long hiatus

I am sure that nobody in still reading this blog, especially since Damon showed me up with his fancy, longer length, more descriptive, nicely written blog. But whateves. I know I write stuff and don't even re-read it for typos or spelling or grammatical errors. That is how I roll. But I just thought I'd give me little two cents on how life is going with little Emmett.

My days are full of Emmett. The only time when he's not on me, or at least in the same room as me, is when Damon takes him to the couch for sleep. For some reason, Emmett is able to sleep much longer periods on the couch with dad than when I'm around. I must be like an oven full of freshly baked cookies to him. Anyhow, there have been a couple of 5+ hour nights between feedings, which have been nice for me. I am not able to really nap with him during the day (which is a big surprise, as I am a seasoned napper pre-Emmett). But all in all, I'm not feeling too sleep deprived. I have my moments in the afternoons, but I'm feeling pretty good.

Yesterday, Emmett smiled at me for the first time. He smiles in his sleep all of the time, but on this one, he was wide awake. It was an especially sweet moment because we were sitting on the couch and I had just read an upsetting email and was feeling pretty blue. I started to tell Emmett about it, and he just looked up at me with a huge grin. He instantly made me feel 1000% better. What a great little guy.

Okay, that is all I have in me. Hopefully I can start to update more regularly. Let me know if you are still reading this. It might motivate me...
