The last month has been a major struggle for sleep. A few illnesses have really thrown her off and we are working hard to get her to sleep even for 2 hours at a time! I have tried a bath, lotion massage, essential oils, vapo rub (for her eternal cold), elevated the head of the bed, extra blankets, humidifier, sound machine, magic fairy dust, unicorn fur jammies, you name it. Last night she slept 5 hours without a peep, so something must be working! Maybe the magic fairy dust ;)
Besides sleeping (or lack there of) she is absolutely precious. She loves to play with Eli, be wherever we are, and just sit and snuggle. She has been an amazing traveler the past 2 weekends we had been gone and has loved all the attention from family.
She loves to nurse and wants nothing to do with a bottle. (Just like Eli!) man we are smitten with Emma!
by chance i happened to look at your blog and saw this update on Miss Emma. she is such a cute happy little girl - in spite of being a rotten sleeper. eventually you will have your nights back when you can sleep, but don't plan on it for about 20 more years. she obviously is loved and loved and fed and snuggled and she gives back love to you all......
