The Road Warrior

Yes, we will skip the pretense that you all actually want to see pictures of Allison and Jeff and hear how we are doing. Then again, with a cute little thing like Emerson, we understand.

It turns out Florida has been a perfect first vacation for everyone: quiet, relaxing, and not much to do but sit around and enjoy each others' company, a good book, or blogging (hypothetically). Emerson was a fantastic traveler on Saturday, taking to the air with ease, sleeping most of the trip in our arms.



Jeff's Four Part Guide To Answering Everyone Who Stops To Ask About Emerson:

1. "She's seven weeks old."
2. "She's a girl." (note: pink clothing wasn't a tip off to some folks)
3. "Her name is Emerson"
4. "Yes, we agree, she's cute."


You can handle 99% of all inquiries using the above guide. Feel free to use your with your own infant, just make sure to change the name/age/gender as applicable.



Emerson has achieved all of the following on this trip:

1. Meeting her great Aunt Marcia and Uncle Mike
2. Impersonating a buoy in the pool
3. Chilling in her new pink Bumbo seat
4. Eat, sleep, poop, repeat

It's a rough life, but someone's gotta do it.

Blessings to our friends and family, we look forward doing more travels and adventures with you all in the future.

Wow! Emerson's extra advanced to be chilling in her Bumbo so early. Way to go girl!

PS - Noah got a kids flier from the grocery store today. He was looking at it while I was loading the groceries into the truck and told me that the flier was for baby Emerson. We do have a doll named Emerson, so I don't know who he meant, but either way this grocery store flier makes him think of Emerson.

Can't wait until you fly to Denver so I can coo over Emerson live and in person!
