Pictures

The first pictures is Emma on Easter Day, wearing a wonderful hat given to us by a friend in Cleveland.



This picture is from today -- all of our flowers are blooming and we wanted to show off her new outfit that Mommy got her.

Happy Easter!

Rattle Worm Makes Emma Happy!

Video #1 is about 30 seconds, voice of Rattle Worm provided by Mommy!




Video #2 is about 1 minute long, voice of Rattle Worm (and surprise ending) by Daddy!

Picture Post!

For fun!

Rattle Worm is a gift that Uncle Dean sent us. She *loves* her some Rattle Worm!! He's her morning buddy, and speaks to her with a southern accent. Poor Rattle Worm has some self-esteem issues since he has no arms, and no legs, and no mouth... LOL. I'll get a video of it later to post, as she finds it hilarious.


This is the most adorable outfit that Ms. Leslie at one of my facilities got Emma. Here is the rear view! It makes for a good reason to have her do tummy time (so Mommy can get pictures



And the front view! We really love the outfit, and it's so nice to have on a hot day like it's been.

Here's Emma, kissing and playing with her Easter bunny that Grandma and Grandpa Lewis sent. She loves the bunny! Especially since the bunny has developed a French accent and seems to fight with Rattle Worm over who gets to kiss Emma the most. She absolutely gets a kick out of that. Again, it's a MUST video moment that I'll get!

Future Psychologist!

Nothing like shaping them early.... :)

Shhhhh....

Don't tell anyone, but she's sleeping on her belly IN HER CRIB! (notice how I emphasize the "in the crib" part and not the "on her belly" part) She sleeps so much better on her belly or side, so we're experimenting with this tonight. We're at 20 minutes in there so far. Bedtime noise bear is still going, we'll see what happens when he shuts off.

In the short term, I'm going to get some crochet done. A friend of mine is due in a month and I'm only 1/3rd of the way through her baby's blanket.

14 Weeks Old - Pictures

I think that we took this yesterday (or maybe it was Sunday?). She fell asleep in the bouncer again, and I wanted to get a picture of how big her hands are getting.



This was her outfit today. The daycare ladies LOVED the little bunny feet!!

Still Sick...

So not much of an update again. We're ALL so sick! :( Poor Emma... she's not as bad as the first cold she got, but Daddy & I are feeling terrible. I can't breathe through my nose at all. Luckily, tomorrow is my "Friday" of the week and hopefully we can all spend the weekend recuperating. And enjoying this very spring-like weather we're having!

I do have pictures, and I think even a video to upload, so hopefully you'll get to see my little sweet pea again soon! We also have a huge thank you to send to Grandma and Grandpa Lewis for the two packages that arrived today, and to Aunt Ann who also sent a package! She's going to be spoiled for Easter. :)

Snotty Cold #2

It's sooooo exciting! (can you hear the sarcasm?)

So Daddy brought home a cold/flu bug from campus. It started with body aches, headache and low-grade temp, then went into a sore throat, and now a drippy nose. Poor Emma... she hasn't felt great all weekend. She was a trooper during day care though! She ate ALL of her first 3 bottles (2.5 oz in each) and got 1/2 oz out of the last one before Mommy got there to feed her from the tap.

I can't believe she's already 14 weeks old today. I definitely need to take some more pictures and get them posted ASAP.
