"A portrait of my Emmett, once a week, every week, in 2014."

 We've been in Georgia with my family all week, so I'm a little late with this post. Little Emmett is having a blast, soaking up all of the attention and affection his aunts and uncles are pouring on him. It's been such a nice break from our normal life, for both of us. But he hasn't been sleeping well. He's too excited, and the time difference is killer, so the first few days were sort of sleepless and messy.

I've been relying on his bath each night as a chance to calm things down, Skype with his daddy, spend a little time, just he and I, getting ready for bed. And that has helped. The last two nights after his bath, he's clean and snuggly and sleepy, and he's slept like a champ. So this week, I want to remember him in his bath, silly and soft with his hair all in messy waves. The cutest boy there ever was.
