And the answer is....

The answer is not that Chloe sucks her thumb...although in a previous post I had a picture of her sucking her thumb. The answer is that she suck her fingers. She starts out going to sleep each night (or for each nap) with her soother and once it pops out of her mouth, then she finds her fingers. I really think this helps to keep her content and allows her to sleep longer throughout the night. She is going for more than 10 hours at night, sometimes even more than 11 hours. I am thinking that she will soon be ready to go to bed by 8/8:30 and sleep for at least 12 hours. She is feeding 4 times, every 4 hours (sometimes a little sooner) and takes 4-5 feeds a day. She is very happy and content, loves being around us and enjoys all the noise her brothers make. She is always looking around for them and following them and greeting them with plenty of smiles. When she is fussy, I don't always know what to do with her, since she is more happy than not. :)
waking up...I wake her up each morning to start her day with a bath and her first morning feed, who knows how long she would sleep if I left her!

and of course with all that hair...a little bit of bedhead

this it the way I am greeted every morning when I wake her up
such a nice way for her to wake up!
sucking her fingers

And of course big brother Ethan wanted to be in a picture too :)
Stay tuned for pictures of our last couple of weeks....I like to post some pictures each week about how our week has been, but the past couple of weeks seem a little crazy busy around here. And next week is busy too with dentist and doctor appointments. I hope to post again really soon and be a faithful blogger (or at least a once a week faithful blogger) :)
