Shoes~

After refusing to wear her infant shoes, I was worried Ade would never want to wear shoes at all. This weekend she wore her pedipeds over to Susan, Eli, and Dana's for lunch, and today she wore her baby Uggs. So sweet :-) She also wore tights for the first time today -wriggly toes and chubby thighs!




Today she really mastered rolling over both directions (front to back, back to front). She had done it in the bed, but it is softer and a little easier than the floor.

I love dressing my little dollbaby up, and her GREAT Aunt Micki sure helps fuel my obsession. We got another package of adorable outfits. I can't wait to do a little photo shoot to get some pics for our Christmas cards. I am also excited to take Ade to sit on Santa's lap.

Ade has been having some terrible nights of sleep, wanting to nurse every hour! Yes, every hour. The time change has really messed us up as well - she wants to go to bed at 5pm and wake up at 4am. We are slowly trying to get her back on track, but I truly can't remember what a normal night's sleep would be like. To sleep in a comfortable position without a little human attached to me... what would that be like? She is doing better during the days though - she is eating three "solid" meals a day, usually 8am, noonish, and 4:30pm. One meal has the rice cereal with banana, and the other meals include a fruit and a veggie (like sweet potato and applesauce, for example). She is nursing less during the day as a result, down to maybe every 3-4 hours. Her naps still aren't great. Her morning nap is the longest - usually an hour or so. The other naps (maybe 2-3) are between 30-45 minutes.

I am still worried about daycare - today she was with daddy for two hours, and freaked out. She just NEEDS mommy. Bla. Tomorrow I will be taking her up to "school" for practice. I will stay with her in the infant care room for two hours to help transition her in. I'll report back on this adventure...
