Finally! A Post with Pictures!

Sorry there was no Make You Smile Monday post this week. Caleb has been taking a break from comedy. But we'll be off tomorrow to visit with family for five days, so I'm sure he'll come up with some great stuff then.

Ana has been growing so much! Maybe it has something to do with her eating all night long :) Actually, I've got some interesting news in that department. Last night she woke at 12:30am and I fed her and then she woke up at 2:30am. This is not shocking behavior. I usually just feed her because I'm a one trick pony. I know what will knock her out and at that hour, my main goal is to go back to sleep. But, this time I tried to put her back to bed without feeding. It worked! Got her into bed and went back to bed myself. 15 seconds later, she was up again. So, I tried to feed her but she wasn't interested! I had changed her diaper because she had pooped (which was weird cause she usually doesn't do that at night anymore) and I guess she was thinking it was time to get up. So, I just put her in the swing and went back to bed at 3:00am. Four glorious hours later... I woke up! I had forgotten how great four straight hours of sleep can feel.

So, my problems are solved. She'll just have to sleep in her swing for the rest of her life.

She has been rolling a lot! I don't remember Caleb rolling around like she does. It's almost as good as her crawling. I'll set her down on the floor and she'll just roll all over. Roll over to a toy, roll over to Caleb, roll over to Mommy. Roll under furniture...



And here she is rolling over to one of her toys...



See her hair? It's getting really long and I was feeling the need to do something about it. It's always in her eyes and hair clips just won't stay in. I thought about trimming it, but Shane is totally against it. So, I used some of my hair cream in her hair and it's working great! See here...



And you see here what she's doing!!??? Trying to crawl!! She's not even 5 1/2 months! She's going to be crawling soon!

Wow, Marie, she is really pretty! And I agree with Lawanda, the first thing I thought with that first picture is how big she is getting! Amazing. You produce quality milk, Mama!
