Easter and turning 2 weeks old

Emmery's second week was very busy! She had her first doctor's appointment and hit 7 lbs.
Here are some pictures from the week.

Me right before we left for the hospital...

And with Emmery. I always think she seems so small, until I think of her being in my tummy!

We went down to Colorado Springs for Easter- it was really nice to spend time with our families. Of course Emmery got held the whole weekend, so I spent this week trying to get her back to being able to sleep without being held :-)

Curled up and resting with Grandpa Brewer.

Jamison and my dad giving cheers to Emmery with the good stuff.


With her Aunt Amanda!


And her cousins

Jamison went back to work after having a week off :-( Emmery and I got him a digital picture frame for work so that he has plenty of pictures of her.

And with Jamison back at work, Jean came up to visit Emmery (and keep me company). We took Emmery for her first walk!



Jean treated us to Old Chicagos, and Em slept the whole time!


In her spring dress and in her cradle that was made by her Great-Grandpa Malloy and has been passed around the family. She sleeps in the cradle every night and for her naps right now (as long as I can get her to go down). I tried to setup a photoshoot, but she was not having it. Here she is wailing :-( Hopefully one of these days I will get some better pictures of the beautiful cradle.

Drinking her first bottle- which meant a glass of wine for me!

Trying on her new special shoes from her Aunt Kellie, Uncle Eric, and team Jensen cousins! The shoes have her name on the bottom of one and her birthdate on the bottom of the other. They also come with a beautiful little story- "May your little footsteps gently print the ground and preordain your destiny."

My mom came up and helped out for a few days. She has so much energy! I really appreciated all of her help- she cleaned, cooked, folded laundry, washed dishes, cut out and glued all of the envelope liners for Emmery's baby announcements, and of course cuddled with Em! She also went with me to look at different daycare possibilities.

And on her 2 week birthday her cord fell off, so she got her first real bath!
