Our Weekend



Emmeline has had a pretty packed weekend. (Don't they all seem to be?) We got our weekend off to an early start since Shawn left work at 4! Shawn and I spent Friday night moving lumber that idiot lumber delivery men had left ON OUR STREET, not in our backyard, as requested. By the way, when I say "Shawn and I," I mean Shawn, Andrew and our neighbor Mike. I tried to help, but honestly, they were very heavy pieces of wood. Saturday morning, Shawn, Andrew and Dave began building our deck!!!! YEA!!! She also met Dave's dog, Pibber. Turns out, Emmy LOVES doggy kisses. She was laughing and laughing when Pibber kissed her.

After Em's morning nap, we headed over to Erin and Gracie's house. Then we went swimming with them. Man, funny how much more Emmeline enjoyed swimming when Daddy wasn't dunking her in the pool. She had a great time, thanks in no small part to Grace's benevolent sharing of a very chewy dolphin. We came back, took another nap, and then headed to the Blomases for a patio warming party. She dined on broccoli, and then went to bed.
This morning, we went to church, where she enjoyed the nursery. It's amazing how much more Shawn and I are able to enjoy church now that we're not shushing her, bouncing her, and walking her throughout the service. And, she gets to move and talk as much as she wants, which is how it should be.
In the most important news, our good friends Craig and Jessica welcomed their first baby boy on this weekend! Weighing in at 7 lbs 13 oz, Jeffrey Andrew Schneibolk was born Friday night. Shawn and I are going up to Maryland this afternoon to meet him and give our love to the newly expanded Schneibolk family. Emmeline will be hanging out with some great girls from our church.
