The Great Outdoors

Last Saturday, we took Emily on her first actual fishing expedition. She had a great time and came home tired and filthy, as all good fishermen probably should.

You can see that she particularly enjoyed standing in puddles.

Although Em didn't catch any fish herself, her Daddoo did, so she got to check them out. She was intruiged.

Y'all, check out these curls.

On Sunday, Robert got confirmed and I got received into the Episcopal church. We've been attending classes for this since January and it was a special day for our family. Not that Emily saw fit to commemorate the day by smiling in any of the pictures.

Then Sunday afternoon we went to the pond in our neighborhood and fed the ducks. (Actually, the ducks weren't terribly interested in our bread -- they must've been full.)

"Emily, where are the ducks?"

Robert caught me unaware and shot this charming pregnant picture,

then he convinced me to smile for one.

Emily particularly liked looking at the turtles with her Daddoo.

Since I'm having the baby on Wednesday, you can probably count on this being the last blog post until at least after the baby's born. I'll try to get some vital stats and pictures of her up as soon as possible, but it may be next weekend before I'm able to accomplish that. In the meantime, keep us all in your thoughts and prayers!
