2nd Birthday Fun!

Here are some of our pictures from Emmett and Juddy's 2nd birthday party! Unfortunately we are still figuring out how to work the camera so lots of the pics from the party didn't quite turn out. Still - so many cute kids all together! We loved it.

Nana & Pop Pop Weekend Visit

Here are the first of many pictures from last weekend, when Nana and Pop Pop came for a visit. We had so much fun with them - the South of the James Farmer's market, a trip to the pool, a lovely party at our dear friends the Gilberts' house, and finally Emmett and Juddy's joint 2nd birthday party at Romp n Roll in Richmond. There are plenty more to come, I'm just not as fast as Brooke is with sharing photos and media!

Welcome, Anthony Patrick!

Our new nephew, Anthony Patrick, arrived earlier this week to proud parents Emily and Vinnie. He was born on June 16 in the evening, and was delivered at 28 weeks' gestation. He opened his eyes within 10 minutes of being delivered and is wowing everyone in the NICU up at Albany Med. Mom and baby are doing very well and we pray that they stay on a strong upswing.

Good morning!

Pool or River?

Which way to the gym?

Bobby & Amanda's Wedding: iPhone Photos

On a Water Taxi ride that Emmett will not soon forget:

Tiny tuxedo time!

The men of the hour. Sure, it's the Fathers of the Bride and Groom plus Emmett, who may have a slightly less significant roll in the day, but I think the Zoolander expression from below really ties the image together. Ya know?

Keeping spirits up!

The big moment!

Emmett with his new Elmo doll, which he kisses, hugs, and, on the ride home from B-more, was shown all of the interesting sights outside of Emmett's window.

Bobby & Amanda's Wedding: Scordino Edition

We did bring our camera to the rehearsal dinner, and used it almost exclusively to take pictures of baby Joey who, it appears, has never seen a camera before, and his delighted smiles and eye contact signify him as ripe for entering a career in modeling. Some pics of the gorgeous Scordino family below!

The lovebirds!

Poor PopPop's shoulder is never going to heal itself... but Emmett sure does love hanging upside down in his arms.
