Life at home






Life at home is wonderful and always flying by. A week ago Avery's cord fell off as we can now give her a big girl bath! She LOVES the tub and bathing, especially when we sing to her! The past few days have been too cute watching Avery change. I remember feeding her in the middle of the night looking at her and realizing she was already growing and looking more like a baby not a new born. What a great feeling, but a sad one too. My baby is growing up before my eyes and it is amazing! She is more alert, and looking toward sounds, trying to hold her little head up, wow, she is strong! Our days consist of wake/eat, play, nap repeat. The nights are still a bit tough. She likes to be up from 10-2ish and we cannot get her to sleep during that time. Any suggestions??

Oh Katie enjoy her all you can it will be April 9th before you know it and you will just be in awwww of how fast they really dogrow up!!! I know it it totally hard but my mom and mom in law came over and we kept her up the whole day. She only took 1 nap for about 30 min. it was a lot of crying, bu she slept and only woke up 2 times for feedings and stayed up for about 30 min.that night. We repeted the next day and the next, by the third night she only woke up for 2 feedings and went right back to bed. I can explanie better detail if you want to call me!!! Love yall!!

I would suggest some strong bourbon or some of Ryan's cheap vodka to help her sleep. Let me know if you need some good stuff.

She should just grow out of it. Me and Cooper use to sit up and rock until 3:00 every night. Exhausting yes, but just cherish it..it won't last long.
