guess who?

roller girl

My mom passed down these shoes to me. I think me or my brother (yes, Cory) wore these. I'll have to find that picture! I thought they were too cute when I put them on. I HAD to take a pic. No, she's not getting involved in any roller derbys that we know of.

bathtime pics!

6 weeks!

Miss Em is 6 weeks old today! Time is flying so so fast! Here's our beautiful girl

this morning giving a sweet smile.

happy Memorial Day!

We had a big day today! First off.. Emily slept 5 hours straight last night! She's doing so good! I wonder if she'll repeat it tonight?? we'll see! Today Will got of work a little early and came home. We met up with Uncle Cory, Aunt Marjie, Grandma Clo and Nana V for some lunch. We had Mexican, yum!

Next Emily and us went to Lake Ella to walk around a few times. It was so nice out! A little hot but we stopped when she wanted some lunch!

When we got home all three of us took a nice 2 hour nap all together. That was nice. We all felt very refreshed. Em didn't want to wake up, but we had to have play time before bedtime. This is what she looked like when we were trying to play with her and she wanted to sleep.
We finally got her to play and she was having so much fun! Here is a picture of Emi and "Elvis"

Happy Memorial Day everyone!

little cutie!

Today we had a Memorial Day cookout with our church fellowship group. This is the first time Emily was around everyone at once. She did so good and actually woke up to say hello to everyone. They got to see her awake and alert, which alot of people don't usually get to see! We took a picture of her on our way out the door. She defiantely ddin't keep the sunglasses on but she looked too cute not to share this picture!

all dressed up!

Emily attended her first wedding today. She got all dressed up and wore some "ballet slippers" that matched her dress perfectly. She slept thru the entire wedding and most of the reception but she looked pretty anyways!

here's a picture of pretty Emi with the pretty bride, Rebecca

Here's a picture of Emily, mommy, and Aunt Rhianna and Miss Gabby. Emily and Gabby are 3 weeks apart. They are already borrowing shoes from eachother!

a little crowded?!

I guess there wasn't enough arm room in her crib..she had to slide her arm through the rails. I found her like this when I went to check on her the night before last. She was sleeping like a rock too!

sitting pretty

Emily has really gotten good at holding her head up and sitting in her bumbo chair. She's still a bit wobbly but that's to be expected. She really suprises herself when she's sitting up straight and her head isn't bobbing to the side. She loves her chair!

5 weeks!

Emily is 5 weeks old today! Time is flying. She's getting more alert and making more sounds now. It's so sweet! Still working on a smile a day but when you get one it's totally worth everything you did to try and get that smile!!

Emi and her Aunties

Emi's Auntie Rhianna and Auntie Jessica had a "Welcome Home Emily" Sunday Sundae shower for us this past Sunday. It was alot of fun. Emi slept thru the whole thing though. Here's a picture before falling asleep with Rhianna and Jessica.

Thumper steals a kiss....

Emi's first few smiles!

I don't know if it was the early morning partying her and I were doing this morning because we sure weren't sleeping. Maybe she's smiling about it now. When Will had to go to work this morning and he went to say goodbye he said he got a huge grin from her but wasn't sure if it was real. Well, I got to talking to her this morning and sure enough... it's real! We have smiles and grins! Please excuse my silly talk in the video, but Emily seemed to like it! That is what a proud, happy momma sounds like! Here's her first few smiles!

1 month old!

Emily turned 1 month old today! Happy 1 month sweetheart! She weighed in at the doctor today at 8lbs 1oz. She is 2lbs 1oz above her birth weight! Yay! The doctor says she is growing very very well and she's also grown 2 inches! We're so proud of our baby girl!

our little glow worm

growing, growing.....

Okay we saw 8 pounds on the scale today! Granted, she was dressed, but she had a fresh diaper on so that wasn't making it any heavier. I am so curious to see how right on it is when she gets weighed on Friday at the dr!
This baby scale was Aunt Marjie's when she was a baby. Her parents let us borrow it. Now we can keep track of how fast Emily is growing!

4 weeks old!!

Time is certainly flying! Emi has her 1 month doctor appointment on Friday.

We're so proud of our growing girl!

cozy....

Okay, so Emily came to sleep with me this morning about 7:30am (daddy was at work already) she was cozy and snuggly and she slept 4 hours!! So now we know she's cozy in mom and dad's bed. She's still doing really well in her crib though!

playing makes me tired
