Week 16

Madeline is sixteen weeks old today!  That means....it's time for another bunny picture!

There is a bit of a debate over the bunny picture this time.  I like this one best...



But, Eric likes this one best....

Madeline is starting to really, really laugh.  Eric was making funny faces at her this afternoon, and she was cracking up.  Her laugh is the best thing ever!  Eric also likes to "fly" her around the apartment by lifting her up in the air on her belly.  She kicks her feet up when he does it, and it really does look like she's flying.  Super adorable.  She's got a good daddy.  

The Sleep Monster is continuing to win. Hoo-ray!  She's been sleeping like a champ lately.  I'm talking like twelve to fourteen hour nights with only two feedings.  In fact, the fire alarm in our building just went off AGAIN, and she didn't even wake up.  I hope this sleeping streak continues.    

She can fit her whole fist into her mouth, and now that's she discovered that she can do this, that's where her fist lives.  She's also started drooling....gross.    

She continues to love baths.  She kicks and splashes the water everywhere.  BUT!  She HATES getting out of the bath.  Tonight she threw a major temper tantrum while I was trying to get her dressed.  She was screaming her high-pitched-I'm-so-mad-Mumma-you-better-cuddle-me-right-this-second! cry.  So sad.

Her second day of "school" went well.  I guess she spent a lot of time sitting in the Boppy Bumbo (too many silly-named baby products starting with the letter "B"), staring at herself in the mirror.  

The only problem is that she's been super over-tired and cranky for us when she gets home.  I feel really bad that I only see her for about three waking hours a day and that she spends most of that time crying.  Hopefully she'll fall into a better routine as she adjusts to her new lifestyle.  Poor baby.  

Can you believe how big she's getting?
