Hey! Hi! What?

Emma at the aquarium

Yesterday was Emma's first visit to the Georgia Aquarium (hopefully not her last). At certain times she was absolutely transfixed by the fish. Yet when we got to the big "Ocean Tank" (always a highlight for her mother), she was sound asleep. Ah well.

Eyelashes

Look at this child's eyelashes. She will never need mascara. Lucky girl.

Our CAT babies

Needless to say, in our family, we have a few Caterpillar baby items (bibs, shirts, even books). Among these is a white t-shirt with the CAT logo. We have a photo of Madeleine when she was around 6-7 months old, wearing this shirt (see the last photo in this blog entry). I decided it would be fun to take some photos of Emma wearing the same shirt. Here are a couple of the outtakes of Emma's photo session, along with one of Madeleine's photos from early 2007:

More vacation pics!

Hi, everyone--Just a few more picks....let's see, we have Emma on the beach:

Thanks for checking out our vacation photos!

More Disney World

Here are a few more photos from Disney World (apparently, I can only add 5 at a time---silly Blogspot!) The top two were taken at the "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids" play area at Hollywood Studios. There's a family photo (the sweaty Campbells), a photo of Emma, and one of Madeleine looking at fish at Epcot. I will try to post a few more, if Blogspot will let me!

Random Disney photos

Hi, everyone,

Well, it's been nearly a month since we went to Disney World and the Space Coast for vacation. Frank and I have so many photos to sort through and the thought of creating a detailed, chronological photo account is completely daunting to me. So I decided to just randomly select a few photos and post them. I will try to get around to posting more photos from our trip at a later date. Keep your eyes on Madeleine's website, too (http://madeleinesmiles.blogspot.com), as I will try to create a post featuring vacation photos of her.

But for now, here are a few pics:

This photo was the last photo I took at Disney World. It was actually taken at our hotel, after a very hot morning walking around Magic Kingdom. I am sure that this photo will be blackmail material for Emma in about 15-20 years:

Another photo of two tired girls. I should note that, while I am taking these photos, Frank's outside, trying to jump-start the dead car battery.

Our dinner at Crystal Palace with the characters from Winnie the Pooh. Everyone's favorite, Eeyore!:
Classic photo: Emma checking out Pooh's nose. She has a little stuffed Pooh toy that she adores, so she was pretty amazed to see a BIG, live version of her toy!:

The girls and Pooh. Madeleine's introducing Emma to Pooh:

We had a very, very late lunch at Cinderella's Castle. Here's Madeleine decorating her dessert cupcake:
