Baby Emma Blog

In keeping with a promise to myself, I’ve decided that the only way to keep an account of the first few weeks of Emma’s birth is to blog it with daily discourse and late night meanderings!

Love Hurts!

Emma drew first blood!!! Her fingernails grow so fast, we can't keep up with trimming them. Last night, I was playing with those bubble cheeks of hers, when in a squeal of delight (her, not me) she grabbed my chin and raked me with her talons! I didn't even realise I was bleeding until I saw some of it on her jumpsuit! Cheeky thing! My girls are so rough! As per usual, they get these violent tendencies from their mother!!! I hope it doesn't leave a scar...

ODD SPOT: The word philatelist (stamp collector) stems for the Latin phase "Happy to avoid paying taxes".

P.S: I've always wanted to be a philatelist...!!!
