2 months old!

This past Saturday, Emmerson turned 2 months old!  We went for her checkup Friday.  She weighs 13 pounds (95th percentile) and is 23 inches long (75th percentile) - she is growing SO much!  (And is actually only 7 ounces shy of where her chunky monkey brother was at this age!)  She is such a good baby...she is sleeping a 6 to 7 hour stretch at night - hallelujah!  So we are all getting great rest.  She obviously eats like a little piggie during the day (hence the 95th percentile!).  She loves the bouncy seat just like Carter did.  She has watched her very first Baby Mozart video and LOVED it!  It held her attention almost the whole time.  She smiles ALL THE TIME!  And is also "talking" a lot - especially right after she eats when she is a super happy girl :)  See the video below!  She is starting to play in her "gym" more - trying a little bit of tummy time - and sitting in the Bumbo a little as well.  More of all that in the upcoming month I am sure!  All in all a super sweet, super lovable, AWESOME little angel! 







Blastball!

Our little ball player!

Carter is playing Blastball this Spring through the Plano Baseball Association.  Blastball is similar to t-ball, but geared towards 3 year olds.  They hit off a tee, but the ball is much softer (i.e. no need for helmets) and they only have 1 base.  And it honks when you jump on it - you'll see quite a bit of that in the last video ;)  He had his first game this past Saturday, and let me tell you I have not laughed that hard in a LONG time.  It was hysterical - and so cute.  My words can't even do it justice.  If I could have just video'd the entire hour - maybe it would be better understood...There are 3 videos at the bottom of this post.  1 is of Carter batting, 1 is him doing a great job fielding!  And the last one - the other Team is batting, Carter SHOULD be in the field - and not on the base.  But (because of the honking base) he just can't stay away.  Oh my gosh...priceless! 

Running around at practice!

He had just gotten his "jersey" and hat - you can see he is taking it VERY serious!



Hitting at practice...

Good swing!

Getting ready to field.

At the game, in the infield.  He looks thrilled ;)

Practice swings at the game...

Priceless picture in the dug out...he is #3!

Yes - you guessed it!  Our little doll is the one with his back turned to home plate, digging in the dirt!  Lol!

Team meeting with Coach Tracy...melts my heart!

Getting advice from Daddy - so sweet!

Easton, Carter and Will - what cuties!!

Hitting during the game!

6 weeks old...

Hard to believe that Ms. Emmerson turned 6 weeks old last week!  Time is going too fast...just like it did with Carter :(  Emmerson is a really good baby - she is growing like CRAZY!  She definitely has a huge appetite, just like her big brother did when he was her age :)  We did away with the newborn diapers and clothes WEEKS AGO!  She is sleeping well...and starting to enjoy more play time by herself during the day.  She loves the bouncy seat, going for walks, is FULL of smiles, is starting to make lots of noise, trying to coo and talk, and is starting to play in her "gym" more and more.  We are loving our time with her!

I know it looks like he may be trying to choke her - but he was trying to hold her and be sweet.  I promise!  ;)

 

This is the day she was 1 month old!

Meeting her Great Grandma during a visit from our family in Houston!

Sitting and "chatting" with Gigi during their visit!

Sweet cuddle / sleepy time in the morning :)
