Beach Baby....

Our first day at the beach! Emma loved playing in the sand. I loved watching. She also loved eating the sand. That I wasn't too thrilled with.

She is the BEST!

Life with Emma

Look at that amazing girl! Isn't she cute? I love this picture. Emma is starting to look so much older and grown up. She is so sweet. I look at this picture all day long while I am at work. Yep. I had to go back to work on Monday. It was about the worst day of my life that I can remember. There I was sobbing as I drove away from the daycare. Emma was fine. I was so sad though. Not only do I really think that it is good for babies to be with their mommies when they are this age - but I am sad because I am missing out on all the adorable things she does all day long...the cute faces, the fun sounds, the way she plays and smiles and laughs. I can't stand that I only get to enjoy that for a few hours every day! Doesn't anyone have a job for me where I can stay home....(and still make enough money to pay my bills and save for Emma's college fund?)...or maybe some lottery winner would like to give me a share?....ha, ha.... a girl can dream.

I've not fallen off the planet!!

I've just entered the realm of motherhood and can't figure out where all of those hours in a day go! Sorry that I've not updated this site for two months...I still want to give a recount of my travels to China and the amazing journey of meeting my little Emma. What a joyous time that was for me. When I get a little extra time, I will try to give details of the trip on Emma's website :(www.babysites.com/sites/broberg). But, just for fun here is one picture of Emma and I just a few days after getting together. We visited a local site in Nanchang where they let us pose in Chinese royalty garb. Life is so great and so fun with Emma. I am so lucky!
