Fall Day

I had a stroke of creativity today and wanted to show you all how beautifully fall is presenting itself on the East Coast!

Emma's birthday/At the park/Feeding the ducks

Ok, I realize I have not posted in a while. It's taken a little while to move up and get situated. Andy goes back to work on Friday :(. I'm finally getting in the place where I can take pictures again and feel satisfied. Here's some of the goings on of late:

Emma's cake! Took wayy longer than I realized and didn't turn out as I expected... Oh well, at least she won't remember it and it's practice for next year! I wanted to put it up just to remember it. Around the cake, it says "Happy Bday Emma."

Birthday kiss!

Unwrapping presents

First pair of Levi's!

Pretty birthday girl in her tutu. Daddy got her a chair to sit on! That Tigger is from Grammy (my mom). We had been looking for a Tigger for*e*ver... Emma loves the Wonderful Thing About Tiggers song!

Reading!

She would not look at the camera... but these are still cute...

Yay! Feeding duckies!

There was only one duck, "Mrs. Duck," today.

She got really close! Emma kept dropping her snacks all over the place.

I hope you enjoyed those. The apartments where we leave now are really nice. As you can see, they have this man-made lake where ducks and geese like to come. Emma loves going to see them, so we go as much as we can. There's also a play place without swings (boo!) but we can still use the slides with my help. We're on the first floor, which is so much better than the second floor, especially with strollers. My mom was able to come up and visit for Emma's first birthday. We went to the Virginia Zoo which was cool. Tomorrow we're going to go to Williamsburg, it's only about an hour away. Other than that, what have you, o faithful readers, been up to? Sorry I haven't posted in so long!
