Here are some pictures to satisfy the newly formed Emily fan club. She is helping me pick her best shots right now as I type (totally conked out on my chest). I could put her down—she sleeps fine without being held, but it’s hard to put such a snuggly little one down. Especially when you have a seven year-old running around and you realize how amazingly short this time is.
Emily is an easy baby so far. She is good at nursing, but also not as voracious as our other two—which is nice for me at nights. This may change as she wakes up more, but I remember calling Molly my little barracuda even in the hospital. Emily is typically more interested in sleeping and often makes me work to get her to eat a full feeding.
She is delightfully scrunchy, with the most exquisitely soft hair and skin. It’s funny that she was 8 lbs 8 oz—that’s our biggest baby so far—but she seems absolutely tiny to me.
Here are her greatest hits so far:
