well, hello there

Hi all. I have a minute...literally a minute and I wanted to add some pictures. Things have been great here of late. Emerson is falling in love with Pete, and it's so cool to watch. She loves to play with him and hold him, and yesterday, he smiled at her and I watched her melt into a puddle of goo. Sigh.

Here are a few shots of them playing together. There's also one of my parents and I with the grandkids.

I apologize for my lack of content here. As I type, I've got one finger on the binky of a screaming infant and the other hand holding my wild almost-3-year-old as she bounces on the couch. Awesome.
