miss emma kathryn.

On August 26th we welcomed our daughter, Emma Kathryn, into this world at 6lb 10oz and 20" long (pretty good size for being a month early!).  Words honestly cannot describe the love and overall feeling of blessing for our little miracle baby.  After everything that happened with Devan, it is so surreal to actually go through a pregnancy and have this perfect baby-love to swoon over.  We are so thankful to God for this amazing blessing!  She is such a good baby, I am still pinching myself.  Not that Logan was a difficult baby by any means, but I think with him being our first child and me being a new Mom it was just hard to traverse the unknown.  I had trouble breastfeeding him and he was what we call a "happy puker" not missing a feed without lots of throwing up (my best friends husband endearingly nicknamed him "vomit-tron").  Overall it was just slightly stressful for this OCD planner to understand that life doesn't always go according to plan.  In hindsight, I'm sure this was God's way of telling me to let go and just go with the flow.  So this little lady is honestly a breeze.  She breastfeeds like a champ, hardly cries and is a great sleeper.  I understand now that every child is different with their own temperament and personality.  Logan is such a good big brother!  He is so sweet with her, giving her a kiss first thing when walking in the door and constantly asking to hold her and love on her.  We are so in love with our newest addition to the family and are enjoying our new family of four status.
