8 Weeks

Ayla, this week you have started to suck much more on your arm and hand. You have a tendency to get really fussy in the evenings. The best remedy for this is Daddy or sitting outside. You love to sit up on his knees and hold hands. Mommy tends to stress out during fussy time. During the day it is just you and mommy and the boys, because daddy is at school. Your poor hair misses new patches everyday. Also, you don't take very good naps throughout the day. 30 to 45 minutes is usually the max. You have been doing great at night though. Usually, we try to bathe you around 8:30-9:00 and then feed you immediately after wards. You are hopefully asleep and settled by 10 and sleep until 6ish. We hope and pray that this is a pattern you will continue to stay on. Daddy gets up at 6 to feed you while mommy pumps, then he is off to school and you and mommy try to squeeze in a little extra sleep. You are the ultimate deciding factor in that though! 8 weeks has already gone incredibly too fast. I can't believe you are almost 2 months old!This was you at church on Sunday...you are Mommy's sweetheart!

Oh Sarah! She's just beautiful. Hang in there with fussy time. I though we would die but AK had her fussy time for literally 3 to 4 hours. Ah! But she grew out of it and it becomes a distant memory. Post more pictures!!!

She is such a cutie! Aedan had a fussy time in the evenings too at that age. It's funny how going outside seemed to help every time.
