So Far, So Good

Today Emma is 2 months old! She's very good natured and easy going, and we LOVE having her around. She's pretty much an angel baby! She slept through the night for the first time ( 9 hours!) the night she turned 6 weeks old. She doesn't always last 9 hours, but it's at least 6 or 7 hours. But then she'll eat and go back to sleep for a couple hours longer. She's so considerate!
She's also growing like a weed! The first couple of 0-3 month-size outfits have been packed away because they're too small. This dress is a 3 month outfit, and I think today is the last day she gets to wear it. It's sad to me to watch such adorable clothes get packed away, but I'm excited to break out the next size up of equally adorable clothes!
Emma loves visiting Grandma and Grandpa. I don't think they mind much either. Especially because they can hand her back when she has a dirty diaper! Their house is very calm, and Grandma can always get a smile or two from her newest fan!

I finally caught a couple of good smiles on camera today. When we go in to her room to get her up each morning, she greets us with a huge grin--the kind that uses her whole body. I've thought about taking a camera in with me to get her up, but I haven't done it yet. So today she obliged me with a couple of whole-body smiles as I was taking a few pictures to document her 2 month day!

How can you help but smile back? We love our little Emma and are grateful to her birthmom for helping our Heavenly Father bring her to our family.
