the morning after

this was from last night...
after pulling my hair out, playing baby einstein music and crying myself, Lorelei finally drifted off to sleep, with a pacifier.


She slept from about 12:00 to 5:45, ate, and then slept until 8:00.


Now... she's asleep again and it's 10:00.





maybe i should cope with the fact that she's a night owl and wont fall asleep unless it's 11:30-12:00


i felt so awful last night because she was crying so hard and i didn't know what to do.

today, austin has a surprise coming for me since he'll be gone on our anniversary. but after i get this surprise, i'm thinking of venturing out to idaho falls, by myself and going to target and the mall. the walk around the mall will count as my excersise. we'll see tho.

Lorelei had her 2nd dr's appoitnment on thursday and she's almost up to 9 lbs and she's grown an whole inch!! so now she's 21 inches long. she's going to be tall just like her dad, i just know it.
The dr. says she's really alert and everything looked perfect, but poor baby has thrush :(.

yep, that's about it for Lorelei. her next appointment isn't until december, and that's when she'll get her shots.

Hey Dawn! Your baby is so cute! Since we live so close to each other, and I would get very frustrated by all the crying and hopeless feeling, I would love to give you a break anytime! Really, this isn't just one of those fake invitations--- if you ever just want to go to Porters, or on a date night- call me! I am free most nights (including tonight!)... so let me know. Really. Have a good one! She is a doll!

My baby does the same thing. won't go to bed for anything unless it's past midnight, then she sleeps great. I would definately recommend just to give into it. And Ella has thrush too! See, they have so much in common! (Actually most babies get a little bit of thrush, its usually no biggie.)
