Sweet Emery is two weeks old!

Sweet Emery,

Today you are two weeks old, in fact, your actual birthday is in one hour from the time I type this. How have two weeks gone so quickly? You have already changed so much and are simply a blessing to us all. I can tell we are going to have a lot of fun in the years to come!

You are a very good baby and we are very grateful. Mommy read that babies your age cry for an average of four hours, I told Duchess that you probably cry for an average of four minutes (knock on wood)! Your big brother had reflux so bad that we are not used to having a quiet baby and we are really liking it!!!!

You sleep very well and we are now waking you every four hours to eat. Sometimes you'll start squeaking a little earlier than that and we'll get you fed and you are happy. You are very content to be held and are very much a people baby. Of course, we don't complain about that one bit and every person that meets you could sit and hold you all day... if we'd let them! But we are greedy and want to do it ourselves!

Nursing is still touch and go and totally depends on your moods. Usually early mornings and evenings you will nurse readily, but other times you want nothing to do with it. That's OK though, all that matters is you are healthy and home!

We are so thankful to have you and your big brother in our lives, not a moment goes by that I don't wonder just how I got this lucky! I love you little girl, you and Chase make everything worth it!

~Mommy

P.S. I won't mention that your new nickname is Princess Poops-A-Lot... because one day down the road, that might be embarrassing to you, and I'd never want to have that happen! ;o)
