what's goin on

This is what Miss Emery is doing right now as I blog, Playing in her little jumperoo.
She had her 4 moth check up last week (yes I was scheduled it two weeks late) and she is tipping the scales at 15.2 pounds and 25 inches long. Check out those thighs :) Love that sweet girl.

We have been SOOO busy! And we have had lots of company. Nana came, Andrew came, and now my parents are coming this weekend. We enjoy all the company here at Hotel Hebert :). The Hut is SUPER busy now and it's safe to say that we are exhausted! I know it will be worth it one day but geeze at this rate I'm going to look 50 by the time I'm 35. Maybe I will start saving for a face lift now.... HA HA No really...
And this is what Miss Eme has been doing:
Daddy picked out this outfit and even matched the headband. He's getting good at this girly stuff :)


Love her leg warmers

She has been soooo good at the hut
Looking at mommy


Looking at herself :)

And practicing some modeling poses!
Hope all is well with yall! LOVE!

Stay at home mom

Today I got to be a stay at home mom. Emery's sitter was sick so I had no where to bring her. And so my mom says "if you lived here (in LC) I could watch her!" Yes yes I know but we don't so I had to take off work. And let me just say I could totally stay home with her everyday. I love it and Love being around her and soaking her all in. One day, one day maybe I can... A girl can dream right?? Emery is talking all the time now. I just wish I knew what she was saying. The video above is her talking and she should have said "excuse me" at the end :)


Here she is in her room (excuse the mess on the floor) she was rolling around and I got some cute faces she made.

And finally! My dad keeps asking me "Does Eme roll all the way over Candice or just from back to front?" to which I tell him "yes Dad" but I have yet to get it on video. Well today I finally have proof for him!
Emery is such a happy baby 24/7. She does great at the crawfish hut on the weekends. I thought it may be a little adjustment for her but nope, she just goes with the flow.

I am still struggling with the decision to quit nursing. I have a lot on my plate these days with working, her, stuff for the hut, and I do most of the work around the house because Archie does not get home until 630 at night. Quitting pumping would just be one less thing for me to worry about. One less thing off my plate. I know I need to do it but I just feel guilty. And to be honest I'm scared of the pain of drying up. I am starting to resent it mainly because of the pump. I nurse in the morning, then pump before I leave for work, Pump twice during the day and then at night before bed. So that's four times on the pump everyday for around 20 minutes each time. It's just Monotonous! Your thinking I'm crazy and after reading this I know it seems like a no brainer. I just need a little more support from my teammate...... Well if you have any suggestions on the quitting process let me know!
