And now for Emmett's first birthday. Here are 2 small cakes from Scratch Bakery in South Portland. Mmmm.

Our friends the Ostwalds threw a party for Emmett. Here is the cupcake tower. Claire and Maddie made and decorated the cupcakes.

Here's Ann and Emmett with Nicola, Emily, Alex, and Claire.

Bubbles

Emmett got a bottle of bubbles at daycare for Valentine's Day. We played with them on Friday at lunch. It is really funny when the cats and dog start chasing the bubbles. Ah, the simple things in life.

To add to Eugene's post about how Emmett is changing drastically, here is some video from my new Flip! camera. (Thank you Eugene.)

10 MONTH SHIFT

There seems to have been a big developmental shift recently. Emmett has become very curious and willful.

We went to the doctor last monday. One shot in each chubby thigh.
