Me and my Daddy




Here are some pictures of me and my Daddy. We like hanging out together and taking naps. We dressed alike for the Final Four game, and it worked (thanks for the shirt Kristen!) - the Gators won! And the last picture is me in my new bathing suit from Aunt Gail that I wore to the beach, even though we didn't get out in the sun. Look how good I can stand up with Daddy's help!

Emma Lee Banner

I know, I know it took me long enough right?!? This is our beautiful baby girl, Miss Emma Lee Banner, born February 27th at 6:42 AM. And since you're probably wondering, we are calling her Emma, not EmmaLee - there's been a great deal of confusion about that - she'll probably want to kick us for it later. But anyway, isn't she just great? This was one of the first pictures taken of her in the hospital. She was eight pounds even, and 20.5 inches long. "A long drink of water" her daddy likes to call her. We just went to the doctor last week for her two month checkup and she now weighs just over twelve pounds and is 24 inches long (the 95th percentile!).
Everyone always asks us if we're getting any sleep, but she's been a complete angel from the very beginning! She typically sleeps all night and only wakes up once early in the morning around four. But over the last week, she's started sleeping until about 6:30 - can you believe it? She eats well, and overall has a pretty laid back disposition, with the exception of some fussy time in the evening. She smiles and coos at you now which is fun. And she holds her head up pretty well. Other than that, nothing too eventful to speak of yet. I'm trying to enjoy every minute of our time together since I have to back to work the 21st of this month, so I won't write much more for now, but I'll do another post with some newer pictures and that will probably be it for awhile until I'm back at work. For those of you that don't already know, we've only got dial up at home, so it's too slow to take the time to post pictures (I'm using Mom's at the moment). So take care everyone, and I'll update again in a few weeks!
