We finally got around to taking Brooklyn's pictures this past weekend. They turned out cute. I was a little worried because she loves to eat her hands and pull on her hair so I was afraid her pictures wouldn't turn out because she can't keep her hands down, but she did well. We had to wake her up from a nap so she looks a little dopey on the first few!
Brooklyn still has an awful cold. I now know why people say they don't want winter babies! I have been giving her Mucinex at night time and it helps somewhat with her cough. She still has a lot of phlegm that she just can't get rid of. Eric calls her a percolating coffee pot and that is exactly what she sounds like when she breathes. She still sleeps only 4-5 hours a night. It is getting old!!! Eric and I cannot even function on that little of sleep so I don't know what she does it. She takes about two 1-hour naps a day. We have been learning to just let her cry during the night but boy, is that hard! She doesn't eat anymore during the night so we do a lot of putting her pacifier back in and letting her fuss. Some nights she will go back to sleep after 5-10 minutes of fussing, while other nights are over an hour. We are still eagerly waiting for the time when she sleeps through the night....we are beginning to wonder if it is ever going to happen though! :)
I'll leave you with a few pictures. Have a good week!
Brooklyn loves to give us cheesy smiles!
Before church on Easter morning (Brooklyn has her baptism
dress on...I am too cheap to buy her an Easter dress when this
one still fits her!)
She fell asleep while playing this morning...this is so unusual
I had to take a picture of it!
She is so cute. Hey..I had twins who were not sleeping through the night so don't worry you are not alone. hope school is going well. Take care
