2 months old today!

We're celebrating Emily's 2 month birthday at the beach today!  The Wilder's annual beach vacation is this week so we're hanging out in Emerald Isle, NC.


Our week began with Father's Day. Blaine is the best dad a little girl could ask for (my daddy ranks up there too!). He is very good with Emily and loves her so much. You can tell she really loves him too.  We had some special time as a family in bed before we had to pack up and leave for the beach. I love him so very much and my heart melts when I see him love on our little girl.

We got to have lunch with Blaine's family before leaving town for Father's Day too. Here's Emily and her Grandpa Riney!
She was a trooper on the drive to the beach but got a little overwhelmed with everyone when we got here. But we settled down and started having some fun.  My sister, Allyson, helped me give Emily a bath and get her ready for bed. This was her idea of styling her hair (which is a little curly when it's wet)! Allyson has giggled all week at Emily and it's so funny!  I mean how do you not laugh at this!?!?

We dressed her up in her new swimsuit for a little fun too...how cute is she with her sunglasses on top of her head!?!?! So stylish!

Of course we had to add the hat (and then she got upset so we gave her the paci) but we had to get a picture of the whole get up...so funny, our little doll!

My whole family has been really helpful giving us a break taking care of sweet Emily. I really appreciate the help and love them so much!
She's getting to be such a big girl. First we took out the sling in her tiny bathtub and this week we let Emily ride forward facing in her stroller. Her car seat carrier clicks into an attachment bar on the BOB stroller and she would ride backwards up until now. Very safe but very hot this time of year; everytime I take her out she feels so sweaty and hot and I feel bad. I think this way is much better and she seems to enjoy it too. 

We'll keep on having fun, life is good. :) XOXO
