To Binky or not to Binky? That is the question. (Day 13)


Maddie doesn't always know what to do with the Binky. Here, she wants to suck on it, but still pushes it out...she just can't decide...to Binky, or not to Binky?

Maddie has a new routine - each morning, she gets red in the face and cries every time she has to pass gas...we're not sure from where she gets that. She sucks the binky between the little cries and stays awake between a couple of feedings. By late morning/early afternoon, she's ready to sleep again between feedings.
She is getting stronger each day. She is now able to latch on almost by herself, and Mommy has healed enough where it doesn't hurt too much anymore. Whew! It was rough-going for awhile there!
Grandma helped out a lot today, holding Maddie and letting Mommy take a nice, long shower. What a treat! Grandma also made a yummy dinner for Mommy and Daddy (per Mommy's request) - blintzes with cream cheese filling, just like when Mommy was a little girl.

Awwwww! She's so cute. Hey, when grammy's done over there, could you send her my way. I LOVE blintzes too! :)
