this week was a blur of opera rehearsals/performances, photo editing, irish dancing performances, and general day-to-day baby-watching. fortunately grandma jojo was here to help with the girls and make life sweeter.

i love when she swoops in and saves the day.

it’s always so hard to see her go, but we’ll be trekking to sunny southern indiana sometime soon, so this was really just part I of our summer visit… (thanks for everything. see you soon, mama! xoxo)

[for the record, emma does not like this picture. "why am i blurry? i don't like being blurry!"
she doesn't as much mind the one above where she's in focus and the baby is "blurry"...]
