Emma’s Cake Table

Happy 1st Birthday Sweet Boy!

Today Mommy woke up sad because she had to leave you to go to work. I really wish I had the day off so I could just hang out with you all day and take you to do fun things.

We just got back from Disney so it was hard to get an extra day off, but soon I will be home for 3 weeks where we can enjoy my Spring Break together!

It’s hard to believe that you are already one! Everything about my pregnancy and your first year flew by so quickly! 🙁

My Sweet Girl! Mommy kind of misses your monthly updates, so to keep track of your growth and memories, I decided that I’m just going to write a post here and there! Since your first birthday, you are growing and learning at lightning speed! You had 0 teeth, and now you are growing 2 at…

I seriously cannot believe that in just a few days I will be a Mommy to a ONE YEAR OLD!! What is going on right now? How did time fly so fast? I made a wishlist for Emma’s birthday, to help our friends and family who kept asking me what I should get her. Most…

So last weekly update I wrote about how Emma’s pediatrician wanted me to supplement breastfeeding with either my milk (pumped in a bottle) or formula. I talked about how Emma threw up after I tried to feed her more after she was already full from breastfeeding so I gave up! I did not supplement. Instead…

Sweet Girl! This month has been my favorite so far! You have grown/matured so much, I can’t believe you’re only turning 5 months. You have become extra silly, you laugh and smile so much, it melts my heart. You found your feet and now every time Mommy is changing your diaper you stick it in…

My Boo! You and Mommy had your first “fight” this month, it was so funny! I told you NO! and you flipped out. You cried, and moved away from me. We went to Naples, and you were such a good girl! Everyone kept commenting on how well behaved you are! You loved being in the pool with…

Emma! You are ONE! I cannot believe my little baby girl is now a big girl! You are no longer a baby now, but a toddler!!! You have become the sassiest you have ever been! You like to test my patience, and push buttons to see what you can get away with. I chose the…

LOVE OF MY LIFE! Oh my goodness I still can’t believe that you’re mine!!! You are allllll MINE! You are mine to kiss, and squeeze and (gently) bite all I want! Seriously, part of why I wanted my own baby was so I could squeeze them all I wanted without looking like a weirdo squeezing…

My Baby! I cannot believe how big you are getting! Where did my little baby girl go? You learn so much every day, it’s so cute, but bittersweet, to see how much you are growing. Mommy is so excited to spend all summer at home with you, I hope we have a lot of fun…

Baby Girl! Oh my goodness you are getting crazier and cuter, and crazier every day! We fight at night about your sleeping, you wake Mommy up to play and just to cuddle, and I try to just soak it in because even though I’m tired and grumpy and just want to sleep, I know that…

Ruffles and Tutus was so kind to send Emma a BEAUTIFUL dress to wear on my maternity shoot. I was so in love with how cute she looked in her big poofy dress! I hope you enjoy the pictures of Emma wearing her pretty dress, and make sure to check out Ruffles and Tutus for adorable…

I was so excited to get Emma’s Half Birthday pictures back from our friend Amanda! This was Emma’s first studio shoot, and she was so funny! She had JUST turned 6 months old so she couldn’t really sit up that great by herself yet, it was a mission to get some good pictures, but Amanda…

Baby Girl you are 2 Months! TWO MONTHS!!! STOP IT! 🙁 Even though I’m loving how more aware you are becoming, I miss my squishy baby who just slept on me all day! And it’s also sad that time just goes by so fast, next thing I know you’ll be running around, pulling Cooper and…

Tchutchuca! You are soooooooooooo cute! I swear you are saying “Mama”! And to ME! Not anyone else, so we really really think you mean it when you say it lol. It also seems like you say “boo, boo, boob” when you want milk, haha! You are a food MANIAC! You want to eat everything, and…

My Sweet Girl is SIX! This year instead of a party we went to Disney World to celebrate – and despite some difficulties around my broken foot, we had such a great time, especially the Birthday Girl! We got to visit all 4 parks, and of course take her yearly photo in front of the…
