Emma Meet Your Friend Kelly

Michael got up with Emma at the beginning of the night, but Emma just didn’t want him to calm her down. I tried sleeping, but kept hearing Emma crying so finally around 2:30 AM I went downstairs to relieve Michael so he could get some rest. He looked like a zombie when I went downstairs. I think I came at just the right time. Emma and I talked, I fed her, and then put her down in the pack n play where she slept for about five hours. I think she just wanted her mommy.

This morning Michael’s parents came over to visit with us and Emma. They left shortly after the RotoRooter man left right before my friend Kelly and her mom got to our house. They wanted to come up here to meet Emma and to bring me and Michael dinner. It really wasn’t necessary to get us dinner, but Kelly kept insisting so I let her do it. At first, Kelly’s mom was afraid the dogs would be protective of Emma so she didn’t reach for her right away. It probably also helped that I handed Emma to her mom and the dogs were okay with them being here. Both Kelly and her mom just kept saying how beautiful Emma is and they just loved holding her. Kelly fed Emma and then Emma got the hiccups and both Kelly and her mom were laughing hysterically each time Emma hiccupped. I showed both of them Emma’s finished room and then they headed home. It was a short trip, but I’m glad they made the trip up to visit us. We will see Kelly in about two weeks for Emma’s baptism. Michael and I enjoyed the Bandanas BBQ that they brought for our dinner and it was an early night for us. Or so I thought it was going to be (Emma had other plans for our evening).
