Emmy Turns Six Months

Yea, Emerson is six months old today! Yeah, we know, it has gone by super fast! She is truly an incredibly easy baby. She rarely ever cries, I think I can probably count on my hands the number of times she has really had a good cry, and I think 8 of those were because she did something silly like got her foot caught in her crib, or I scratched her with my ring or something like that! Easy breezy kid for sure! I remember saying how Bryden was spoiling us because she was such an easy baby, but truly, Emerson is even easier. She is so laid back, and go with the flow, she is soooooo smiley and so happy. All it takes is eye contact and you get a huge smile from her! She loves to screech and holler really loudly, and it makes us all laugh. Jim was home watching the girls the other night, and he said that Bryden and Emmy were "talking" back and forth. Bryden would screech, and then Emmy, and back and forth for several minutes! So funny! She is not much of a napper, more like a power napper, though sometimes in the afternoon she takes a long nap. She likes it best to cuddle on or with someone to fall asleep, if we try to move her, most times she wakes up and is ready to go again. She sleeps about 12 hours at night, straight on through, and has been since she was 11 weeks old. She has the most gorgeous blue eyes, they are so radiant and shimmering with excitement all the time, and she has the cutest ears, though I don't think she will think so as she goes through her middle school and teen years, but hopefully she will appreciate them one day. She gets them from her Daddy, and I hope she turns out just as amazing of a person as her Daddy is. She loves her big sister and will smile and giggle any time Bryden is with her. She is always kicking her feet and wants to move...if you put her down in one place, watch out, she won't be there long, she will roll, or scoot, or arch her back, almost like she's crawling on her back, to move around the room! We can tell how much she adores us all by the way she gazes into our eyes and just grins when we smile at her. The simple pleasure in life, and she is full of them! Happy half birthday Emerson, we love you so much and love what you have brought to our family! We still are amazed that we have "kids" now, plural, not just one, but two beautiful, smart, fun loving and precious little girls...how lucky we are! Enjoy the pics, these are of Emmy eating avocados today, yum yum!
