Things we've learned about Elizabeth

Well, we are learning about each other every day... and every day gets a little bit easier. Here are a few things we've learned about Elizabeth thus far:
  1. They may say you're supposed to sleep on your back, but she'd so much rather be on her side!
  2. She sucks on a pacifier so hard, her lips actually turn blue
  3. She has the amazing sense to only dirty a freshly changed diaper. Who could possibly go in an old or wet one? :)
  4. She really doesn't need much sleep - despite the fact that her parents really do
  5. She loves tummy time!
  6. Her stomach is like a four-hour alarm clock...
  7. We can't wait until her smiles are real - cause they are so darn cute already...

Please keep in touch! We enjoy hearing updates from the outside world (which has now become everything outside our home!!) :)

Sounds like she's doing well and is a "normal" baby!!!! They all tend to do what they are not "supposed" to do as they are going to. The next one may be completely different!!!! As for the 4 hours between feedings...CONSIDER YOURSELF VERY LUCKY!!!!!! My girls never went more than 2 hours until about 4 months old! Perhaps we can borrow Elizabeth to teach Felicity how to wait for food when she arrives!

Hahaha! Everything sounds normal to me. Just be glad you didn't have a boy, otherwise you'd be complaining about the 'fountain of youth' soiling you on every diaper change. Good times!

The sleepless nights are a bear to get through, but they'll be a distant memory soon enough. Hang in there!
