4 Months Adjusted

Emily Grace is considered four months old as of yesterday. Here is a shot of her big, bright eyes.



She is so small (10.0 pounds, 23 inches and too small for size zero shoes) that she is still not on the growth charts...but then again, our girl wasn't made to fit into any normal charts so I guess it shouldn't surprise us.





And our sweet, little angel sleeping away...we are most definitely losing the pacifier vs thumb battle with this one.



We had an appt at the hospital yesterday so I went ahead and took her in to the NICU so she could see her nurses. Everyone was very happy to see how well she is doing and of course to coo over the tiny baby with the glasses.

Footprints

So I was making a card for Daddy for Father's Day and I decided to take the girl's foot and hand prints as a cute accent. Well, I got one of each but started to look at the prints from when they were born. How amazing!

The top prints are K (pink when she was born and black now) and the bottom are Emily's (black when born and pink now). The funny thing? Emily now is the exact same size as K when she was born. And K was not a big girl...six pounds when she came home from the hospital. Em is 10 pounds now but she has tiny little hands and feet.





Yes, that's a penny. You know Em's hands were tiny since these prints always look bigger than their hands.
