Brianna Update

Brianna is 8 weeks old now and is slowly working her way into a schedule. She typically sleeps anywhere from 5 to 7 hours at night (this past week she generally slept from midnight to 6 AM!). When she wakes up in the morning, I feed her and she usually goes right back to sleep for another couple of hours. One morning last week and this week she must have been exhausted (perhaps she is growing?) — after getting up and being fed, she slept another 6 hours!

We have started putting her in her crib for her morning naps. I plan to do the same for her afternoon naps as soon as I can convince her that the crib is just as comfy as my lap (and as soon as I can convince myself that I don’t need to snuggle with her). :) At night she is still in the cradle next to our bed. I know we will have to move her upstairs soon. I am just waiting until I am convinced that she will sleep through most nights so I am not constantly going up and down the stairs. Plus, I kind of like having her next to me.

She is still colicky and usually has at least one bad spell during the day, but I think it is getting better. I am told it should go away by 3 months, so not too much longer.

She is finally starting to fit into her clothes, and she even is starting to grow out of an outfit or two. I’ll be sure to take lots of pictures as she models all her adorable outfits! Here is one of her in a new yellow jumper/onsie one of my co-workers gave her. Isn’t she adorable?
