This month has been one of many changes. I am amazed at how many new things you can do. Somethings literally happened over night!
Highlights
Eating: You are still my little piggy! You eat every three or four hours, and you can suck down 4 oz. no problem. At night, you usually can drink 5 oz. Your burps can clearly be heard across the county. My new favorite thing you're doing is clutching your burp raps when you eat. You love holding things in your hands. I think it's precious how you go into your food comas after you eat your night bottle. You're so tired, we can't even get you to burp. You plop your head down and are out for the count.
Sleeping: Daycare wears you out! You usually go to bed around 8:30. You are so tired each night. And since you're miss nosey pants all day long, you're overly stimulated, which leads to some crying and screeching. I can get you to sleep and then exactly one hour later, you wake up screaming. Half the time your eyes are still closed. After another ounce or feeling mommy's hand on your tummy, you're back asleep until about 4am. We're getting closer to this whole sleeping through the night concept. (keep praying friends:) Oh, and we really need to figure out this screeching after an hour sleep business...
Size: You are wearing size 2 diapers and 3-6 month clothes. And Momma's bows for your cute little head are getting bigger and bigger which means you're little head needs to grow some:)
Responding: You love to track the back lights on our cell phones. We move the phones around, and you just follow it! You're also obsessed with the pattern of my cell phone case, which makes for camera photo taking shoots a little awkward when you give the camera phone the dirtiest looks!
You also enjoy sitting up more. You still got quite a lean going on when we put you in your bumbo, but your neck muscles and balance has improved greatly! You don't even like to lie back in your car seat anymore. You look like a little bird holding your head up and forward. You're my back seat driver. What a little helper!!!
Sleeping: Campbell is in her big girl crib now! This means that mom and dad are sleeping better too. We finally moved Campbell out of our room and into her room. When I say "we," I mean her daddy. I probably needed the push. I kept making excuse after excuse of why we needed her to still sleep in her bassinet next to our bed. Daddy is tough!
We also got you out of your swaddle. You can now sleep without startling yourself, which is a major plus.
Firsts:
Campbell rolled over! She did the whole dang thing from stomach to back AND back to stomach. I can barely believe it.
Quit growing up so fast:(
