TWO nieces "Coming Soon"!!!!!!

We are proud to announce that Jeremy and I have 2 nieces "Coming This Fall".

Diana and Jason told us Christmas Eve that they were pregnant. Then they just found out yesterday that they are pregnant with another little girl, Mallory. They are due August 9, 2009.

When my sister was here at the end of February, she also told us that her and Chad were expecting another little girl also (her name will be revealed at her birth)! They are due September 6th, 2009.

Here they are with Emmie. It won't be long until they are holding their little girl.

We are just so thankful to the Lord for these sweet, HEALTHY baby girls!

She has Brasfield in her!

My sister has always been told that she looked like my mom, a Brasfield.

Only the past pix here is Emily. The first one is Jen, my sister, and the 2nd one is Molly, my niece. Emmie totally has some of the Brasfield family in her. Crazy how much they favor each other!



Here are some other recent pix:
We catch Emmie sometimes looking at herself in the mirror on her play gym.

Emmie is 50!!!!!!!

50 DAYS OLD that is! I just thought this would be a fun title for today!

From 3-14-09 Cullman Baby Shower

Yesterday, we went to Jeremy's old stompin' grounds, Cullman, for a Sip and See that Sashari gave for Emily, Jeremy and I. It was really nice and great to see some of our friends that still live in Cullman. Most of all, we were proud for them to meet Emily. Click here to see more pix.


***WARNING: TMI***P.S. On Friday, I changed Emmie's diaper before her 1p feeding and poop was dripping (yes, dripping) out the back when I was lifting her legs. crazy!


Also, here are some recent Facebook Status Updates by Jeremy:

2/14/09 Jeremy is tired from making the Tour de Emily: 3 grandparents, 3 aunts, 2 uncles, 1 cousin, & 1 brother (with family) all in 22 hours. Emmie, you are loved!

3/1/09 Jeremy is proud of all his family that made it to church for Emmie's dedication in spite of the snow we didn't get to play in.

3/3/09 Jeremy is enjoying some sweet time with Emmie while Mom is out with the ladies!

the Hazmat has visited...

Emmie woke up about 8a and I started nursing her on one side while I was laying in the bed on my side. Then I switched her to the other side. She pooped, so I put a burp cloth under her. Well, I had my hand on her back and felt the poop up her back. Then I looked at the burp cloth and it was covered. She would nurse (and I knew this was going to be an ordeal), so I put an open diaper under the burp cloth so it wouldn't get on the bed. Finally, when she was done I changed her. If it had not been the cute onesie that says "I Love Daddy" I probably would have cut it off of her. It was so gross.

So, now she has on the cute onesie that her Aunt Jen made for her.

Here Emmie is also wearing a barrette that Aunt Jen made for her too.

We were blessed on Sunday to have a shower in Birmingham after Emily is here. It was so nice and we got some really pretty things. Check out more pix here.

There was almost a tear. It won't be long.

Tummy Time Surfboard


From Emmie Weeks 5 and 6

If you have thought that Emmie is getting bigger, well she is. I weighted her on Monday and she is 10.5 lbs. I also I measured her on her Tummy Time Surfboard that has inches on it and she was 22 inches. She is also in #1 diapers...so long to newborns!

We also love kissing her multiple times a day, but we hope each time she doesn't meet her kiss quota. Thank goodness the warning signal has not gone off yet. ha-ha!

P.S. Emmie didn't make it through the day in the bear onesie that Aunt Jen made, so we changed into the fish one!

Emmie Meeting Aunt Jen, Uncle Chad, and Molly

From 3-1-09 Meeting Aunt Jen

Jen, Chad, and Molly came in last Thursday from Baltimore to meet Emmie for the first time. That night we just hung out and played Wii.

From 3-1-09 Meeting Aunt Jen

Then on Friday, my parents came in from Memphis. We just ate, napped, and ate some more.

From 3-1-09 Meeting Aunt Jen

Saturday, we tried our hardest to make it a "Jammie Day" and great-grandmother Dot came out to the house for a visit. We are a totally lazy family when we get together.

From 3-1-09 Meeting Aunt Jen

Sunday, we had Emily's Baby Dedication at our church and it snowed in Birmingham. It was such a blessing to dedicate Emily to the Lord since He has entrusted her to us. We see it as a privilage that the Lord is allowing us to raise her to love Him with all her heart here on earth. Jeremy also was lead by the Lord to pick out this verse for her. We will con't to pray this verse for her throughout her life. Emily we pray "For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you and asking God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all spiritual wisdom and understanding. And we pray this in order that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and may please him in every way..." Col. 1:9-10

Jeremy and I had both sides of our families in town. Each of Emily's living great-grandparents were present and it was very special.

From 3-1-09 Meeting Aunt Jen

Monday was just time to hang out again. They left that evening and it was so wonderful to all be together.
