So last night I decided to go to a Ladies Night Out through a group--Gwinnett Area Mommies--that I belong to. I was a little worried about how E would do with daddy putting her to bed but she ended up doing great! In fact, I got this short clip from Kevin at about 9pm! Really put my mind at ease and our group ended up winning first place in Trivia that night!

Five Months Old Today!!!
I went to see Megan and her new baby Jaiden this weekend and as I was holding her new baby (got to feed her while I was there!! YAY!) I kept thinking how fast my little girl is growing up. Seems like just yesterday I was at the hospital holding her for the first time. Now I know what all the mommies say about "don't blink."
Megan's baby girl--Jaiden Jeanne was born on July 11th. Mother and baby are doing great and are heading home today. Emery can't wait to meet her newest playmate! Also, another friend, Sky, had her baby girl Violet on July 5th. And one more friend, Marie is due to give birth to a boy--Colten--in August. Guess this is the year for babies!! We are all looking forward to playdates soon.

July 4th...
Turned out to be an interesting holiday! We grilled out during the day with my mom--nana and grandpa and grandma Orza and even celebrated the day with a special cookie cake. Kevin and I decided to try to go to a church picnic that night for the fireworks but ended up they weren't scheduled until the following day! :( So we made a mad scramble to try and find a park at the lake to watch the fireworks from the beach at Lake Lanier Islands. We found a park, unloaded our chairs and Emery and preceded down to the beach. We got a great spot and waited. And waited...and waited. Nothing. It was dark by now and no fireworks. The bugs were starting to come out and Emme was just getting plain tired by now. So....unfortunately we didn't get to see any and by the time we hit home Emery was throwing a fit!!! Guess she did not want to be out past her bedtime! Oh well....there is always next year and I know she will enjoy it much more then!

Ok, so to give an update on Emery news....
Drum roll please....Dom, dah, dah, dom!!
She is now officially in her own bed. Mind you it is in the co-sleeper which is still in our bedroom but it is definately a big step!! She is actually sleeping much better these days and loves to sprawl out. She usually ends up doing a 180 with her head at the end of the bed! The next big step will be to officially move her to her crib but that won't be for a little while yet since its upstairs in the nursery. For the time being this is working out great! :)
Seems also that she has been a bit fussier lately and not eating as well as before. She is drooling A LOT too so we think she may already be teething. I don't see anything in there yet but from what I hear she could have that going on for awhile till the teeth finally come in. I have switched her back to her old formula--Similac Advance--and she also still nurses in the evenings and mornings. The other reason could be reflux. She doesn't spit up too often so we aren't sure really. I guess we will just keep an eye out on it.
Dr. update: She got her Rotavirus (liquid) and PC vaccine on the June 26th. Her next appt. will be in August for her 6 month checkup. We are looking to change Dr.'s at the time. I am currently interviewing a few now! :)
