3 weeks of Angelic Adorableness

Has it really been since June 12th for my last post? I guess you could say this has been one of the busiest summers I have ever had, yet I can't really say I've accomplished anything. (Unless you want to count raising a newborn!) My Grammy has been begging for some new pics, and my own father had to ask me where the heck I've been since the ole blog has been vacant, SO... this post is for you Grammy! I just received pics from Emerson's 3 week pictures. It's crazy to see these now that she is 8 weeks old and is so much bigger! She has REALLY filled out and is wearing some 3 month clothes! Mostly though, she is still in her 0-3 month outfits, but I have a feeling it won't be long until she is in a 6 month wardrobe! The past 2 months have gone by so quickly! Emme was a superstar throughout the whole photo shoot. She didn't fuss once; not even when we put a brain bow on her! (What's a brainbow you ask? Stick with me and see for yourself!)

Emme is a total kicking machine. When pregnant, I always said she would be a gymnast or a kickboxer, and she still kicks like crazy! This shot was not an easy one to get, but Marie of A Day In The Life Photography (http://www.marietaylor612.typepad.com/adayinthelifephotography/) is persistant and snapped at the perfect moment. I love it!

Emerson LOVED to be swaddled. Not so much anymore though. I think she takes after me, kicking the sheets off every night!

Da DA DA DAAAAAA!!!!! I give you, the brain bow. Even though she has a TON of hair, she doesn't have enough for a hair band, so it is more of a bow on the brain. A brain bow. I thank Marie for that term. Anywho, this pic is classic. She has attitude written all over her face. This is a chick not to be messed with.

The best part of this pic, other than the sheer adorableness of it, is the fact that about 3 seconds later Barry got peed on... all over... My sister, Annisa, had the most classic pic ever of her son peeing on her face as she lifted his naked little self over her head. Barry's response, "You people are stupid. Why would anyone take a picture of a naked baby? You know they would pee and poop everywhere!" hee hee... it's so worth it though, don't ya think?

I can't get over how tiny she was! She looks even smaller next to my swollen hand! ha! Thank goodness they are finally back to normal!

This picture is so magical to me. I guess magical is the word I want, I don't know how to explain it. It just reminds me of mushrooms and fairies and magic. Don't ask me why, it just does.

Well, hopefully with this post I'll get back into the swing of things. I will definitely post more recent pics, I have some cute videos, new layouts, and some recipes that are to die for. (Think Oreos and Ice Cream and homemade fudge and... well, you'll just have to wait...)

Grammy and Pappy, we miss you and can't wait to see you soon! Until then, enjoy the pics!
