One-on-One with Emmit

Emmit got lots of one-on-one time last week. Ellie was gone to Grandma & Grandpa Pomeroy's for a fun-filled week, so Emmit got a taste of life as an only child =) I traveled to Phoenix for work on Sunday, so Emmit got lots of lovin' from Daddy to start out the week. On Wednesday then, I came back and Colin headed to the UP with Ellie, so it was Emmit and Mama time at home. Just having Emmit at home for a change was so fun (and easy!) - he's such a good boy! =)

Before I left...Mama, take me with you!



Lawn mowing fun with Daddy - Emmit really likes the lawn mower now!

Another one from the week...I believe his hair is styled with yogurt (along with the front of his shirt!)

Peek-a-boo!



This coming week is going to be one of transition for Emmit. After 8 months, we're going to give our daycare center a go again. We have loved Emmit's nanny-care these last several months - Emmit grew very attached to Amanda, but we also knew that it was only temporary. We are very thankful that it worked so well for everyone, especially for Emmit! So, tomorrow will be his first day at daycare again. I think he's ready - it'll be good for him to be around other kids - especially boys! His life has pretty much been ruled by 2 year old girls thus far (Ellie and 2 more girls at the nanny's house)! Going to one nap a day is probably going to be a hard transition, so we'll have some bad night's sleep ahead, but hopefully we can make the adjustment easily. Selfishly, I'm kind of excited for my morning to be a little less hectic...just one drop-off now =)
