Emeline Jane



Emeline Jane Camp was born at 1:34 AM on April 9th, 2010. She was 9 lbs 6 oz and 20 3/4" long.




She has been and will be a welcome addition to our family. Emma is a pretty calm baby so far, which will be nice.


This time at the hospital was considerably better than when Ezra was born. We all came home yesterday and everyone is doing really well.


We came home to a great surprise. Our orchid tree started blooming on the 9th. What a beautiful birthday present.



It has been wonderful having family around to help us the last couple of weeks, and we thank all of you that have helped us out so much with everything.



Ezra is still getting used to the whole idea that there's another kid around the house, but it looks like he'll warm up quickly. He calls her "ma", which has been a bit confusing as to whom he is referring at times.


Emeline has been sleeping a lot, which is to be expected. She managed to stay awake for an almost 1 hour stretch today, so we'll see how tonight goes. She's been eating a lot, finishing her 2 oz bottles just about every time she feeds.

We're grateful to have such a wonderful little family. Ezra is getting so big and learning so much, and our little Emma is here with us too. The Lord has truly blessed us.
