bit of loot.

It's been a while...

Life has just been flying by since August. It started with a trip to G.P. for a wedding, then a bunch of stuff (is it a bad sign if I know we were busy but I can't remember at what?) ending with us purchasing a sailboat (finally!).

So, to catch up, in no particular order...

Visit to Uncle Joe

We went to visit Uncle Joe at his new place. He took us for a fast boat ride on the lake.Emma loved the wind in her hair.









We also had an amazing dinner at his restaurant. He had the pastry chef make Emma a special dessert... three cake bunnies!

I had to be quick to get the photos. The chocolate ears came off first.




In the end, the bunnies won!

Our visit to G.P.

Emma had a great time visiting the family, going to Uncle Earl and Aunt Amy's wedding and having (one of) her birthday party.

Summer Time

The peonies didn't last long but they were beautiful while they were here.


Emma playing with her water bucket. Note the sun suit AND bathing suit. I have much to learn about 2-year old fashion. I was only going to put the sun suit on her.
