Thats It- I Have the Cutest Baby



Hey- I've got important news! I think I have the cutest baby on the planet, I am not being biast or anything:) She is so sweet and happy all of the time. I am so blessed and lucky to have her! So, I went on my Bachelorette party last weekend. This is a picture of me and the girls, Gene and Megan! We had a blast, just hung out on the beach and went out at night!!! Meanwhile, Emmalyn stayed with Gramie and Grandaddy. I dropped her off on Friday and had a mini panic attack and thought of her all weekend. I just couldn't believe that I could go out at night without having spit up on my dress or a bedtime to worry about. We both had such a good time too. I think that it is important to have that quality time apart even though it is so hard. Oh, and the boys had a great time too!

She did get her pictures taken while I was gone by Alisha Williams photography. They are so cute and sweet, I just wanted to eat her up in them. She is growing so fast! She turned four months old this week. Hard to believe; seems I just had her yesterday. Wilkins and I decided to celebrate by letting her try new things this weekend. Today she had her first taste of food other than formula. First, we tried peaches and her face turned completely sour. We realized that she wasn't a fan at all after she cried for 30 minutes. I called mom and she suggested Bananas. Emmy loved them and ate the entire container. It was so amazing watching her experience something new.
After she ate everything we went and bought one of those huge family pools where 8 people can fit. We put her super cute bathing suit on and tons of sunscreen (way too hot this summer). She absolutley loved swimming around in her floaty. She would push off the bottom of the pool and laugh! It was so adorable!!! I think she has found her new favorite thing other than bath time at night! However, I think all of the excitement of new things for the day wore on her as she passed out of exhaustion in the pool. So I woke her up and she gave me that sleepy smile, changed her into dry clothes and she took a four hour nap. Which gave Wilkins and I time to spend together cooking out and swimming in the pool because we hadn't spent anytime together due to his family coming into town for Grant's soccer game. Which was fun while they were here too but its nice having time for just the two of us since it is so rare and precious!!! Had the best weekend!





Emmalyn goes to the doctor Friday and I am so excited to see how big she has actually grown in two months. After her appointment, E and I are heading to Mobile because we have Lindsey's shower Saturday morning. Can't wait to see everyone. It has been a long time and I love every opportunity to show my baby off:) I hope everyone is doing well. Love you all!
