Lilypie Expecting a baby Ticker

Week 10 in Review

Ahhhh.....the joys of having a good baby. Julia started to get a little fussy tonight around 7. I gave her a quick bath, but her pajamas on and put her to bed. Two minutes later (and I'm not exaggerating), she was sound asleep. Granted, she'll be up around 9ish to eat, but then off to sleepy land she'll go. I love it!

Too bad the rest of the night isn't as great. She's been going to bed between 7 and 8p and sleeping until 5 or 6a, getting up once after a stretch of 5 hours and then again in 3 hours. Unfortunately, sometimes she'll wake up at countless other times for reasons I can't be sure of. Re-bundling or offering her a pacifier usually does the trick, but after getting up multiple times, she usually ends up between Paul and I or I go sleep on the couch. Obviously we don't want that to continue forever!

Julia's at a place now where she's not particularly content just sitting and watching the world go by. She prefers to be carried (looking out, not on the hip or over the shoulder) or held, but even then, she prefers to be standing. At Uncle Jon's suggestion, we now have a Bobblin' Band Bouncer that she really likes. Such fun!

In other news, she's holding her head up really well, has a very peely scalp, is drooling like she has a mouth full of teeth coming in, is still struggling with diaper rash, and is now out of 0-3 month clothes (with the exception of a few dresses). Here are the latest pictures:

Hmmm...sounds like our nights, and Kate is 4 months old. I keep thinking it will turn around soon...
