Oh Boy

Meggie at 6 weeks



Sometimes when I feed Meggie Kendra grabs her baby doll and bottle and pretends to feed her too. Then she'll grab a burp rag and burp her. Meggie has the tendency to spit up a ton and a few times as Kendra burped her baby she has said, "oh no! you spit up all over me!" She then scrubs her shoulder, the couch, the floor, and where ever else the spit up fell.



Mark warned me that one of these days Kendra would try to breast feed her baby. The day came earlier this week. As I fed Megan Kendra grabbed her baby...but not the bottle.



By some miracle on Tuesday both of my girls took a nap at the same time. I can't remember if this ever has happened. My excitement was too much and I was unable to fall asleep! Oh the irony.



Meggie often has a difficult time staying asleep during nap times. For instance, she will nap for 4-5 minutes, with the longest nap being 20 minutes. This results in a very sleep deprived baby. This has occurred since she was a week old. She has her doctor appointment next week and I'm hoping her doctor can shed some light on this. She really isn't a cranky baby since she's been on the prevacid unless she's overly tired. Any ideas on how to get a baby to stay asleep?!?!
