More Pictures

We ordered this cute little knitted hat on Etsy.com and have had so much fun taking pictures of Emery in it. We attempted to take pictures three times last Sunday! Emery would wake up and want to eat, she would get very mad that she was naked, and she even peed and pooped on me a couple of times! It was pretty hilarious! We got some great pictures out of it though. I am so thankful to have a talented husband who enjoys playing around with photography!









Here's one from when Mom and Rich were still here. We don't have any pictures of the three of us so I thought I'd put this one up.

Well, Emery is three weeks and two days old now. She is eating well and is up to 7 lbs 5 oz! We are very happy about that! She is still so tiny though...she lives in sleepers because none of her cute outfits fit her yet. She is eating more now, so maybe she's about to go through a little growth spurt. She is a very good girl and likes to sleep at night giving me some good 4 hour stretches of sleep most nights. We stay in bed as long as possible each morning and then move the the couch where we hang out most of the day. I love holding her and watching her cute facial expressions while she sleeps. She has the sweetest smile and is very expressive with her eyes. I love when she is awake and soaking in everything around her. We look forward to Daddy coming home every afternoon and can't wait to have two weeks with him during Christmas break. It is going to be so much fun to have that time together! I have four and a half more weeks with this little girl...I can't believe half of my maternity leave is already gone! Time has flown by! It is going to be so hard to go back to work. I will just have to keep in mind that I'll have Spring break to look forward to and then all summer!

What a sweetie! I can't believe how much she is growing and changing already. Love and miss y'all.

Love her cap! Notice the color? Wasn't it you who loved purple hats? Anyway, she's precious and I can't wait to see her.

She is definitely adorable! GREAT pictures- you should make a baby Emery calendar! Glad to hear all is going so well. Who will keep her when you go back to work?

David's mom is going to keep her. She's going to bring her up to school during my morning break so that she can nurse and then I can pick her up at 2:00. Luckily, I have 6th period off and David has 7th period off. So, I'll pick her up and feed her at 2:00 and then pass her on to David while I teach my last class. It will work out pretty nicely! I hate that I am going back to work in a month though. It's going to be so hard to leave her!

Those pictures are gorgeous and that hat is so awesome. Etsy is just the best for finding beautiful things like that. I'm due in June. I may have to check out that shop and get a cute little hat like that. I just love it.
