Doing what needs to be done is no fun!




Hi Everyone,

Emmett is doing great. He's cooing a lot more now and can be content to just sit and hang out with Dad (finally!) for more than 5 min. The smiling is great, even if it is at 3 am when I'm trying to convince him to go back to sleep. He figured out how to get his fists in his mouth and now that's his favorite thing to do if he's not eating. He weighs 12 lbs now, is 23 inches long (19 at birth) and is 2 1/2 months old now....time is flying.

This past week was not my favorite in the parenting department because I had to take Emmett in for his first round of immunizations last Tuesday. They gave him two shots in each leg and all the while i had to hold his legs still while he looked up at me in total betrayal. It was awful to hear that kind scream come out of your baby and by the end of it we were both crying. He has to go back for a second round in 2 months and I'm not looking forward to it at all but I know he needs them and it's for the best.

Here are some fresh pictures for you, enjoy : )
