Looking Ahead.

I am terrible at writing this month.
It has been crazy.
david is working basically fulltime now and with me gone for 10 hours a day, its just crazy.
I work about 10 hours a day and then come home and immediately feed Emmalee. Then its time to make dinner (for me or both of us depending on the night), Emma usually wants to eat when I am and the I just want to snuggle since she already nodding off to bed.
If dave is working, I pretty much walk in the door at 4:30 and he's out the door by 4:35. But we're making it work. When we have the time off togetehr, we basically do everything together, even if its just laundry.

Its hard to write beacuse I have to give up that time if Im going to. Tomorrows a short day at work and I have all of Friday off and then Kenny Chesney on Saturday! Which I'll be stuck in the beginnnings of a hurricane but as long as I dont get sick from it, were good! Once again, mom will be watching Emmalee (isnt she awesome?!?) and Im excited. We wanted to sell our seats to help our finances but since I lost the tickets when we moved in february, they have new copies sitting at will call so I have to go up regardless. Might as well stay if were going to go all the way up. :)
Im pretty sure if we had sold them mom still would have watched her and made us go away for the day. :)

And since Im looking forwrad to things lets look at the next few months..

One month from today: we'll be on our first family vacation in York ME celebrating our friend Phoenix's wedding.  Mom and the girls are coming up with us to watch Emma while we are at the ceremony and reception.

Two months from today: we will be getting ready for Emmalee's first Halloween and yes, we are considering a costume for her already! Our friend is planning on having a Halloween party for the kids before trick or treating and we are so excited to go!

Three months from today: is Thanksgiving! Its one of my favorite holidays and seriously my favorite meal. Its always a big ordeal at my Nannies and I am so excited for another "first" with Emmalee.

Four months from today: is Christmas Eve! My daughter will be 6 months old and we will have our first christmas as a family. It honestly fills me with this wierd warm feeling regardless of who cliche it sounds. Im just so in love with my family and cant wiat to celebrate.

Im hoping I get to write a bit more before all these events but with my crazy work schedule, Emmalee's amazing ability to distract me entirely and the fact that I go to bed when Emmalee does at night.... Im not so sure.

Ill keep you updated as we start to finish up the year. <3

Day 1.

Today was the first day Dave and I had to do the kiss, swap and run. :/
I got home from work at 4:25 and he had to leave the house at 4:30.  We literally had just enough time to kiss each other, ask how the day was, find out when the last time Emmalee ate was and he was out the door.  Ive had to go to bed without him twice now and oh man does it suck BUT by doing this we keep Emmalee with us and arent going to work just to pay a babysitter.

In other news, im on the search for the really cute crochet baby hats that I can put her flowers/bows on.  Shell need them as the weather gets colder... :)
Mayb they'll go onto her Christmas wishlist... its coming..

Quick Update.

Emmalee had her 2 month check up today and my little girl is now 11 lbs 15.5 oz and 24 inches long!! Yikes! Little girl is getting so big!

And I know I say Im super lucky with Emmalee, because seriously, she slike the greatest baby ever but today proved it.  She had her 3 month vac's today so 2 shots and a drink.  She smiled and giggled as she had the drink. Did her fake pouty face for the first shot but then SCREAMED for the second one (the nurse said it would sting more).  I put her in my arms and she immediately stopped crying.  Fell asleep in my arms!! Seriously, what baby takes a nap after shots?? Im so in love with her.  :)

And tonight, when Dave went to his first night of work (!!!!!!!) Emmalee and I went to dinner with Kristen! She didnt do wonderful, fussed a bit while I was trying to eat but other than that, but i did get to eat half my meal and all of my dessert! :)

It was a really great day and tomorrow will be even better because Angelina is coming over!!!! Yeyy!!
