Emrick is a quarter of a year old today! (That’s three months! It’s also 13 weeks!)<\/p>\n

In some ways, it is hard to imagine that he is already three months old and that we didn’t just<\/em> bring him home from the hospital. But in other ways, it is hard to imagine that he was ever not here… <\/em>that he hasn’t always been with us… that we haven’t always had a crib in our bedroom and spit-up-soaked baby bibs strewn across the carpet. I can only guess what it will feel like in another .75 years when Emrick is a full, 1.0 year old!<\/p>\n

When we look back at pictures from his first few weeks of life, we are amazed at how much he has changed in such a short time. We brought him home on September 19, when he was still a tiny, jaundiced little thing. His weight had dropped to less than six and a half pounds, and his bilirubin levels were rising. Despite that fragility, our favorite picture of Emrick is STILL the one we took that same night that we brought him home. And we cannot help but giggle when we look at it:<\/p>\n

Isn’t that picture kind of hilarious? Well, Marcus and I think so. His head and feet look SO huge, and his eyes look crazy! But look at our Pookie Bear now:<\/p>\n

Today Emrick weighs about 12.5 pounds and is about 22.5 inches… He is made of\u00a0100% pookiness.<\/p>\n

What a grin!<\/p>\n

Happy Three Month Birthday, Emrick!<\/p>\n
