Now that Emma is almost 6 months it is probably time that I give a little update about what our lives have been like the past 3 months.
Since my last update we have been on 3 trips - 2 to see both of our families during the holidays and 1 for our anniversary. It was so wonderful to be able to spend time with our families, and although traveling with an infant requires extra luggage, frequent stops for feeding and changing, and adjustments to sleep patterns, it was more than worth it to see so many of the people we love and for them to be able to spend time with Emma!
So, what has Emma been up to for the last few months:
*She has been sleeping through the night since about 2 months, but she has started waking up in the middle of the night again (possibly teething). Last night was the first night in several weeks that she slept for 9 hours straight and it was wonderful!
*She started rice cereal at 5 1/2 months and has loved it. We tried solids for the first time this week and she definitely was not a fan of sweet potatoes, but apples have been a hit.
*She had to see the orthopedist recently for a click in her left hip. They did an x-ray and determined that everything looked great - what a blessing!
*She has moved into 6 month sleepers and some onesies, but she still cannot wear the 6 month outfits because the pants fall off, ha!
*She loves to smile, giggle, play peek-a-boo, grab our faces, and make lots of funny noises.
She is such a sweet joy to be around and we just praise the Lord for giving us the wonderful gift of this girl!

In January Aaron and I celebrated our 3 year anniversary by taking a trip to the town of New Bern. We stayed in a beautiful hotel, ate at some great restaurants, and explored the quaint little town. I am so grateful that the Lord has been so gracious to give us 3 years together and can't wait for many more!
