Life is Good!


Maddie this morning sporting her warm "Life is Good" sweats from the Bryant clan and doing a little tummy time. Mommy still hasn't seen her rollover from her tummy to her back, but Daddy has seen it twice. (Mommy is beginning to wonder if Daddy is pulling her leg.) She is really holding her head up high!



Here Daddy offers Maddie some desserts at the Superbowl party last Sunday. She had a great time, even took a little nap in the middle of the chaos, but was overtired when we got home and took nearly 1 1/2 hours to fall asleep. She slept from 9:30pm to 7am, allowing Mommy a full night's sleep for her first day back at work.

This week has been about adjusting - Mommy going back to work and Vivian joining our family. Maddie and Vivian play a lot during the day, and Maddie has been taking three naps, but they are short (45 minutes at most). At night, she goes to bed earlier than normal, 6pm, and sleeps until 4am for a feeding, then again until 7-8am. Mommy is worried that she is sleeping too much at night and sad that on the days she goes into the office she doesn't see Maddie until the middle-of-the-night feeding, but Daddy reminds her that this is just an adjustment and eventually things will change (Daddy is so rationale). And furthermore, Mommy should not complain as she is getting 6 solid hours of sleep in a row this week.

Life is Good!

Glad she is sleeping so well at night! The more sleep the better - good for brain development!
