Bath Fun

I think we have too much fun around here. Love it!

And I'm cherishing 4 in a tub moments. It won't last much longer. We're getting pretty tight on space already. And it won't be long before C and M are ready to wash all by themselves.

She sleeps!

E is sleeping through the night! From day one, we begin training our babies to sleep through the night, and it has really paid off. All of them have been able to transition to a 12 hour night by 2 months. This is huge, because not only do I love my sleep, but I need my sleep!

E's doing really well, sleeping 7pm to at least 7am. I can't stand to leave her past 7:30 in the mornings. I just have to go check on her and make sure she's okay. And many mornings I find her wide awake, just looking around. She's very happy after a good night's sleep.

And most mornings she's naked from the nipples up. Somehow she wiggles herself out of her gown and blankets to the top of the bassinet. I think I would wake up screaming of discomfort, but it works for her.

As she works her hands up the sleeves, she grabs hold. She's been holding this grip for quite awhile because the sleeve is wrinkled and sweaty. And as you notice in the picture, she doesn't let go. I have to force her hands open. Usually her outfit is so stretched out that she has to get a new one.

E says hello

E is 8 weeks old today and doing fabulous! She is so much fun! She reminds me of C in that she really enjoys interacting with people. She loves listening and cooing with Andy. Do we have another social bug who loves being around people?

How'd that happen?!

See the little red bump on E's nose. Yes. It does look like a little scratch. This happens all the time with infants since they don't quite have control of their limbs. BUT, this isn't a little scratch. The skin is not broken, but a little blood vessel must be. I was holding her. She sneezed, and a little red dot appeared. Can you break a blood vessel by sneezing?

Sorry for the close up, E. It's not your best look.

A's Fort

A has found a new place to play. We've had this table (2 of them actually) for all the kids, but noone has ever used it for a fort. Yep. He's a boy, and I'm so proud of him for doing boy things. Sometimes I am a bit concerned that he spends more time in tutu's than playing in the dirt. Go A! Have fun in your fort, my little man!

Cute Little Tongue

E was making faces, and I was able to capture her cute little tongue. How sweet.
