Penelope

My baby is getting so big and is as beautiful as ever! She sleeps really well at night, it's getting her to lay down that's the problem. It takes us a few hours to get her to go to sleep and stay asleep. We'll get to her sleep and then put her down in her bassinet several times before she'll be down for the night. She sleep for 10 to 15 mintues then wake up and need to be rocked or nursed back to sleep each time she wakes up. But once she's asleep she sleeps for at least 5 hours before needing to eat and be changed then goes right back to sleep. It's interesting that she doesn't need help going back to sleep. I'll put her back to bed awake and she'll fall asleep on her own. She has been less grumpy and most days only is fussy when she needs a nap or some other basic need. Which has always been the case but she's better at not getting so upset about them. Here are some recent pictures of her.

This is what she wore to church last Sunday (Nov 20th)



That same Sunday asleep in Chris's arms. So sweet!
And these are from today. This is what she wore to church today! It's a gift from Josh and Cherry and I just love it! So cute!

Look who's smiling!

I know I haven't done blogging since she's been born ... oh well I'm not going to go back and do posts about the first few weeks I just don't have a whole time of time to blog and to be honest I just don't want to. She's been smiling for awhile now but today is the first time I've got it on camera! I was trying to get pictures of her in the hat Maren made for her since she has a big head and the hat is a bit small for her. And I caught her at in a happy mood! Look at this cutie!
