Not too often a turkey trots up to the office park...
Ann Marie just sent me this photo. Seems that a turkey got a little lost off of N Druid Hills this afternoon...

Emilie getting a mani/pedi
Em is out of school today, a little bit under the weather. That didn't stop her from getting her first mani/pedi with mommy today, however!

Christmas 2011
We had a great Christmas this year, with lots of fun time spent with family and friends. We spent a wonderful weekend in WestPoint with all of the Edwards, then came back to Atlanta for Christmas Eve w/ all the Dooley cousins in Stone Mountain. It was a very busy Christmas but also a very good one! Emilie and Pete really enjoyed Santa's visit this year(and even left out some reindeer food along w/ Santa's cookies- thanks to Aunt Jennifer!) so that was super fun! He brought Emilie a new doll house, a tricycle, and some new "golf shoes" and Pete got a new playground for the backyard. All in all they must have been good all year because they did pretty well! Last week since we had some time off work we also took a short ride out to Serenbe. (http://www.serenbe.com/ ) to see what it was all about. It was a cute little place- one of the coolest things we saw were "in-ground" trampolines! Takes away the chance of falling off and the kids loooved it. On New Year's Eve we rung in 2012 w/ one of Emilie's friends- Emery King(Jen and Lee's daughter)-coming over for a pajama party-what fun!

Our little one year old!
Our little man turned one last week and as always it is hard to believe how quickly a year can pass. From the minute we met him on November 29, 2010 I fell head over heels in love with this little guy. He was a little squeaker in the hospital- so much so that the nurses wanted to keep a close eye on his squeaky breathing. A year later, and knowing his little mischievious personality, I think ole Pete just wanted a little extra time charming the pretty nurses. And they did of course dote over the little guy for hours on end. Over the course of the past year, I’ve begun to realize that I am in trouble. This adorable little guy, with that “trouble maker” twinkle in his eye, and rascally side smile, I fear is going to have his mommy wrapped around his finger- making it easy for him to get away with anything. Pete has an adventurous curiosity that makes you wonder what he’s up to. And we are learning, once he got to crawling and walking around that if we turn our back for more than a second, he is off looking for his next exploration. Either hightailing it to the closest unlocked cabinet, dumping out a nearby drawer or basket, or his very favorite, diving into an un-lidded toilet. The boy loves to swirl his hands in that water- yuck!
Pete adores his big sister, giving us that wonderful giggle any time she does anything to make him laugh. Just seeing the look on his face as he watches her every move makes my heart want to burst. He is a very happy little guy, and I hope that his endearing charm and natural curiosity for everything stay with him for life. I couldn’t love him more and I can’t wait to watch him as he grows.
