Daddy Time

"I love my dad...if only I could see him better..."









Getting ready for a walk. Emma really likes the view from her Bjorn.

The Notorious Emma Meltdowns

Emma is doing great. She is back to her birth weight and gaining weight at a good rate. She is still on "house arrest" until the first part of May to prevent her from getting sick, but that day is fast approaching. She is now acting so much like a typical newborn that she loves putting Tim and Tara through high-flying newborn meltdowns...

The start of a meltdown...












In full gear....









Ahh...sweet,sweet sleep...

Going home!

It took 3 people to put a 6 pounder in the car seat...









And we're outa there!
