Happy Valentine's Day....just a few days late

Emma enjoyed her First Valentine's Day! Don't you love her designer jeans?
She is now sitting in her Bumbo and really seems to enjoy it except when she gets stuck to one side.
She is already a little hormonal. She is totally ignoring me here already or maybe she just fell asleep. Aww....the joys to come with raising a daughter.

First Birthday Party

Our niece had her 5th birthday party the other day! It is hard to believe she is already 5. She was just born the other day. She is such a great big cousin to Emma. Emma just smiles everytime she sees her. We got Emma all dressed up for the big event. Her great-grandmother said her barrette looked like a bird had pooped on her hair. It is actually a little cupcake. I was able to pull together enough hair to get it to stay.

The fam at the party. There were kids everywhere. I was worn out just watching them play.
Happy Birthday Kelley! We love you! Isn't she the cutest?

Daddy Time!

Just about everynight, Emma gets a bottle from Michael. Here she is patiently waiting to burp. Yes, she was really tapping her fingers on the arm of the sofa while watching basketball.
As most everyone is aware, Emma is a spitting image of her Daddy. I made them pose together to take a picture so everyone could see the resemblance.

Passed out!

Emma likes to play in her jungle gym. There is a setting where she has to hit the toys to trigger the gym to play music. She has figured it out. Well the other day she was in it and we realized we had not heard the music in awhile. Michael checked in on her and this is how he found her - passed out!

We made it to Church - FINALLY!


We made it to church the other week. Emma stayed in the nursery and did great. She never left her car seat so no one saw how cute she looked in her little dress and tights.

I'm Smiling!!!

Emma has really started smiling and chuckling!!! I was so excited to actually catch a picture of her smiling. Please disregard the burp cloth she is holding.


3 months old


So I am pretty slack about this whole blogging thing. I am still trying to figure it out. Emma is growing up so fast! Each day brings something new. She is smiling, cooing, and beginning to discover her feet and hands. She has rolled over a few times. She loves her swing - thanks Joanna, Catie, and Laura. It has been a real life saver. Michael and I can not believe she is 3 months old. It feels like just yesterday she was born.
