Emily

I can’t believe that she is already over a week old! And it is amazing how much they change – you can see a little bit of change each day! She had her first doctor appt. on Monday and everything looked great except for her weight. She was down to 6lb 15oz which the dr. said was a little smaller than she wanted her to be. So, we had to take her back in on Thursday to make sure she was gaining weight and not still losing. She was up to 7lb 7oz so we definitely know that she is gaining! She had just chugged a 2oz bottle right before the appt. so she might not really weigh quite that much, but it was still good news! And we can see that she is filling out a little. She is still so tiny and her legs are like little bird legs – skinny and wrinkly – but oh, so cute!!
It is funny how we still thought of Nathan as our baby and he still seemed little to us until we had Emily. When we brought her home, all of a sudden Nathan looks so big and so grown up!! He seems gigantic compared to her and so grown up! It is cute how gentle he is with her! He won’t even make contact with her when he kisses her because he is scared of hurting her, I guess. He gets really close and closes his eyes and makes a kissing sound but doesn’t actually kiss her! It’s pretty funny!
My mom and sister are leaving today so it is a sad day for us! It has been so wonderful to have them here and they have been so helpful! They have been so great with the boys – entertaining them and taking them out to do things. They have loved every minute! I hate the fact that our parents aren’t close enough to see our kids more often and to see little Emmy Jane grow and change. It is the hardest part about living away!! We hope that they come back soon and often!!!
I have been taking lots of photos of Emily – not wanting to miss out on the chance to take pictures while she is still in this tiny newborn stage. I know that it goes so quickly and I want to capture her just as she is right now – so fresh and new and tiny!! Here are a few… more to come.

Emily_with_toys_web

This last one is evidence that Emmy Jane has been very graciously welcomed into the family. She was asleep in her swing and Nathan thought that she needed a few toys so he shared some of his with her! How sweet! I especially like the fact that he gave her the little basketball. Is there any question that they are going to want her to be just one of them – playing ball and doing the things they do?? I’m not sure she has a chance in this house full of boys!!

    she is such a little cutie! and such tiny little feet!
    isn’t it funny how our kids seem so small to us … until we see them next to someone smaller. my daycare “baby” (not technically the baby really) was just that … our baby. then we got a newborn … and all of the sudden my “baby” seemed so huge. lol!

    My son is 3 months old and he also lost weight after his birth. He was actually 7 lb 5 oz when he was born, but lost down to 6 lbs. It took him a month to get back to his birth weight, but he is finally packing on some pounds and filling out. My daughter also lost weight at that age, but not nearly as much as my son. She’s 3 yrs old now and an average weight, so I try not to worry about it too much – but sometimes it’s hard!

    One other issue is that if you are in a problem where you would not have a co-signer then you may really want to try to exhaust all of your financial aid options. You will find many grants and other free college funding that will give you money to assist with institution expenses. Many thanks for the post.

    I have noticed that over the course of making a relationship with real estate homeowners, you’ll be able to get them to understand that, in most real estate financial transaction, a percentage is paid. In the long run, FSBO sellers really don’t “save” the fee. Rather, they struggle to earn the commission simply by doing a good agent’s task. In this, they commit their money along with time to execute, as best they might, the jobs of an broker. Those duties include displaying the home by way of marketing, offering the home to all buyers, building a sense of buyer desperation in order to induce an offer, arranging home inspections, controlling qualification check ups with the loan company, supervising repairs, and aiding the closing of the deal.

    My experience working for Consumer Genius was extremely disappointing. Although I completed all my job responsibilities and worked hard, I haven’t received my salary for four months. Despite trying to contact the company several times, I haven’t received a response or any explanation for the delay. It’s not only unethical but also illegal to withhold employees’ salaries. This conduct reflects poorly on the company’s professionalism and respect towards their workforce. I strongly advise anyone against working for this company or considering any business dealings until they show a genuine commitment to treating their employees with respect and paying their salaries on time.

    One more thing. I believe that there are numerous travel insurance sites of reliable companies that allow you enter your holiday details and get you the rates. You can also purchase the international travel insurance policy on the web by using your credit card. All you need to do is always to enter all your travel specifics and you can understand the plans side-by-side. Just find the program that suits your financial budget and needs and after that use your bank credit card to buy it. Travel insurance on the web is a good way to take a look for a respected company to get international travel cover. Thanks for revealing your ideas.

    I believe that avoiding processed foods could be the first step in order to lose weight. They will taste good, but prepared foods currently have very little vitamins and minerals, making you feed on more in order to have enough strength to get with the day. Should you be constantly feeding on these foods, moving over to grain and other complex carbohydrates will let you have more electricity while consuming less. Interesting blog post.

    I’ve noticed that credit score improvement activity really needs to be conducted with techniques. If not, you might find yourself endangering your ranking. In order to succeed in fixing your credit rating you have to see to it that from this second you pay all of your monthly fees promptly in advance of their booked date. It really is significant because by not necessarily accomplishing that, all other actions that you will choose to adopt to improve your credit rank will not be useful.

    One thing is that if you are searching for a student loan you may find that you will want a cosigner. There are many cases where this is correct because you could find that you do not have a past credit history so the loan company will require you have someone cosign the loan for you.
