I am always to late to post about Eme's "month-versaries", but this month I'm not!! Happy 8 months baby!!
Eme has been such a blessing in our lives. She is such a well mannered baby whom you will rarely find without a smile on her face...
However, the other week we were cheering for REAL and the UTES, and she was so upset about it. I could not figure out why she was so bothered by it. I kept thinking that she was in a stage in her life where she got the stranger danger/ mama's girl, and was having a hard time with it. I LOVE my baby girl, but I don't want her to be a mama's girl. lol. So everytime somone new would come around, she would cling to me and be all whiney. I thought it would be funny to show them how whiney she had become that week, and say, "WOOHOO! Go REAL!!" and poor little Eme would cry and cry. How funny, right! WRONG! That night night I noticed she was running a fever, but when I took her temperature, it was only like 98*. So that morning I called to Dr. and took her in for a checkup/shots. We go there and she would not let go of me. She was screaming like it was nobody's business and having a really hard time with it. We got her measured and weighed (14#) and then it was time for the temperature. She was NOT having it. Well she had a temperature of 102* and a double ear infection!! WOW, if that doesn't make you feel like a failure of a mom, I don't know what will. I mean, is it really necessary to cheer and cheer and make her cry because her mom thinks is crazy! NO! lol. Poor baby. I felt like crap and took the rest of the day and the next day off to be with her. I love that Eme loves to be with me (until she gets to nurse and then could care less where I go)
Anyway, she is such a big girl and learning new things all the time. She waves bye-bye, gives "uma's"-kisses, and loves to give high fives! Although she doesn't really care to roll over, crawl, or get mobile in anyway (thankful for that) she loves to stand and pull herself up on things. She gets on all fours and then gets mad cuz she doesn't know what the heck to do from there. Silly girl. I just want to say thank you Eme for chosing me to be your crazy mom. I love you so much and can't wait to see what this next month brings...

8 months!! They get big too fast! Sorry about the ear infections. I think that Brice might have one right now. She says, "Owie" and points to her ears and has a fever. I hope not, but if it doesn't pass by tomorrow we will be going to the dr.!! We love Eme she is so cute...we can't wait for her to get bigger so she can run around with Brice.
What a cutie! Can't wait to see her on Saturday, along with all the other babies that have grown so much since July :)
OOOOH, poor kiddo! I can't believe she's 8 months already. I was glad to see you weren't too disappointed that she's not that mobile yet...Relish it while you can! She's such a little cutie!
Gosh, you're a terrible mom!! .... yeah right, remember Bethany's 9 month appt? similar scenerio with the double ear infection. LOL So, if you're bad, than, I'm right there with ya :) We love Eme and we love you guys. She is such a little cutie :)I love the picture below of her looking out the window, too.
Gosh you deserve Mother of the Year! lol You are a great mom and she is so stinkin cute. Dinner was way fun, have to do it again soon. Any Hummers at work lately?
I just wanted to say that one time my mom left me alone for so long. I thought I was in charge. Anywho, are you trying to give Emi away as a food order? Sweet Sweet baby meat.
Don't worry too much about the ear thing...sometimes it is really hard to know just what the problem is if they can't tell you exactly what it is...eventually you figure them out but it all takes time....you'll get it by the time she grows up! LOL :)
She is such a cutie. Wish I would have been around to do dinner in Utah.
Oh my gosh, she is so beautiful. I really need to see her in person. Your story is hilarious and I can totally picture you cheering on while her poor little ear drums are about to burst. Sounds like something I would do. At least you took her to the doctor, I let Logans ear drum rupture.....geez. I miss you and Tina but what else is new about my slacker ways???? Tell Eme happy 8monthaverserie from Raeg and Ellsters.
Love you both!
