Time is flying by so quickly. Can you believe that Marcella is now 9 weeks old? She is having longer awake times and is starting to show her personality. Her favorite times of the day are waking up after a long nap and smiling happily at me - very contented. Sometimes she thinks I am so funny that she giggles. She also loves bath times in the evening. I've never seen a baby so excited to be in the water and splash around. She even tries to catch the water in her mouth and drink it??!!! A good night for us is Marcella sleeping 7-8 hours. If she does awaken during the night, she has learned how to suck on her hand. This pacifies her enough to put herself back to sleep. In the evening, she loves to ride in her stroller as we walk around town. Thursday nights, there is always a concert on the riverwalk, and she enjoys meeting new people and listening to the music. And, let's not forget her long naps. What baby doesn't like to sleep? It's during this time that she is growing bigger! Some of her 0-3 month clothes are starting to feel snug.

Ella looks so healthy! That's a ton of sleep at her age so you guys should be feeling great. Nice to hear you're out and about, taking in the scenery and town events.
I hear a girls' night out is taking place... have a great time!
Tyler, I'm still on house rest for a week or more so if you're by here on business or lunch, feel free to swing by or call.

Hello Emrick family,
So glad to see that little Ella Grace is doing well and looking so beautiful. What fun to see the way God has had His hand on Ella over the past 9 weeks. He is our sustainer, our very means of life; He is our heartbeat that continues when we grow weak and weary. This is a wonderful blog and through I have truly been blessed, encouraged, and even more enthralled with the healing power of our Lord.
Thank you and Mungu akubariki
