I have been a blogging slacker lately, but not becuase I haven't wanted to write, but just because we have been so busy this month. After our trip to Yardley, we went to Ithaca for my 5th year reunion and then to Florida to see my parent's new condo. All of these wonderful adventures have kept me from writing as much as I have wanted to. Today, however, I have plenty of energy to write becuase Emily slept for 11 hours last night. I only slept for 7 and not in a row because Andy and I from 3:30AM on, were both getting up every hour or so to make sure she was still breathing, but heck that was more sleep than I have had in a LONG time. The longest she slept before this was 8 hours and that was well over a month ago so we were both shocked this morning. I'm hoping this will be the beginning of some longer nights!
Emily has been chatting up a storm lately and laughing more as well, which is so much fun. She discovered her feet the other day, and it has been very entertaining watching her figure out a way to get them in her mouth, or try and take off her sock. She lights up when Andy and I come in the room and it melts our hearts. We both know she recognizes us, but to see the smile when she hears our voices or sees our faces is really awesome. I didn't really know what it was going to be like to be a Mom (still shocks me to think that I am), but it has been amazing. Of course we could both use some more sleep and some more time to ourselves, but we wouldn't change a thing. She is the greatest gift we have both ever received!
