    My sweet and precious Emma Kate, Today you are 5 months old.  I’ve known this day was coming, but it just doesn’t seem possible. I look at you and I can’t believe it.  That sweet tiny baby has morphed into a bundle of fun, with a  big grin and a bit of a mischievous nature… Read more

  • 8 years ago yesterday

    On Monday night at about 9:30, J-Dub says something to me from across the living room.  Since my ears aren’t exactly what they used to be, I repeat back to him, “Oh crap, you have to get groceries tomorrow???” He repeats himself.  This time much louder and stressing every syllable as a vein pops out… Read more

    Dearest Emma Kate, Happy 4 month birthday baby!! Oh my gosh, you are so fun!  Here lately, it seems like everyday you are learning new things. You started out this month rolling over for Janelle, your babysitter.  You did it three times in a row, from your belly (which you have learned to accept a… Read more

  • Mother’s Day #1

    I got a new camera lens for Mother’s Day along with a salad spinner ( my request) and a bouquet of flowers. I spent the car trip home from Lubbock playing with my new lens, capturing images of J-Dub driving, EK sleeping, Ashy posing, and maybe an accidental shot of the dials on the dashboard.… Read more

  • Tummy Time

    At last she’s tolerating her tummy time. Finally. Today she almost rolled over.  Almost. She just doesn’t know what to do with that one arm. It keeps getting in the way. I don’t mind. I kinda like looking at her like this anyway. Read more

    My Dearest, Darling Emma Kate, You’re growing up much too quickly.  You’re no longer a tiny little baby but a whooping 12 pound 6 ounce three-month old. I’ve had to put away your little newborn sized clothes, and it nearly broke my heart.  I can’t believe how tiny you used to be.   You’ve almost… Read more

  • I feel like whining

    T minus 10 hours before the clock tolls April 13th. The day I dread. The day I must return to work and leave my baby with a sitter. The diaper bag is packed with everything possibly needed from a change of clothes to a snot sucker. The bottles of pumped breast milk are made with… Read more

  • A Better World

    I  think I’m officially a mommy blogger, as all my posts of late center around my baby. But how can you blame me?  She has yet to lose that new baby smell as my husband jokingly says. She is my obsession. She will always be my obsession. She is sleeping in my arms as I… Read more

  • 2 months

    My dear Emma Kate, You are two months old already!  Time is zipping past.  I can’t hardly stand it.  I’m cherishing every day I have with you.   The biggest piece of advice I get from other moms is to not blink and take lots of pictures because you’ll be grown before I know it.… Read more

  • Shots.

    In two short days, my baby girl has to get her 2 month shots. Oh, how I dread it.  To the very core. She’s oblivious.  She doesn’t know what is up ahead.  But I do. She is content and happy, living in her little 2 month world.  Trusting her mama and daddy to take care… Read more
