Happy New Year!!!

Off to look at Christmas lights

Last week Justin, Courtney and I took Emerson to look at Christmas lights. Well I guess it really was for us since she can't see much from her car seat :) We played Christmas carols and must say we were all disappointed in the light displays this year. It was still fun and good to spend time together which is what the holidays are about.

We wore our Christmas pajamas on the ride since it was close to our bedtime

3 months

I apologize for the hiatus but sweet little Emerson keeps me quite busy :) I can't believe she is 3 months already. She is smiling all the time which melts your heart. Justin and I heard her laugh (we think) one afternoon but have not heard it since. She has started to squeal a lot like little girls do. Emerson loves to play on her gym and will do so for an hour which amazes me at this age. She also loves listening to music. Santa is coming this week and we can't wait. My parents are coming tomorrow and we are very excited to spend the holidays with them. We are so blessed and very thankful for the time we get to spend together.

My mom made her outfit and bow...isn't it adorable

2 months old

We go to the Dr. tomorrow for our 2 month check up and vaccinations. Wish us luck! I can't wait to see how much see weighs and we pray for a healthy report.

Happy Halloween!

ONE MONTH OLD...

Below is Emerson's one month old picture. I am going to take the same picture in her chair each month to see how much she changes as she grows. Also below is my one month old picture to compare. Justin and I feel so fortunate to be given this amazing gift and are so thankful God has blessed us with a happy healthy baby girl. Enjoy!

FIRST PHOTO SHOOT

Miss E had her first photo shoot on her 2 week old birthday. Below are some pictures from that shoot. We did all of the pictures in our home primarily in her nursery and it took almost 4 hours. She was a trooper with only a few meltdowns and one diaper mishap in her crib right before we could get the shot. Emerson was exhausted after the shoot and slept like a champ that night. We had many outfit changes to the sweet baby but I know she will cherish these photos one day when she is older. We have ordered our favorites in 16x20 for our home to cherish forever.
