Wendy, Steve, and Emma’s Blog

Our kitchen cabinets are almost all installed! I tried putting Emma in one of the drawers today of a freshly installed cabinet…and it turned out to be a great picture (yup, I’m a little biased, but, well, you know…look at how freakin’ cute she is!). As soon as I turn my back to a cabinet after installing it Wendy is right behind me loading it up with stuff.

The last shot is one of her playing in her favorite toy, a gift of my aunt and cousin, Joan and Susan.  Thanks for that, ladies–Emma really, really loves it.

Life is good.

Our friend Chris visited a couple of weeks ago and brought her baby, Kate, over to meet us.  Kate and Chris spent the day with Emma and Wendy and I think they had a lot of fun. Kate was born about a month earlier than Emma and this was our first time meeting her.

A good time was had by all.

Here is a shot from our downstairs hallway.  Emma has a hat on that our good friend Robyn made for her.  It’s such a beautiful collection of colors and it is so soft.  As I work in my office I often get to see Wendy carrying Emma up the driveway from going out to get the mail and it always brings a big smile to my face.  The usual scenario is that I run into the hallway and say something like, “Good Lord is that hat cute on her.  Robyn knitted a winner!”

Robyn was also so, so helpful in the beginning with Emma.  From breastfeeding to being someone to lean on in the early times of stress, she’s a star in our eyes.

Whether emailing pictures , uploading pictures to a web site, or dealing with pictures in some other digital way, I’ve written this tutorial to help you out.
