She's a Blessing!!!///Cancun!

"It's my blessing day!! I look so pretty. So last Sunday, the 4th, we blessed our sweet little Emery. Corey did such a great job...it was a beautiful blessing. I had a hard time getting her in her car seat with her long beautiful dress...but we made it happen. All morning I stressed out about her havin' a major blow-out right before her big scene...but we lucked out and she was a perfect angel the whole time. What made the event even more entertaining was that right when Corey was holding her up for the congregation to get a look..she decided to twitch and her whole body jumped as Corey had to hold on for dear life! Luckily he had it all under controll...Whew! All 6 of my brothers and their families were able to make it for the occasion along with Corey's fam...it was so awesome to have everyone there supporting us. The Proud Parents!! :)

Beautiful sleeping angel....

Great Grandma Green


Great Grandpa and Grandma Rasmussen....

Afterwards we had a brunch at my mom's house in Newdale (technically our home too...since we've been mooching off of them for the last couple months....thanks mom and dad for helping us save some money!! WE SOOOO appreciate it!) I love having family get togethers...family is everything!

"I just woke up...Why are all these people starring at ME?!"


"I'm confused......"
"UH-Oh...I don't feel so good...."
"What's that?....Yep...mommy needs to change my diaper now....."


Soon after the blessing Corey left me for a trip to Cancun! :( I could've joined him, but there was no way that I could leave my baby girl....I would have been depressed the whole time...not too mention taking breaks every couple hours to pump so I could nurse her when I got home. But Corey had fun...and I'm glad...he needed the break.

Next time I am definitely goin!!!! Sorry Em...

Baby's first Christmas

Emery's first christmas...6 weeks...She was so excited for Santa she pooped herself right out....!

These are some pictures we took before christmas...we were gonna try to get a christmas card sent out...but as you can see that didn't happen :( o well. Next year we'll be a little more on top of things since I won't be learning how to take care of a new born!! :)
I love this picture. It was christmas eve morning. I went to get her and she had the cutest look on her face.. Now she's in a faze where during nap time she'll grunt and groan and make all these funny noises...so I'll go check on her and she'll be wide awake waiting for me, and as soon as I say somethin to her or pick her up she lights up with the biggest smile! She just wants me to come get her...she's so funny...little rascal knows how to get what she wants already...! We're in trouble!

Merry Christmas!!


We took her to church last Sunday for the first time. She was really good.
She loves her car seat...sometimes she'll nap in there forever!



She fell asleep before her bath....she's such an angel..

Bath Time!!

She screamed the whole time...I felt horrible! But right when she got into her warm towel she stopped instantly...she's so cute!

Emery Christine Green

So I apologize for not updating my blog for a month! Things have been a little hectic in my life since Emery arrived. She is so much fun! She makes me laugh everyday..with her facial expressions and noises. And she is getting so big! She was born November 14, and was 8 lbs 12 oz. Yeah... a little bigger than I wanted for my first baby...(ouch!) But I guess that's over now. She was 20 1/2 inches...and now she is a month old and is well over 10 lbs and is wearing her 3 month clothing already! She is growing like a weed! Being a mom is challenging, but it is so amazing and rewarding. I couldn't imagine my life without this special little addition to our eternal family....
This was after the delivery...I pushed for a straight hour before she decided to come out. I did have an epidural, however, it wore off when I started pushing...so I felt a lot!!! Ouch!! Her oxygen levels were low when she came out..she wasn't screaming or crying like most baby's. It sounded like whimpering or something. Anyways..I saw her and held her for 2 seconds before they took her to the nursery. They said she had sucked a lot of amniotic fluid into her lungs, but a couple hrs later they brought her in to nurse while they monitored her oxygen. She did great...so they gave her a bath.....that got her screamin!!!
She had quite the cone head after delivery..but its normal now..lol!

Proud daddy...(who is totally wrapped around her little finger by the way..) He doesn't have much patience when she cries though! she makes one peep and he hands her off to mommy! lol! He does help out and change a few diapers now and then...
