Emotion Commotion!

Happy/Stressful-We blessed Emi on August 1st. I'm so happy that I am married to a worthy priesthood holder and that I have the gospel in my life! He gave a beautiful blessing. However, having close to 100 people at my house afterwards-Way stressful! Not saying I don't appreciate everyone who came out to support us, cause I do! Thanks everyone! :)




Sad-My sister and her cute little family went back to VA after spending about 6 weeks in good ol Utah :( I just can't help it, every time I have to part ways with her I cry! Although we did have a great time while they were here. We will miss them SO much!


Happy-I don't think I ever mentioned this on here but in the spring my grandpa was diagnosed with cancer. He has had some pretty rough stretches. I had not been really worried until his third round of chemo when he seemed really weak. It was the first time I thought cancer might take him. Well, just a little over a week ago he found out that he is in remission!!! He has been so positive the whole time which makes me proud to call him mine! Love you grandpa!!


Excited/Sad/Anxious-My very last semester starts on Monday. I'm so excited because well...it's my last semester and then I graduate! Sad for two reasons: one because it's my last semester. two because I have to leave my little Emi bug while I do my practicum. This is not an easy thing for me at all. She has only been watched once by someone besides Koby and I and that was hard for me. I'm a little anxious for this semester because of leaving Emi and because of trying to care for her and get homework done. It's going to be a challenge and I'm not sure I'm ready for it yet.

Anxious/Sad-Emi had her 2 month check up! She is doing great!! This was her first round of vaccines. Oh, you have no idea how anxious I was. It was almost at if I was getting the shot and not Emi. When they gave her the shot she did just fine, but I wanted to cry my eyes out! The Dr said that she is amazed at how alert and awake she is. She has been an alert baby since birth so I guess I'm just use to it. Emi is such a happy baby, especially in the mornings. Which is pretty surprising considering that her parents are far from being morning people. She is sleeping well at nights, but naps are hard. She naps the best and longest when someone is holding her. Unfortunately I can't hold her all day long. Sometimes she'll sleep in her swing but that is only when she decides she wants to. Anyway, here are her stats:
Weight-11 lbs 60th percentile
Height- 22 3/4 in 75th percentile
Head circumference- 15 1/4 in 75 percentile

Her first big smile caught on camera


Her smile is so big her eyes are squinty!
