Emerson is 3 Months! (May 4)

 It is hard to believe that my baby is growing up so fast! She is 3 months already. She was in a great mood when we got her pictures done and MJ got some really cute shots! Her pictures really show off her rolls and her cheeks. Might as well show them off while they are adorable!
This picture is my favorite. I love how she is all curled up!




Aunt Steph made her this cute tutu!


We are finally adjusting to being a family of 6. You fit in great. You are a very tolerant baby and even though Bryce, Caleb and Abby are up in you space all the time you think they are funny and love to have them play with you. The newness of having a baby hasn't wore off for them yet. They still have to take turns and in the morning with you, someone usually "calls" having you first. Their favorite thing is before bed when we let them each take a turn holding you in their bed. Bryce and Caleb each show you stuffed animals and play games with you. Abby usually spends her time kissing all over you and then you are Done with kids for the night, so Abby has to go last.
You are a great little eater and have managed to be a lot more flexible than you sister was. You love to nurse and almost exclusively nurse when I am home with you mainly because I like feeding you and I Hate pumping. But you love your bottle too and take it very well for Mackenzie, Grandma and Daddy. You still eat about every 3 hours and in the evening you get a little snacky and like  to eat every hour for a few minutes.
You are following in your sister's footsteps when it comes to sleeping. You usually go to bed between 9-10 and then are up between 12-1 to eat and again at 4 and then you would prefer to snack until 6 am when you would like to get up for the day. As you see that doesn't leave a lot of time for sleeping so you end up in our bed most nights just so I can get a little sleep. During the day you take a morning nap that is about an hour long and you take a really long afternoon nap where you sleep 2-3 hours most days.
Your favorite things are riding in the carrier that I wear. You aren't a big fan of your carseat so I will usually take you out of that and "wear" you while we run errands. You love having your brothers and sis talk to you. Your favorite toys are your Sophia the giraffe and this little beanie baby dog that Bryce gave you. You also love linkys. You love to look around outside and really enjoy walks.
You weigh 15 lbs (I forgot to measure you) and are wearing 3-6 month clothes and a few 6 month things. So far you eyes are still really blue but Bryce hopes that you will eventually join the green eyed team (Bryce and I). You have a pretty fair complexion and in the right light your hair looks really red. Grandpa Myron finally got his red head!
