Changing By The Minute

 

A lot has gone on since the last post! Emory has received LOTS of visits from her grandparents. Martin's parents came into town for Dustin and Mindy's wedding. Emory had so much fun visiting with her Grandpa and Nana. She even went to her first restaurant...she loved hanging out at the Mexican restaurant. Dustin and Mindy's wedding was beautiful. I will post some pictures soon.

 

 

First time being held by Uncle Dustin

My parents have made two trip to see Emory recently. They came into town the weekend of April 13th, and May 4th. This was the first time that my dad had seen Emory since Christmas! We spent most of the time hanging around the house with Emory. Martin and I took advantage of having them here, we enjoyed a night out! We went to the Black Keys concert with Dustin and Mindy....needless to say it was GREAT! Below are some of the pictures from their visits

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Martin and I have really enjoyed seeing how much Emory has changed lately. She is a little rolly polly now! She is constantly rolling from back to belly and belly to back. She's even started sleeping on her belly now. Last night she slept all night on her belly with her butt in the air....it was pretty cute. We also put her bouncer together and she has such a fun time playing with all the toys. She's still not quite sure how to bounce or turn around...but she loves the toys.

 

 

 

 

Getting much better at tummy time

 

 

 Emory also had a visit from her friend Hudson recently. Hudson is 5 months older than Emory and he is crawling EVERYWHERE! It made me realize that things are about to get very interesting when she starts crawling.

 

 

Emory has been babbling a lot. She has started making the cutest little "farting" noise with her lips. She spits all over the place when she does it, but it is very very cute!

 

 

I went to the kitchen, and when I came back she had this tray in her hands.

I really can't believe that she is almost 6 months old! She has literally been changing every single day. It's only a matter of time before she is sitting up on her own. When we lay her down on the floor she lifts her head off the ground and tries her hardest to sit up.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Today we celebrated my first Mother's Day. It doesn't feel like I am actually a mom. Martin got me a beautiful charm bracelet with a charm that says "mom", one that is a slipper with Emory's birthstone that has her name engraved on the back, and a great dane charm! Very thoughtful....and meaningful. Next weekend we will be heading to Atlanta to welcome Emory's cousin Parker into the world. He still hasn't made his appearance yet, but they will induce her Thursday if he's still being stubborn. Lots of pics of Parker will be coming soon!
