Adrienne & her lovely baby bump
It’s official – as far as the medical people can tell, Adrienne and Mac’s little Nutter butter is apparently blue-flavored. It looks like Team Gus (as opposed to Team Fiona) is the victor. Emmett’s very first cousin is going to make a great little playmate at family events. I’m pretty sure if Em were old enough to understand that there was going to be another little boy his age in the family, he’d be thrilled.
Congrats, Mac and A! We can’t wait to meet him!

Last Friday, James and I gave Em his very first real bath. We’re talking full-on baby (sans head, of course) water submersion. None of that sponge bath nonsense. Boy did he love it! He was quite a content baby if I’ve ever seen one. The nurses at the hospital told James and I that babies only need about one to two baths per week, but there’s no harm in bathing them more frequently if they’re a fan of it. Considering Emmett is a fan, I think there are many more baths in his future.
Water Baby
Due to the risk of embarrassing future Emmett, I debated about whether to post bathtime pictures. Sorry Em, but it was really too cute to pass up, so I’ve included an edited version (I compromised). After all, what are parents for? (Future Emmett will just be happy I didn’t post the video ….)

Physically, so far it seems like Emmett is totally his dad’s son – he’s stinky (hehe just kidding – sort of), he talks/gurgles in his sleep, his feet are ginormous and he’s long and lanky. Well, I guess I was always kind of long and lanky, too.
Still, it wasn’t until James’ mom (Grandma Lucy) brought over some of James’ baby pictures that we realized how striking a resemblance Em bears to his father …
Baby James
Apparently James was very scrunchy all the time. Here’s an equally scrunchy picture of Emmett for comparison …
Baby Emmett
Seriously – when I first glanced at the photos, I thought Lucy had already developed some of Emmett’s pictures. Now we know where that chin dimple came from.
Emmett may look more like James than he does me, but it’s still too soon to tell whose personality he’ll take after. Will he be a soccer star or a lacrosse dude? A writer or a history buff? Maybe he’ll just get the best of both worlds
