2 months old

Today Emmy is 2 months old!!!  I have decided that I am going to make a list of the top 5 things that these past 2 months have shown me that I can't live without.

1)  My Husband, Ryne

OK so as cliche as it sounds it is so very true!  I know I couldn't have gotten through these past two months as a new mommy without my loving husband.  He has been there for me in more ways then I could ever imagine.  I tell him that the month of April really put our wedding vows to the test expecially the ones that stated "in sickness and health".  I am really lucky to have him because not every man would do what he does.  He has been there for me when I need a good laugh or a hug.  And I can never thank him enough.  He is the man of my dreams and I am lucky to have him.


2)  THE BOPPY:  This wonderful pillow is what helped us get our little Emmy to sleep when she wouldn't lay on her back for the first 6 weeks of her life.  Without this magical pillow we would have had many more sleepless nights.






3)  Playmat:  Emmy loves her Jungle themed play mat.  She loves watching the lights and listening to the music.  When she is on it I can get ANYTHING done, while in the same area as her of course.  She kicks her legs like crazy and talks to the animals.  I love it and every mother should have one!





4) Snap and Go Stroller:  This is probably the best invention I have EVER seen!  Under the advice of my cousin Melissa I registered for this stroller and it has been great!  I love how compact it is and that we just pop the car seat in and out of it.  This stroller goes everywhere with us.  I will be sad when we can't use it anymore. 






5)  Pack and Play:  Emmy would NOT sleep in her crib so we had to try so many things to try and get her to sleep.  We even tried her cradle that I had slept in as a baby and that didn't work.  So on a whim I decided to set up the PackNPlay in our bedroom and we never looked back.  She loves sleeping on the elevated part of the PNP and I love being able to roll over and see her at night.  We have all been there and roll over to make sure our precious angel is still breathing (it's a mom thing).  I am going to be really sad when she sleeps in her own room :-(
