Brian and Joelle

while I endeavor to write a new blog every Sunday night and add new photos…..sometimes it just doesn’t work out. Time just marches on…….

We’re at the 5 1/2 month mark now and loving it. She is a joy to be around now and quite frankly, we just can’t get enough of her. Her baths are so pleasant now…she just sits there like a little buddha. She sucks her thumb occasionally at night when she sleeps which we’re not too stoked on….but we’ll deal with that later I guess. She gets to spend more time with her cousins Tre and Zeke these days and they absolutely love her….it is a joy to watch. I wouldn’t be surprised is she tries to boss them around when there a bit older though…..even though they could just sit one her because they’re probably triple her weight. Joelle is taking advantage of emmelia’s hip brace only having to be worn at night now by dressing her up in all the adorable little outfits that we received from friends and family. This past week we introduced her to the bouncy swing, her new high-chair, and eating rice cereal from a spoon. I feel sorry for our next kid who probably isn’t going to get near the photo documentation that emmelia is getting. As far as she is concerned, Mom and Dad are the paparazzi.

Here’s the video of her first spoon feeding….
