We had a blast at the zoo a few weeks ago. Matt was able to take a day off work and spend it with the fam, for mine and Pete's b-days. It was such a great day! 
I love that this picture turned out like this! With the sun shining in your face it was hard to tell if Pete was even looking at me, and when I got home I noticed that Pete wasn't the only one looking right at me:) I love the Zoo!:) I can't believe that my baby is 4 months old!! They grow so fast. I actually hate that:) She is such a happy baby. I took her to the Dr. and she weighs in at 14lbs 10oz, she is so chunky compared to what Pete was at this age. The nurse told me that she has perfect thighs for getting shots, is that a compliment?? I guess that this is the only time in her life that chubby thighs actually look cute!!
Check out that grin!!6 years ago today Matt and I were married. Of course the weather was a little better:)Matt is my knight in shining armor and I love him so very very much!!

Happy anniversary babe! Here is to 6 years and the best is yet to come:)
Planting a tree. Yeah we pretty much work him to death, but what a great hole he dug!
All I can say is "THANK YOU MATT"
On June 5,2006 at 11:25pm came a healthy 7lb 5oz, 21 inch long little boy. Born on my grandfathers b-day- Leonard Arlo Brunscard Peterson aka Pete. (Seeing as how the only name of grandpa we liked was Peterson), we had Peterson Matthew Emery aka Pete.
Pete has truly blessed our lives. What a great big brother and son. Happy Birthday Pete!! We love you so much!!
Take a look at this great outfit Pete was sporting around in! Nothing like under-roos and slippers!!
Pete loves wearing Matt's old catchers mask! Matt can only hope that is a "sign" of the years to come:)
I love that Pete shows exactly how he is feeling with those BIG BLUES of his (his eyes for everyone that doesn't know what I am talking about)These are pictures of me trying to get them on demand.
HAPPY- It is very easy to get a happy picture with Pete, because he is always smiling.
SILLY- What a little crack up!
MAD- I know, pretty scarey.
So it was such a nice day today, and the first time that Pete has got to ride the scooter that Gram and Grandpa gave him for Christmas. I personally love the helmet suprisingly he loves to wear it. I think that he would wear it all day if he could:)
Pete has turned out to be the best little helper any mom could ask for! I was a little worried that he wouldn't like Piper, because of jealousy, but he absolutely LOVES her(sometimes a little too much). He helps me bath her, fold her laundry etc.. I love my little boy so much!!
Yes, Piper is in Pete's old pj's, she may look like a little boy in these pictures, but we all know she is the cutest girl ever!! I just love the way she smiles and stares at her brother!!
For some odd reason Pete likes to put Pipers carseat in front of the TV, get a blanket and sit back and relax. Crazy kid.
He keeps me laughing all day everyday!!
You know, the more that I think about it, it will be nice to have another girl around here:)
Jenn (my awesome sis in law) did a great photoshoot of our little Piper, these pictures turned out so cute. I had to post them....yeah, to pretty much show her off:) Pete was such a great baby- never spit up slept 4-5 hrs a night at 2 weeks old, I wasn't expecting that I would get so lucky to have 2 kids like that, but I have. Piper is following right in his footsteps! Yeah for me!! She is such a great baby, not quite as good as Pete was but pretty darn close.
