Zoo


Today we made use of our Zoo membership and took a little trip. To the contrary of Jill's prediction that nobody would be there, it was packed. It was also very windy, which kept a lot of the animals in hiding. The otters were snuggling up with each other to keep warm and the orangutan baby was having a good time while his parents rested. I wish that I could be so care free about letting Emma roam around and play...

Christmas Fun




Merry Christmas everyone! I hope that you all had a wonderful day. Jill, Emma, and I spent last night here at home with all of Jill's family. Emma loved playing with all of her cousins.

Today we spent the day at my parent's house. They gave Emma a big set of wooden blocks for Christmas, which kept us all occupied for a while. We would stack them up and Emma would crash through them. It was quite a challenge getting them built up before Emma would spot them and pounce. I built the tower above when she was being distracted. As you can see, once she spotted it, the results were the same...

Pony Tail

We've been trying to get Emma's hair in a pony tail for a few weeks unsuccessfully. Her hair is so pin straight and thin that it's hard to gather into a bunch.

Rainy Day With Dad



Jill was back in California this past weekend for a wedding. Emma and I spent the weekend together and had a lot of fun. It rained a lot on Saturday morning and Emma enjoyed watching the rain from the couch in our front room. I had to put the pics up because I just love her eyes and how they caught the light, especially in the last one.
