Chaffin Girls Summer 2013


Lots has happened this summer.  We added an addition to our family on the 26th of May after I spent 5 days previous in the hospital.  Scarlett Elise Chaffin was due to arrive July 28th, but came 2 months and 2 days early.  She was 3 pounds and 16 3/4 inches long.  Due to her being premature, she spent 5 1/2 weeks in the NICU in Provo, Utah.  We gladly brought her home on July 4, 2013.  During those almost 2 months of hanging out in the NICU, Emme participated in swimming lessons and also had a dance class that ended with a concert where she was a lion and penguin. We got to enjoy grandparents and aunts helping us and visiting.  The pictures below are a few highlights from this very eventful SUMMER!  We love our girls! 




Starting her out young and on the right foot, just like her big sis!





One of our NICU nurses made molds of Scarlett's hands and made these for us!  Such a sweet and tiny  present to treasure.

This just proves how much Emme loves the water.  She's Ariel all the way!!

Emme and I also participated in a church "talent" show just recently and sang a little excerpt from Annie Get Your Gun.  The song was "Anything You Can Do I Can Do Better".  Enjoy the clip!
