Oh sweet baby girl, where have the past six weeks gone? I cannot believe that this time six weeks ago I had just given birth to you. It seems like it happened yesterday, yet at the same time it feels like a lifetime ago. The past six weeks have been filled with so much joy, you are such a sweet happy baby. I have loved each moment that I have spent getting to know you.
Loves: The moby wrap, cuddling, fleecy pajamas, bath time without the sling (like a big girl!), playing on her play mat,
Eating: Still going strong. Same as the five week update.
Sleeping: I almost feel as if I'm going to jinx this by typing it....BUT, someone has slept through the night the past TWO NIGHTS!!! On Saturday night she slept for just under SEVEN hours. It was heavenly. She also went right back to sleep after eating for another three hours!!! So the lucky hubster got TEN hours of sleep that night!!! Last night she slept from 12:30am-6:30am. I was so excited when I heard her and looked at the clock to see that she had made it through another night! I believe I scooped her up out of the bassinet saying, "YAY You did it!!! Mommy is SO PROUD of you!" I know for a fact she thinks I'm crazy already ;-) She has also been taking one nap a day in her crib. It's usually between 45min-2 hours. We've been on the go in the evenings so she's been sleeping in her carrier.
Clothes: Newborn and some 0-3 month
Fun Facts: Well I don't know how "fun" this is but Emma Claire had her first episode of projectile vomit. To quote the Hubster, "That was something like from the exorcist...all we needed was her head to spin around." HA. I'm not even joking. And the best part is she was propped up in my lap and I was talking to her so of course it went ALL. OVER. ME. When she was finished (it took her three times) the Hubster and I just looked at each other and started laughing, we were in shock. I had no clue that that much vomit could come out of such a tiny little person!
Mommy Moments: Well aside from the vomit situation I would say that sleeping for more than three hours was great! I was literally SO proud of her this morning. I just hope that this trend continues!
Firsts: First time to sleep almost seven hours, first full nap in crib, first projectile vomit, first time at a Mexican restaurant (sadly they are few and far between up here), she has started grabbing my hair, first laugh (more of a giggle but I caught it on tape!!!)
Picture Perfect
This little girl brightens my day, I just don't know what I did without her! I am so lucky to be her Mommy!

she is just the cutest! Happy 6 weeks Miss Emma Claire
Be glad it was only vomit. Let's put it this way....one day after an unforeseen event, I promptly changed the direction the changing table was facing so as to NOT be facing the curtains and very expensive (what were we thinking) glider and ottoman. It was not good. Not good all.
And I can picture a man saying that exorcist comment. Haha.
She is continuing to highlight my screen with all her preciousness. :)
You are looking great, btw...even in jeans and tshirt. ;)
aw i swear she is too cute.
wow projectile throw up. huh so not fun. i remember when my baby cousin did that when i was like 8 and i still remember it very vividly..i mean who can forget about projectile throw up. lol
little miss emma claire is quite photogenic, also.
She is so cute! The story reminded me of the vomiting scenes from Four Christmases! :)
Darling! She is looking more alert!
I SO remember those projectile vomit days. Grayson had horrid reflux & spit up ALL the time. I feel like I probably smelled like baby vom for the first 4 months of his life. It is ridiculous how much stuff can come out of a tiny baby!!
SOOOO cute!!!
