awol

Hello everyone. Yes, i'm alive (gasp!). Things have been a little ca-razy around here the past couple months, but I've decided it's time to return to blogging. It's my means of family history and recording memories of Emmett so I started feeling so guilty I've been neglecting it!
You guys have missed him starting to talk, going to nursery all by himself (and loving it!), and basically becoming a full-on little boy. I was peeking at him through the peephole in nursery on Sunday in between classes to see how he was doing, and he was walking around the center of the circle during singing time, holding his shirt up and showing everyone his bellybutton. So yeeeah, he was having a good time. By the way hes obsessed with belly buttons. And if you're near him watch out, cause yours is fair game. He will not hesitate to walk up, grab your shirt, lift it up, and poke your belly button ( its especially likely when you're sitting down in an unflattering position and your tummy is bulging over...) I guess thats what I get for buying "The Bellybutton Book" as his first book!
So in other news....I just bought a new camera!!! And I'm so excited about it! It's a Nikon D5000, my first SLR :) It's a little overwhelming trying to learn so much new information at once, but I've got a pretty good general grasp on things and I'm excited to become more skilled. No more missing all the shots I want to take because my camera's too slow! WooHoo!!! So I'm sure you'll be getting picture overload sooner rather than later...
Dumbo in all his glory. He learned to say "Tick Teet!"
I will leave you with our pictures from Halloween because posts with no pictures are boring, and I never blogged about it. Hope you're doing well (and hope someone still checks this since I've been so flaky these days!)

For those of you who arent familiar with LA Ink, I was Kat Von D. Google her.


LOVE the padded belly. My favorite part
