I am finally taking some time to update you on how Emily is doing. She is scheduled for her 4 months shots next week. I schedule it the day she had her 2 months shot. After having to hold her down and watch her look at me like I was the most evil person in the world I decided that Eric should have the honors next time. She almost sleeps through the night. She sleeps about 5-6 hours, eats and falls right back to sleep. Eric and I have been taking turns, so in reality it has not been so bad. Eric continues to take pictures of her as much as possible. This baby will have plenty of baby pictures to look through. He even entered her in an iPod picture contest. He didn’t win, but I know he enjoyed taking them. As you can see, from many of the pictures, we enjoy reading to her. She has a mini library, thanks to the help of her aunt Margaret and cousin Amy. One side are all of her English books and another is her Bilingual section. Eric reads to her the English books, while I read to her in Spanish. Her aunt-godmother Liz has tried to read to her in Spanish, although she is still trying to perfect saying “quesadilla.”

Finally, my sister Diana was kind enough to take Emily to have her ear’s pierced. I could not bare to see so she took her to Claire’s. When I saw her for the first time I was surprised. They had pierced her ears with the wrong earrings. There was a misunderstanding between my sister and I so she picked the wrong ones. I really don’t like them so now I am waiting for her ears to heal so I can replace them. As you can see it has been super busy for the Rasch’s. We look back and ask ourselves, “just what did we do with all of our time?’
