Growing Girl

Well, I think the title sums it up: Our girl, she is a growin'.

Emmie had her 6 month check up last week. She weighed in at 18 lbs and measures 27 inches long. She is right on track with everything. She's sitting up VERY well on her own, working on crawling, and loves to have fun.

Within the same week we had to go back to see Dr. Reigner for a thrush & croup diagnosis. Sunday morning, Emmie woke up with no voice and white junk on her tongue. She was so sad. Emmie isn't a baby who wants to be held normally but all she wanted Sunday and Monday mornings were to sit in our laps. It was sweet and sad at the same time. So, the doctor gave her liquid Nystatin to take 4 times a day for 10 days. Mimi (Sherry) had the great pleasure of keeping her Monday night for us to go to dinner. I bet she had her hands tied! But Emmie had a great time.

Other than that, everything is great here. She's getting back to normal and we're heading to the lake in the morning. We'll be there for a week, home for a week, and back to the lake for a week. Maybe we'll come back with a tan baby & mommy....doubt it! By the way....HOLY CRAP you have to take a lot of stuff with you when you go on vacation with a baby! I don't see any other vacations in our near future!

Have fun this summer!
