Time to Update

I'll take the chance to update since Emily is sleeping right now.

Here she is on June 19, 1 month old!


She's also started smiling and cooing. It melts our hearts every time.


We took our first trip to Indiana and met Eric's best friends and their kids


Daddy better watch out for Bridger though, he's not ready for Emily to have a boyfriend


Emily visited Daddy at his swim meet on Father's Day. Before we know it, she'll be swimming instead of visiting.


Hanging out with cousin Arianna.


Finally, Emily had her first professional pictures taken:


Update: Aunt Erica came and visited Emily all the way from Virginia! (Sorry Erica this was the only picture taken with my camera, so send me some pics)

I'm 21! Days that is

Emily is 3 weeks old!! She is starting to sleep a little longer at night and staying awake longer in the day. She is also realizing that she can make lots of sounds and practices them while she's awake. Here are some pictures from the last week.

Working on her abs, doing the iron cross:


Daddy trying out his carrier:


She's a little too small still and definitely not liking it


She is loving bath time and doesn't mind when we pour water on her face:



Daddy also gave Emily her first bottle this week. She took to it very well and is still nursing very well.

(If you noticed the milk is green, it's because we put her vitamins in the milk)

This coming weekend should be really exciting, Emily will be meeting her Great Grandpa Barber and Great Grandma Armstrong. I can't wait for them to see her! We are also taking her to her first wedding and she will be meeting Eric's two best friends and their children. Both have boys, Bridger is 7 months old and Will is 2 weeks older than Emily. Eric will be keeping a close watch on her since he says she can't date until she's 40!

And if you made it this far, here's a short video of bathtime:

2 Weeks

My little girl is getting bigger, 2 weeks old now! Her cheeks are definitely getting chubbier. We had another doctor's appointment today and she weighs 7lbs 5oz. The doctor said she is gaining very well and feedings are going well. We don't have to go back for 2 weeks.

Today is Eric's last day at home. I'm going to miss having his help all day long. Now I'm going to have to make my own meals and get off the couch more often! At least he only works Wednesday and then has his usual day off on Thursday. We'll ease back into his work schedule.

This weekend Emily gets to meet some more family members, Aunt Melody and cousins Dylan, Tristan, and Arianna. Should be lots of fun!
