Just Happenings

There's not a WHOLE lot of exciting news going on. Edy seems to finally be on a consistent sleep cycle. She goes to bed at 5:30, gets up about 1:30 or 2 to eat, then sleeps through until about 5:30. A pretty good night all around. Recently, she's started to get up about 4:30 or so. We kind of ignore her, because we don't want to teach her to get up earlier and earlier to play, so she just goes back to sleep or is quiet by herself for 45 min or so (I actually don't know how long, I'm sleeping)

I think we've been "training" her well. We have been able to put her back to sleep with just a pat and a binky (pacifier) on the few occasions where she has been awake between the above times. That process only takes about 2 minutes - I barely have to wake up! And on some occasions she has been put in her crib wide awake and kicking, and she has babbled herself to sleep while we are not even in the room. Yea Edy!

She still shows no interest in rolling over - though she does it quite often seemingly by accident. She goes from front to back easily, and on the changing table contorts herself so she could easily go back to front, but has never done it on any other flat surface.

She loves to stand up, and of you put her near table or couch where she can rest her hands, she'll stand there for 3 or 4 minutes until she wants to sit down. Unfortunately, then she just falls over. She also likes to walk around when you hold her up by the arms and she can kick her feet around.

I'll upload some cute pictures after I get them out of the camera this weekend. We have some cute Christmas pictures.
