Pictures of Emma on the day of her blessing!

I am finding a rather strange trend... there are not very many pictures of me with emma (unless i ask for it) because i usually take the pictures!

Cute pictures of Emma

Because we have hard wood floors and two dogs i have to be very careful about tummy time. I realized at 7 weks that emma was not getting enough After being diligent for a week she suddenly popped her head up like this long enough for me to run and get a camera and take three pictures
Isn't she so fun!!
Daddy carrying Emma on one of our walks

HERE ARE SOME PICTURES TAKEN OF EMMA AT 6 WEEKS. ISN'T SHE A LITTLE ANGEL!

8 weeks!

Emma is growing strong and is very healthy. As of last Monday (at 7 weeks) she was 12 lb 4 oz 22 and 3/4 inch in length. Ryan says he was a big baby and in my family the babies are all big and then lean out when they get moving. She is 95th percentile in height and 90th in weight. With both our families being so athletic, we are sure Emma will be as well. She is just sooo strong and as far as development continues to be ahead of the milestones. She is always smling and she is such a playful communicater- for what she can do. As of the last week or so she is sleeping 5-6 hours already.

She makes the cutest faces we have ever seen and her noises and squeals of delight just make us laugh! It's hard to get them for the camera though... unfortunately our camera has about a four second delay. She has a very expressive face and it glows with joy! Ryan says she is like her mommy because she is definitely a morning person (unlike Daddy). When she first wakes up she is so happy and talks her baby talk, and smiles and giggles before we even take her out of the bassinet.

We hope you enjoy the pictures......

Emma loves to play on her bouncy seat. We know it's early (development wise) but there are definitely little giggles that escape her cute mouth!
Once again in the swing. She is really filling it up.





This is our precious little buttercup laying in her crib....

6-7 weeks

Emma's living the sweet life in her rocker.Who's yer daddy?
She passes out in the cutest positions.

Emmas favorite spot to snooze is againse her mom or dad. Becca loves Emma, but sometimes she wants to be included in snuggle time.

Pictures at 5 weeks

It is hard to believe our little buttercup is 5 weeks old. It is so fun seeing her become more aware of the world. On her 5 week birthday bith Ryan and I got seperate smiles from her. Both times she was just waking up and one of us went to her and said "Hi Emma" and she looked at us and smiled. It was so cute.... In the swing again. We will take pictures here periodically to compare her to earlier pictures....
She hates her baths, she cries bloody murder every time. Ryan thinks it is funny because it is just water. Actually last night she was quiet for a couple seconds... Maybe we are seeing a positive change.


Becca adores her little Emma. She is so protective of her and always is right there when Emma is crying to make sure she is okay. When Ryan is taking his turn with a crying Emma at night Becca will come and wake me up to be with Emma.

Getting a massage from Daddy. She loves getting these and they relax her at night. She gets them after her bath every other night and just before bed on the others.
Still getting a massage......
Sleeping... or passed out!
