Baptism Gown

These are some pictures I took of Emily's baptism gown. Grom made every piece, including a bonnet, hanky, shoes, socks, slip, and dress. The detail is gorgeous, even though it might be hard to see in the pcitures. Her monogram is on one side, with room for the next 2 LeJeune's initials (2??? ha!). The gown is absolutely beautiful and we were very excited to have had Grom to make it for us.

Baptism 6/21/08

Emily was baptized Saturday, June 21, 2008 at St. Gabriel's Catholic Church in McKinney, TX. The baptism was during the mass, and she behaved so well! Getting her ready before mass was another story, as Grom, Laurie and Derek had a hard time getting her beautiful baptism gown on. We want to thank our families, especially Nanny Monica and Parrin Travis for coming all the way to Texas for our special day!

First Swim!!

Last Friday, we had Monica, Travis, Tyler and Timmy, Charissa, Dustin, Hannah and Drew, Grom, Poppa Larry and Evan and Granny, Poppa James and Kaide come into town for Emily's baptism. We figured E might be confused by all the water at church, so we decided to give her a "dry run" at the neighborhood pool! She loves her baths, so we figured she'd do pretty well in the pool. Judging by that grin, she seemed to like it just fine! How about that bikini??? :)

Does this look like a sick baby to you?

Emily has a little bit of a stomach bug, but you'd never know it!

"So I was all, like, crying and stuff, and Mommy was all, like, stop that, and I was all, like, whatever..."

2 months old!

2 months old already! Emily went to the pediatrician this morning for her 2 month checkup. She is now 11 lbs, 8 oz (50th percentile) and 21 inches long(5th percentile), so obviously, she's got Laurie's genes for height! She's a lot more awake, taking shorter naps and thankfully sleeping for longer stretches at night. Smiles are coming more often, which is making her Mommy and Daddy melt!

Big Texas Hair

These were taken after a walk on a more humid day than usual.

Don't hate me for being beautiful!

More pics around the house

Hi everybody! Not too much going on these days! Had a few days of crying/screaming jags in the evenings. We were afraid Emily had colic, but her pediatrician wanted to try a new rice-based formula and Zantac to see if it was silent reflux, and so far, she has been much more content. We get smiles sometimes and we are kicking our feet a bunch when we're excited. Can't wait until we have her laughing and smiling all the time!
