Elsie's blessing mentioned that she would be a joy to her family and that is so true.
She is pure joy and so happy 95% of the time.
I can't imagine our family without her.
Sleeping
She just started extending her nights even more.
She is at 10-12 hours which is great but can also be a little tricky.
It is the hardest when she wakes at 11 hours because it is not her wake time yet and she isn't quite ready to be up for the day but won't eat very much only an hour later.
I usually feed her if she is pretty awake we start the day if not I'll feed her and put her back to bed and then wake her up at 8:30.
Sometimes she will also stay content in bed until 7:30 so we can start the day then.
She is still taking four naps a day that are usually 2-2.5 hours except for her last one which is about an hour.
She falls asleep on her own and doesn't even like that I hold her to sing to her.
She squirms until I lay her down.
She likes when I stroke her head after I lay her down.
Feeding
We are at 5-6 feedings a day (depending on if she has a "night" feeding)
She still won't eat sooner than 2.5 hours and it is usually closer to 3.5 hours.
She likes to hold my hand while she nurses.
Feeds are usually at 8:00, 11:30, 2:30, 5:30, and 8:00.
She still poops every time I feed her.
Playing
She has gotten so much more coordinated this month.
She can grab the toys on her play mat with her death grip.
She loves to put her hands in her mouth.
She sucks on her thumb on her right hand and her middle and ring finger on her left hand.
She is super smiley.
She smiles anytime someone looks at her.
She has the cutest giggle too!
She loves when her brothers come lay by her to play.
Logan is still a little crazy around her but Jake is super sweet.
He loves to "babysit" her while I get somethings done.
