15 months/ 8 weeks

Well, my mom left yesterday...such a sad day! She has been here since a few days before Emily came home and has been a HUGE help! She was the reason I was able to still get out and come to things even though Em was home. Can't wait to hole up in my house waiting for M to not be working. I can't even write that without being sad...it will be summer soon! Anyway, my mom took the early morning feed so I could get a little more sleep and she even took over night time cares for K and got her sleeping through the night! So I just wanted to say thanks to her for all her work and compassion...I know a little girl who is going to miss her terribly! Oh and thanks to my Dad for letting her come for that long!




So Emily is eight weeks old...adjusted. She is eight pounds three ounces and just shy of 20 inches long. She isn't on the charts yet but if we do an adjusted chart, she is in the whopping 3%!! Gotta love it!

My mom found this lamb and decided it reminded her of Em so we are going to use it for a size comparison like K's monkey.


Yes, that is K on me...not running around like an ADHD kid on steroids...she is 15 months old and got her shots and she was miserable! BUT we enjoyed it as we got to hold and cuddle her for a day. She is now outside lounging in her new swing and watching dad mow the lawn...this age is awesome! (Minus the tantrums :)).

She keeps asking to hold Emily so to distract her from stabbing her head, we play the 'body parts' game.

Where is her nose?

Where is her mouth?

Where is her hand?


Have a great day! March of Dimes walk this Saturday (tomorrow) if anyone wants to come...early in the morning but don't have to do anything but show up and walk...give me a call if you want to go/hitch a ride.

Very cute pics of those little girls. I have been praying that Emily would sleep all night.
