Emma Begins Her Work And Softball Career

Today is another busy day with lots of new things happening for Emma. I had dressed her so cute in one of her summer dresses and we headed to my work. The whole therapy staff were having a meeting that was to get over in 15 minutes, but it kind of ended when I walked into the room with Emma. Most everyone came over to see her and commented “She’s so cute! She’s got a lot of hair and long fingers and toes.” Emma was passed around to anyone who wanted to hold her; there were a few people who just wanted to look at her from a distance. I took her around the rest of the building where she saw some of the other workers. Everyone just absolutely loved her. We ended up staying at my work until pretty close to when Michael was getting off work.

I headed over to his work, where I sat in the car to feed Emma while Michael came out to meet us. We then headed to dinner at the St. Louis Bread Company. We were trying to decide what to do for about 2 hours before Michael’s softball game. We were still trying to decide if it was too hot for Emma to be outside, but the weather was changing for the better. It was getting cloudy and breezy and his game was after the sun went down so we decided to wait to watch his game. Michael’s co-worker, Jeff, had offered his apartment for us to come stay for a little bit. Jeff didn’t want to hold Emma, but he was asking all kinds of questions about her and how she is doing.

I just LOVE her!

We headed back to Michael’s work where he plays softball and were ready to cheer on daddy. Throughout the game, which lasted less than 30 minutes, Emma and I had to move 4 times because foul balls were coming close to us. Also while we were there, Emma was getting hungry so I fed her right before we left to go home. She slept the entire way home, but her head was slumped to the side so when she moved it back upright she screamed and cried. Poor little lady was in pain, but off to bed she went.

I just can't watch anymore; dad's team was doing terrible. Maybe next week daddy will hit a home run for me, especially since it will be his birthday!
