Caylee Can Sit Up!

Big Caylee milestone today. She can sit up! Not all the time, but if it's right after a feeding and she isn't tired, She will sit up. Courtney and I were having fun playing with her today. I love this stage, she is just so smily, giggly and cute. I love her fatness and she gives a different smile to each one of us.
She is already seeking Courtney's approval. Courtney is really starting to enjoy Caylee. She always wants to hold her and pick her up! Yikes! She brings toys to and seems to be excited that Caylee will be sharing her room soon.

Caylee was sleeping really well and then she got sick with a cold and she started waking up in the night. Then she was sleeping 10 hrs a night and then back to only 7-8 hr straight. I was getting frustrated and started to take notes. The results were something I figured, but didn't want to admit or figure it was true.

It's tough having the two kids and trying to keep on schedule for both kids. It doesn't allow us much time to get out if the house or do much without it affecting someone's nap. Courtney starts to really misbehave if we don't get out everyday. So I've been getting her out every day and I enjoy it too. But, it's been really affecting Caylee nap schedule. So for over a week she hasn't had a single day where she had her whole nap at home and a full nap as well. Time to buckle down! So yesterday I decided no matter what it takes the next few days I need to make sure Caylee gets her nap and completely. Also, she has been doing the 45 min nap wake up routine and if we are out it's hard for her not to get stimulated enough by Courtney, etc and then to fall back to sleep.

Yesterday we did pretty good with naps. Not perfect because we were at my friend Erica's house. But she slept 9 1/2 hrs. And today we did really well. We went on our walk first thing instead of breakfast first and that way Caylee had her full nap actually in the crib. The next two naps went right on schedule. So we will see how she does tonight. This whole waking up is wearing on me and imam exhausted come about 6:00 at night.
