Emily's working on crawling

She is getting very close; each day I think she is going to start crawling. She is just simply the most adorable, balanced and easy going child I have ever been around. Emily is our beautiful little sweetheart!

Girls with Grandpa Root

Aunt Sarah and Scott

We just finished a visit with Aunt Sarah and Scott this weekend. It was so good to see Sarah and know that she is back home. Sarah and Scott watched the girls on Saturday so that Brian and I could go to the OSU v. Michigan State football game. It was a beautiful day for a football game and we really enjoyed it (especially winning it). Today we spent several hours hanging out at Easton, an outdoor shopping mall and soaking up the sunshine. It was actually hot out!

Family shot

Well they are few and far between but I managed to dig up two photos with all 4 of us in it. The first, our adventure shot, was taking on our caving/camping trip to Kentucky in June in the Great Saltpetre Cave. Rachel loved the cave and wearing her headlamp inside and exploring. She did NOT love the bathrooms (port-a-potty) and refused to go in one all weekend, so we did the nature thing and she peed behind trees all weekend. That's about what I can remember from the trip - oh yeah, and it was about 95 degrees out and I almost melted.



Since you can't even see poor Miss Emily in the caving shot, here is a family shot with all of us - back in May Brian's cousin Chris Hart got married and we did get a family photo in while we were all dressed up for the wedding.
