Pics to Mix (Images from the Christmas 2009)

We had a great time in Leesburg, VA and Logan Mills, PA over Christmas. Much fun was had visiting with Cousin Holden and Ian, Aunt Helena, and Oma. Plus seeing Nettie and Uncle Glenn and Aunt Claudia along with Great Uncle Leo and Great Aunt Trautel was a highlight. Now its back to the grind as they say--which is probably a good thing for Emmet.

We hope everyone else had a wonderful time over the holidays!

Emmet goes for a Stroll

we promise pictures/video of Mr. E's birthday will be forthcoming. For now, you can see how Emmet sort of walks behind his cart.

Emmet Pulls up the "Bootstraps"

Emmet is busy pulling up these days. We think it won't be long until he starts to walk. No rush Emmet! Mama and Dada are happy with you crawling for now.

Emmet Goes to Cookie Lake

We took a lovely trip to Cookie Lake (aka Keuka Lake) in July thanks to the generosity of Peter and Moira. We brought Emmet's Godmothers along to share in the summer fun that lakeside residing brings. They along with Stefan had a good time wind surfing. Emmet loved the water and didn't even mind being in his play pen on the dock. He got to go swimming in his new boat and even got a trip in the motor boat once we were able to fit him in an infant life jacket--something Emmet did not particularly enjoy. Then Emmet got a good bath in the Kitchen Sink!

Good Day...

Emmet Closes the door (on the camera)

I know this is a vertical video but it was too cute not to
post. Emmet and Dada have been taking portraits after
baths and this was a short video excursion.
