Hooray for Kate!

Great news! She slept a 3 1/2 hour stretch, ate in record time, then slept another 3 hour stretch! Hooray! I woke up today and felt like myself again! I needed that sleep! :) It's really so exciting!!! Thanks, everyone for your input. We have basically tried all of them. Hopefully we have found what she likes :)

Adoreable photo. They are soooo sweet when they sleep. Hopefully you will catch some more zzzzz's soon. I'm glad you found what works. Every baby is definately different. And sometimes the same baby is different from one week/day to the next. They like to keep you guessing. I am so glad you are liking your gift!! ;-) Makes me happy.

Wow, that still doesn't sound like enough sleep, but I know how good that is with a newborn! She really is SO adorable and I was jealous that Rich got to see her. Hang in there- you will sleep again someday!

She is a doll! Congrats on the good night sleep. Ada is on a good role where she only wakes up once during the night, and then again around 7ish. It has been heaven although I am still pretty wiped out.
To answer your questions, Tummy time is when you lay baby on stomach and they work on strengthening their neck muscles. I think our doc had her start after her one month check up. She likes it for the most part. I guess a lot of babies do not. So are you all healed up and everything? I went running for the first time last night and felt great (only ran 1 mile and walked another).

Yay! On those horrible nights I look and them and think, "You are lucky you are so cute". You can for sure say that for her... she is DARLING!

she is such a doll! congrats again! glad to hear she is sleeping better. kyler wouldn't sleep either. i think it's pretty normal for babies to have their days and nights confused. he slept in his swing the first 4 months of his life! that was HUGE for us! good luck!

Greg & Abby, your baby is beautiful! I think my son was born right around the same time. His birthday is September 19th. Abby is chubbier though, which is completely adorable. Jones is a bit of a light weight.

I hope everything is going well with Kate now that she's older!
