While I have a moment with a sleeping baby I'll post a few things.

Ellery had another doctors appointment yesterday. She is now 8 lbs!! We have a little eater, just like her mommy! ;) Everything checked out just fine. The nurse told us that she has the capacity to sleep 4 hours in a row, so if that happens I shouldn't freak out but instead SLEEP!

Unlike the first part of the week, the end of this week has been fantastic in regards to her eating, wake & sleep schedule. Ellery is awake from about 4:00 PM or so until about 8:00PM. Now, she might doze off for a few minutes, but she's not in the coma sleep. That means come our nighttime routine (bath, comfy pj's, nursing and a bible story) she's out pretty quick. Then around 4 AM she will begin to fully wake up, but that's when we apply the pacifier. What a wonderful mommy tool. This gets her through the few moments of restless sleep until Daddy can get up and feed her at 6 AM.

This morning I think her tummy was upset. She wouldn't let me put her down with out screaming! We were going to visit with Cristy & her son Cooper, but I had to post pone that event. Lord knows I wouldn't want a screaming baby coming to visit my house, so I wouldn't let Ellery interrupt Cooper's schedule. Anyway, as I was taking her temp. to make sure she wasn't really sick, I realized she had a few too many poopy diapers in a row. So I guess the spicy soup I ate for dinner last night must not be sitting too well.

Now, she's fed and sleeping peacefully. I think I'm going to go get some rest as well, before the next feeding. It's funny how the body can tell you, "rest now!"
