A New Niece

This morning little Emma Taylor Cohen was born ... a few weeks early, but everyone is healthy and happy. Emma is our fifth niece and we can't wait to meet her. Mike and I are going to the hospital tomorrow to visit. Tonight we are babysitting Hannah, our other niece and Emma's big sister. At 18 months Hannah is a hand full, but so far everyone is having a good night.
We had a great weekend. Grandma Mary and Brad flew down and stayed with us Sunday night. Mike and I hosted his staff Holiday party Saturday night. We got the "Hannakah Bush" (AKA Chrstimas tree) up and decorated. We actually got it up twice, since it fell over after our first attempt. (What a mess)


Aidan can pretty much get himself whereever he wants now. He crawls around on his belly much life a wounded soilder, touching and pulling everything as he goes. He usually goes right for the one thing he shouldn't, ie. if there are toys and stuffed animals all over the floor - he will head right for the dog bed or Mike's dirty shoe, then he will try to eat it. Here are some pictures from Aidan's play date with Zachary this afternoon. What fun!
