A little about Emma

Emma is now 5 months and amazes me everyday. From day one I could see her personality and how it was going to be so different from Mackenzie. I have had to constantly pray that God would give me strength to get through the first months of her life. I found that I was not enjoying her baby stage and I was wishing it away. I think it has helped bring out a new more loving mommy. Emma has needed that cuddly I'm gonna hold you for hours kind of a mom. I learned quickly that I wasn't good at that but prayed that God would help me to enjoy those moments with her more. She dealt with a lot of stomach problems and poor thing cried a lot in the evenings because of it. At her 4 month check up I talked with the Dr about it and she told me to start feeding her food. Since then I have seen a major difference in her. She is sleeping more (slept through the night for the first time last night =)), she is no longer having stomach pains and she is spitting up less. She laughs a lot and bring a smile to my face every time I look at her. She is now rolling over from back to stomach and stomach to back. She is using her hands to grab at things. If you lay her down she will go straight for her feet. They are her favorite toys =). I love watching her and seeing her develop in her own way just like Mackenzie has.
