Big Day (Again)

Yesterday was Daddy's "trial" day and I think it went ok, although she wouldn't take the bottle from him (even though she had previously). My theory is that she was just so shaken by her day at daycare that it carried over into yesterday. I thoroughly enjoyed work, since Wednesday is my favorite facility, but it took me until 9pm last night to finish my paperwork.

So today was just a Mommy & Emma day, and went to the OPA office to visit the staff, and then dropped by another facility to visit the social worker and some of the residents. Emma, as always, was a big hit. She just adores getting smiles and although she got fussy towards the end, she did really well. We changed 3 diapers while we were out and breastfed twice.

She was eating about every hour today, I think catching up from yesterday. When we got home, we had to change clothes (because of spitup) and then we took a nap together. She was wearing her new outfit that my friend Joe from California sent, and then she got her new crochet blanket from Great-Aunt Janie! It's so super-soft and just a perfect color... we love it.



Emma is "talking" more and more each day. It is amazing to watch her develop and her world expand. She's had many a conversation with Daddy, and is giving more frequent smiles. When she is smiling and cooing at me, my whole world melts away and it's just her and I -- I'm so amazed by this little girl of mine. I still can't believe I'm a mother. Seems so strange to say that, but very awesome.
