6 Weeks

Oh dear.. Momma's behind again! Ha

It's amazing how quickly each week comes and goes... I really think I blink and it's Sunday AGAIN and you are another week older! SO NOT FAIR! I just want to freeze time and stay in this moment forever.

Emily you are a precious 6 week old here!

You LOVE the ceiling fan!

You stare at it constantly. You literally look at it for an hour each morning while Mommy gets ready! You use to sit in your bouncy seat in the bathroom while I would get ready but you would quickly get tired of that, so now you lay on our bed and just kick, stare and "talk" to the fan! HA

At 6 weeks old you:

* wear a size 1 diaper

*wear 0-3 month clothes

* weigh 9lbs (that's as of weigh-in on Friday)

*Are cooing & kicking when you get excited

*really study our face & mouth when we hold you

* smile when we talk to you!

* love riding in the car

Your Daddy and I still can't believe you are our little girl! That we finally have you and that you're are all ours! It's the most amazing thing in the world. We are SO thankful for you and love you to pieces!

5 Weeks & First Snow

The day Emily turned 5 weeks old it snowed!

It only snowed about 2" where we live but further south it snowed a TON!... Lucky them!

We stayed in and snuggled, drank hot chocolate and watched a movie. You are too small to do anything just yet!

Although you had no idea what was going on... it was exciting for Mommy & Daddy because it was your first snow! I'm sure there will be a few more snow days this year and of course we will have to take pictures to document each one of them! I can't wait until you are old enough to play in the snow, build a snowman and make snow cream!

Oh the memories we will make!

She was making a silly face here... probably because she was thinking "my Mommy is crazy because she clipped a bow on the ear of my outfit!" HA... we were just being silly!

This week you have:

*started cooing!! It's the CUTEST thing EVER!!

*discovered the ceiling fan and you LOVE it! It's great entertainment while Mommy gets ready in the mornings!

*discovered the T.V and really likes watching football! HA.. It makes your Daddy proud!

*started sucking on your hand during tummy time.

You're the sweetest thing ever! We love you SO much Emily!

Happy 1 Month!!

Our sweet girl turned 1 month old today!

You are such a sweet and silly little girl! You seriously make the funniest faces.

Here is your super sad face... melts our heart!

Here is the "What are you looking at" face.. HA!

Your neck is getting strong and you can hold your head up for a long time sometimes!

This photo shoot is getting old and boring! Lastly the "Would you hurry before I fall asleep" face!

See you next week for the 5 week post!

** January 7th at 1 month 2 days old, Emily weighed 8 lbs. 10 oz.

4 Weeks Old

Emily is 4 weeks old! She is growing like a weed and ever changing.

Kinda makes Mommy sad to look back just 4 weeks ago at her hospital picture compared to now and see the difference.... but so thankful that she is healthy and growing!

This is kind of a BIG week in many ways around our house.

* We will be cheering on the Razorbacks while they play in the Sugar Bowl Tuesday!

* Emily you turn 1 month old Wednesday!

*Mommy & Daddy celebrate 4 years of marriage Thursday!

Emily you are becoming more and more alert each week. You have been smiling a lot this week and that just makes our day! You are such a wiggler and you LOVE to stretch and make funny faces! HA

You are such a joy to have around!

3 Weeks Old

3 Weeks Old!

These past 3 weeks have flown by!

A lot has happened in just 3 sort weeks too..

You attended church for the first time for candle light service, Santa came and you celebrated your first Christmas, we went out to eat for the first time with you (you slept the entire time and were SO good) and we rang in the New Year!!

We have been doing tummy time the past few weeks to strengthen your little neck.

At first you don't mind it but then after awhile you start to get fussy.

You have gained more weight.. not sure what you weigh now but Mommy sure can tell because you are feeling out and your carrier is starting to become too heavy for Mommy to even lift... yes, Mommy is weak! Ha

We are SO excited to watch you grow throughout this new year of 2011!

There will be MANY more "firsts" and I'm ready to watch and document every single one of them!

Christmas 2010

We had an amazing Christmas this year as a new family of 3!!

It was such a special one for Mike & I as we got to celebrate it with our first born.

Such an awesome feeling that I hope to never forget!

Emily was just 20 days old and so very tiny on Christmas Day.

She was spoiled beyond belief between us, grandparents, and aunts & uncles with gifts and sweet loving.... I don't think the child was ever put down!! HA... Can you blame us though?!

Although she slept the day away and was too young to understand what was going on, I hope that she will look back later at all of the pictures and hopefully this blog and see how much she was loved!

Look Santa came!! My goodness you must have been a good girl!

Sweet chubby cheeks!

Where's Emily? HA...

Look at how small she is compared to her stocking and her gifts.... yes, these are ALL hers!

Emily you got lots of clothes and toys for when you get a little older for Christmas.

We can't wait to see what next Christmas will be like. You will be mobile and into everything.

Mommy is not ready for that just yet!

Hope you all had a VERY Merry Christmas!
