November?!


I guess it has been awhile since I've written!  October seemed to fly by.  Emma and I had the chance to spend a week with my mom in Rochester while my step dad was in Colorado.  Amos drove us up and spent the weekend and then headed back home to work.  I have the most amazing husband.  He has taken on so much so that Emma can have me at home with her.  I have the most amazing job (and yes I completely classify a stay at home mom as a full time, overtime required daily/nightly, no holidays, vacation time limited to a date night here or there kind of job).  But I wouldn't change it for anything.  So here is a little side note shout out to my hubby...thanks babe ;)  And now back to Rochester, we had so much fun just visiting and relaxing.  It was like a girls only week!  Emma and I got to see a lot of friends and spend time with family (although we didn't get to see everyone we wanted to...luckily we are headed back for Thanksgiving!).  We got to see my dad, step mom and little brother (even though he was been taller then me for years) for a short time but had so much fun.  They took us to the new Anchor Bar in the city (home of the original buffalo wing idea).  Amos was in heaven.  There is hands down one thing that he absolutely misses about Rochester, CHICKEN WINGS.  He has not found a place down here that comes close to anything that we had in Rochester.

We are headed back to Rochester next weekend for a wedding which is sure to be a great time.  I am beginning to get anxious though.  I have not left Emma over night yet and this will be the first time.  My mom is going to watch her which is something she has been waiting for!  I was pregnant when I told my mom that our friends were getting married in Rochester and the 1st thing she said was "Do I get to watch the baby for a whole day and night?!"  Needless to say, she is thrilled and I am nervous (although I know she is going to be in AMAZING hands).  I am definitely excited to spend some "grown up time" with Amos and with all of our friends.

Things at home are well to sum it up...COUGH COUGH SNIFFLE SNIFFLE!!!  Yes we are sick :(  Amos caught it first and I thought (stupidly of course) that Emma and I were in the clear because we were both feeling great!  But Sunday afternoon it hit Emma and later that night me.  So, Amos is still feeling terrible, poor Emma doesn't feel good (but really is doing great dealing with it) and I am slowly feeling worse.  Hopefully we will be back on our feet again soon!

Here are a few pictures of our beautiful baby girl :)

Oh, I hope we didn't get you guys sick!!! I'm sorry you're not feeling well. We're still sick too.
You will do fine leaving Emma overnight just for one night. Enjoy it! Not everyone gets to do that! :D
Emma is so gorgeous, and Mary had a wonderful time playing with her Friday.
Yes, it's incredible to have a husband who works very hard so that you can stay home!
