Anniversaries

Hey, look! There's four of us. Our fourth anniversary came on April 26, 2012, a hectic weekday morning on which we could barely pause to get everyone in the frame together. At least I smiled - though this time it's Morgan who looks too serious!

Emma and I celebrated our third anniversary on April 26, 2011. Morgan was about to turn 2 years old, and would absolutely not accept anybody else holding the number. And just like our first anniversary, Emma is carrying an addition to the family, due in August. Next time, I'll remember to smile.

Emma and I celebrated our second anniversary on April 26, 2010. We took the picture in her parents' living room in London, as Emma spent the week house- and pet-sitting while they were out of town. The most significant change in this year's photo was the migration of Morgan from Emma's belly to the outside world. She's been making her mark ever since! Everyone is happy, healthy and enjoying the wild ride that parenthood has proven itself to be.

Emma and I celebrated our first anniversary on April 26, 2009. She was expecting our first child and had been put on bed rest for the final week of her pregnancy, while I was sick with a nasty pink eye infection, which resulted in us having a romantic Thai delivery dinner at home. Neither of us looked our best.
