*She is sleeping great! Most of her naps are in her pack n play or in the swing. At night she is waking 1-2 times during a 12 hour night, most of the time sleeping for a 6-7 hour stretch before waking to feed. When she gets fed in the middle of the night she is fed and back asleep in 20 minutes (it is a blessing!) She still loves to be swaddled but is super strong and unless she is tightly wrapped in two swaddling blankets she will break free quickly. During the day she seems to be awake for 1 1/2 hours at a time with naps ranging from 30 minutes to 2 hours. Her afternoon nap is the longest (which overlaps nicely with Anna and Ashleys!)
*She is eating great. Eating around every 3 to 3 1/4 hours. She is also taking the bottle great.She is still very hard to burp and if we don't get the burps out sometimes she vomits quite a large amount later.
*She has either developed some baby acne or gets heat rash pretty easily. It's so hard to know since it really comes out on hot days and when we are outside.
*Since I put her down after she falls asleep for naps, it is pretty noticeable with where she has started losing her hair on the back of her head. Not only is she losing a lot of her baby hair but it's coming in lighter.
*This month she had gone 4 days without pooping so I had to stimulate her anus to helped her go. Not a very fun job but it worked. I hope to never have to do that again.
*She is smiling a ton!!!!! She loves to smile at any face, especially after she has eaten or woken up. She smiled at mommy for the first time that we saw.
*She is also cooing a lot. She loves to make the sound "ma"
*She has giggled.
*She is becoming less of a fan of the bumbo and tummy time. She maybe lasts 5 minutes at a time.
*She loves being held up by my shoulder and also on my hip looking out.
*She loves watching the swing mobile go around and loves looking at fans, light fixtures and anything that is in contrast with one another. She is also starting to grab toys on her playyard and kick toys on her bouncer. She also loves to sit/lay under trees and look up at the leaves. She loves being outside.
*She "talks" with her eyebrows. Her whole face lights up when she is active and awake.
*Her tear ducts are both unclogged.
*She holds down her milk pretty well. Except for a couple of throw ups she barely spits up. I think I used 2 or 3 burp cloths this month.
*She likes to stick her tongue back at people when they stick theirs out at her.
*She likes being patted on the back pretty hard. It gets all her gas and burpies out so she it more comfortable :)
*She is such a delightful and happy baby. Not very fussy at all. She is very laid back and a perfect 3rd baby.
*She has the longest most beautiful eye lashes. And VERY long toes!
Much Love,
Jenny
