E = 6 mos!

Our sweet baby E is 6 months old today!
Seems impossible!

Emerson, you bring so much joy to our family!
Your smile is contagious.
Like your brother and your daddy, you smile even with your eyes!

You are full of sweetness!

You love to play...especially with this diamond ring Gram/Papa gave you for Christmas!

You are also super inquisitive...
...your brother and sister give you lots to look at and think about! 

Rolling Over!

Life as we know it has changed...Emerson is rolling!
All.
Over.
The.
Place!

Emerson's Tricks

While I realize this video will be boring to the "average" viewer, I wanted to post it here to be able to remember Emerson when she was sooo tiny. Jeff has been calling her "Pip" because she seems to get the hiccups so frequently.

Nurse Visit

Today I brought Emerson to meet two of the nurses who helped with her prenatal care.
Kathy did our ultrasounds to make sure Em was growing appropriately (and so kindly often switched the machine to 3D mode so we could get awesome views of our angel!) and Beth did our weekly fluid checks and nonstress tests.

Great lungs, 10 fingers, 10 toes!

Think she'll weigh the 30lbs I've gained? =)
