Funny Faces!




Emily and I were just chillin' this afternoon and I was capturing her various facial expressions. I caught some doozies! She'd make a funny face and I'd start laughing and then she'd make another and I'd laugh even harder. I had tears running down my face! She's so cute!

Break Time!



Ahhh, Emily is napping! She's in her swing and she's fast asleep! I should be getting stuff done around the house, but I don't wanna. Instead, I'm editing pictures and updating my blog.

We're having fun with our digital camera. We have taken so many pictures of Emily...soooo many! Well, she's cute and we can't help it.

Poor Chrissy

We've been short on cash lately and last night I had a sweet tooth attack and wanted something sweet right then. I went rummaging through drawers and jeans looking for any kind of cash. I was hoping to find a dollar or two and I ended up finding $22!! It was in a pair of pregnancy pants. I'd already put my pregnancy pants away in a box, so that goes to show how desperate I was to find money. I was so excited to find the cash that I hopped around the house and found Rob and showed him the money. We went and got snow cones...mmm.

Road Trip!


We went up to Paris this weekend to visit Mom and Dad. It took us four hours to get there! We ran into traffic on I-35 because of a wreck and then Emily needed to be fed so we stopped. Then she needed to be changed, so we stopped again. Traveling with an infant sure makes a difference!

First Real Smile!



Emily smiled for real for the first time this morning. I didn't catch it on camera, but it was so adorable! Rob had been playing with her on the floor and after he got up, I was playing with her and she smiled.

We had to take her to the doctor yesterday. She was acting like having a wet diaper was hurting her so we got her checked by the doctor. They did a catheter to get a urine specimen--not fun. The test came back normal. They're going to do a culture to make sure nothing's going on. Apparently Emily just gets really mad that her diaper is wet. She has a temper!! They weighed her and she now weighs 9 pounds 6 ounces!

We've been working on Tummy Time and she's doing pretty good. I can't believe how much she's changed! She's already outgrown her newborn onsies! I'm not ready for her to get big yet!

One Month Dr's Visit


Emily had her one month doctor's visit today. Actually, she didn't see the doctor; she just got her second Hep B shot. I wasn't prepared for this. I thought she got her next shots at her two month visit. Everything turned out okay, though. She cried a little bit and I didn't cry at all! I totally expected to cry. I had to be strong for Emily.

They could have at least given her a cute band-aid! Daffy Duck?!?

Emily is now 8 pounds, 13 ounces and 21 inches long.

Crash!


Emily hasn't slept well the past couple of nights and she hasn't napped well during the day. I finally got her to nap about thirty minutes ago after her fighting me all morning. She cried and cried. I cried a little bit, too. I could tell she was tired, but she just kept fighting. She is so cute when she's sleeping--and when she's awake, too!

One Month Old


I can't believe Emily is already one month old. So far it's been great being a mom. I don't sleep much at night, but I never slept well before she got here. Emily is getting bigger every day. She is starting to coo and she has such a cute little voice. I can't wait until she smiles!

Little Angel


Isn't she adorable?!? This is the dress that Emily is going to wear for her blessing. It's her great-great grandfather's dress made by her great-great-great grandmother. Neat, huh?
