So did I mention that time is flying? Wow, I can’t believe Emmery is already 11 weeks old. Everyone tells you to enjoy it because it goes by quick, but I just didn’t realize how true that was until I had my own.
Emmery has recently started smiling and cooing, and I feel like I better get this stuff written down or it could be forgotten. Not that I would actually forget that she did these things, its just that I want to remember how exciting it all was and how we felt during this time in her life.
Since bringing her home, Em has been an easy-going baby. She only really cries when she’s hungry, which is often! She eats about every two hours, on the dot. She sleeps very well at night, usually only waking once to be changed and fed.
As far as her looks, right now it is up in the air. I look at her I see myself, and two seconds later I look at her and see Michel. It’s pretty funny because we hear, “oh she looks like Mikey,” and “oh she looks like Sarah” almost every day. Mikey and I have been told we look alike, so that could have something to do with it. But I think as she gets older she will favor one of us more than the other. Only time will tell.
Lately, Em has been smiling, laughing, and cooing more and more. It is the cutest thing. And just about everytime she smiles it brings tears to my eyes. I feel like such a sappy mother to be saying that, but its true. It is just such an amazing thing to see her happy and to know that we are making her happy.
I started back to work on May 13th. The first day was pretty tough, but I made it. Our neighbor Michelle is watching her. She has 19-month old twin boys, so she has her hands full. But she does a great job and I know that Emmery is getting her needs met while I am away. I am just so glad that she is not in a daycare at this young age.
