Cheeks!



Emily is quickly becoming known for her cheeks, which seem to have filled out a bit.  Above, you can see them in both the upright and reclined position.  Even more adorable is the place where her chins meets her body.  For most people, this is referred to as their neck.  For Emily, it is just a little crease that likes to gather sweat and spit up milk.  I am constantly trying to clean it for her, but she rarely lets me at it.

In the bottom picture, she has a little half-smile going.  She has actually started giving us big open-mouthed smiles.  They say this doesn't happen until 6 weeks, but both Chad and I are convinced that these are purposeful, directed at us, and not caused by gas.

Emily is still sleeping on about the same schedule as she had been and it seems to be working OK for all of us.  Also, she is slowly getting used to taking a bottle.  She'll only go for it if she is really hungry, and it is taking her a little while to adjust to how quickly the milk comes out, but we are definitely seeing progress.

The top photo is really cute, she sure has lots of hair! She looks so big in the photos.

I believe the smiles are demonstrated purposefully for you! (:
