Happy New Year, I mean March!

I feel like I have less time to do thing like blog as Emmett gets older. I didn't expect that, but with the loss of naps, I don't get much that needs undivided attention done.

Emmett turned 3 the last day of February. He will tell you that he had two parties; one with friends and one with Nana and Pops.

I just got an invitation to my 20th high school reunion. The reminders of my aging keep rolling in.

Merry Christmas everyone! Some moments from the past few weeks...

Emmett is seriously fascinated by any musical instrument. A very kind young woman played her cello for him at my office holiday party, and so his guitar became a cello the following day.


Here he is opening a Christmas present...
It is "Do Rabbits Celebrate Christmas?," a book of poems.
Christmas breakfast with his new friend Penguin. We had raspberry pancakes and sausage, plus pear.

New Home

So since the last post we sold our house in South Portland and moved to Cape Elizabeth. Here are some out of order images.

Emmett on a bath safari.

Dinner in the new dining room. We still have boxes 3 month later because I'm slowly painting the rooms.
Emmett's favorite part of Halloween was handing out candy. To daddy.
The front of the new house.
Pops helping us pack the old house.
Thanksgiving - puzzle time.
Thanksgiving - Sarah and Ben playing. Nana photographing Emmett and Lily hugging.
Lily and Emmett playing their violins.
A walk in the neighborhood to the local farm.

So we're selling our little house and

Emmett is obsessed with this guitar,

even during Carrie's visit.

Spring Adventures

Here is a glimpse of what we've been up to:meeting friends' chickens, sitting on Eugene's bike, learning to take pictures.

He's Two!

Yes, Emmett is getting big! He does all sorts of lovely and not so lovely things. He does not like sharing Catey's lap with the cats and he does love running and playing with Eugene.

Florida trip

We had a great trip to Florida for Christmas.
