Elise's Blessing Day - May 24th.

Boss... de plane de plane

Elise on her first plane ride. 4 hours each way. She was a dream.

Help...she's addicted

So we are on day three of going binky free and things are not going well. I have talked to so many people that were like "My baby cried the first couple of times without the binky and then went down no problem on the second or third day." She absolutely will not go down quietly. I'm told that she is still too young "cry it out" so I don't let her do that. I can rock her to sleep without the binky but as soon as I put her down, she screams. I'm not sure what to do from here. ???

To Binky or not to Binky...

That is the question. Elise is eight weeks old and likes to play the binky game. Where she needs it to fall asleep, but doesn't know how to keep it in her mouth. So I'm up numerous times throughout the night to plug in the binky when she spits it out and starts to fuss. I've been reading online about this and people say that they were going through the same thing so they just took the binky away altogether. We tried that a couple of times but gave in after 20 minutes of screaming. I guess the alternative is to wait until she either can put in in herself, or finds a finger as adequate replacement.

Here are more pics.

Her hair after the bath.

This is a cute face she makes often

Look at her reaching for the toy. She's so smart.

Smiley pics!

So I realized that our camera does this multi picture thing if you hold down the button. It's good for capturing quick baby faces and movements. Here's the result. I can't decide which is more cute :)

"Awwww shucks"

"Seriously Mom!"

"Go Cleveland!"
