Week 14

This week Emily started to follow a schedule, especially the bedtime routine (bath at 7ish; milk afterwards with soft lullaby; then nigh-nigh), so that she knows when to fall asleep. She is such a sweet and precious baby. Her beautiful eyes can instantly capture your heart. Her hands can do more and more things: swatting, grabbing, and bringing toys into her mouth. She is so cute when she plays with or swirls her hair with her fingers.She has very good eye sight and acute hearing. When she is full, she learned to arch her back backward to get away from the bottle. Emily's "talk" began to have rhythm. When she is hungry or sleepy, she really tries hard to communicate with her babbles and eyes. When she is anxious, she began to put her fingers into her mouth. She blows milk bubbles all the time. Emily indeed is the champion of the tummy time. She can do that for such a long time that David has to pick her up thinking that it might cause injury to her neck! You can tell that she is enjoying her tummy time by the picture we posted last week. She is a slow-eater because it often takes her several times to finish eating the 4 oz milk.

For Valentine's day, we had lunch at OnTheBorders. We love the Brisket basket there. David made a wonderful dinner: fish, chicken, and vegetable pancakes! Emily went to bed early so that we could enjoy the dinner. But before we finished reading the family Bible, she woke up again ...

Here are a few pictures we took this week:

She looks so small and petite. Her eyes are gorgeous and the pink hat is adorable!

I love the pink hat and coat! She is honestly more beautiful in person than in these pictures (and the pictures are wonderful!) It was so good seeing you the other night. Thank you again for such a wonderful meal and great conversation. We'd love to get together again soon. This time should be our turn to prepare the meal for you:-)
