Emily's first cold

Poor Emily, she's so sick. I woke up with her at 1:30 Saturday morning and stood with her in the shower to help decongest her. Mommy and daddy didn't get a whole lot of sleep that night to say the least.

She is feeling so much better now. Mommy & Daddy pulled out all the stops to help her get a good night's rest. We got a nice cool mist humidifier with a vicks vapor pad, saline drops for her nose, and a vapor body wash for the bath. It seemed to work. She slept great last night. In fact, I had to wake her up this morning, which is unusual considering she usually wakes me up everyday around 6:15 am. Glad to see her feeling better. The only problem is I think daddy caught it now. :(

The best mother's day present

My first mother's day was amazing. I enjoyed spending quality time with my sweet little girl. Dale surprised me with Emily in the crib holding her card. She even signed it!! Granted, it wasn't legible, but it was her first signature. He put the flowers in the crib. I am the luckiest woman in the world.

Let me show you my belly button...

Emily is constantly grabbing at her shirt, her bib, you name it and putting everything in her mouth. Every morning we have a little picture session and she smiles so pretty for the camera. What a HAM! :) It was the funniest thing yesterday. The daycare caretaker was telling me about how Emily let out the loudest burp and all the kids stopped and looked at her. When she was telling me about it, I started laughing and Emily busted out laughing too. She laughed because mommy was laughing. Then it was a chain reaction - I started laughing at her laughing, she laughed at me laughing, and so on...This little girl is too cute.
