Emma went to see the pediatrician today about her cough and sniffles. Last night was a long night and Emma didn't eat or sleep much. The doctor said Emma has a cold and an ear infection. She's taking antibiotics and should be feeling better soon.

Gracie and Abby are slowly getting adjusted to having Emma around. Abby even lets Emma pet her sometimes! Gracie is still keeping her distance but now she comes out of hiding during the day to sit in the same room with Emma.

Emma finally has enough hair that we can "mold it" in the bathtub! If you look closely, you can see her little tooth too.

Emma was eating some sweet potatoes and thought it would be funny to blow a raspberry. Looks like the joke's (literally) on her!

Happy Valentine's Day!

It's amazing how much we love our little Emma. We've loved her since the first time we saw her as a cute little "moon baby" in her first ultrasound picture, and every moment in between.

Yesterday Emma went to visit her Great Pawp at his rehab facility. She saw Great Gram, and Grandma and Grandpa Lieberg too. Emma got some really nice gifts from her grandparents and great-grandparents, like this cute sundress.

This morning we had breakfast at Bob Evans before Emma's daddy took his flight to Reno where he will be working this week. Emma got to sit in the booth like a big girl.
