The Life & Times of Sydney: Sweet Girl

We have the sweetest girl! She is so darn cute and such a good baby. We are so blessed to have her.

Quirky is one way to describe her at this point. She just kills us with some of the things she does. I know I mentioned her changing table before, but it is just the oddest thing. It has now gotten to the point where if she is crying, we can just put her on that table and she calms right down and is just as content as could be. She just stares at the ceiling and the bottom of her shelf that is right above her. We don't know what it is, but it works. The other morning she was crying and I put her on there and I got a load of laundry done, the dishwasher unloaded and loaded, and I vacuumed the whole upstairs. Forty-five minutes went by before she was ready to get off. It is so goofy!

Some of her favorite things (can 5-week-old babies have favorite things?!)-other than her changing table- are kisses, her vibrating swing, and showers with daddy- Brian won't let me take a picture of that which is unfortunate because it is adorable! :)

She has now started sleeping most of the night. YAY!!! The other night she slept for 7.5 hours! I couldn't believe it. The last couple of nights she has slept for 5 or 6 hours, gotten up to eat, and then went back down for another 3. Can't beat that...at least not compared to what she was doing a couple weeks ago. Granted, now that I have actually typed this, she will probably not sleep at all the next few nights! :)

We fall in love with her more every day. It's amazing how she just grows on us by the minute. She is so beautiful and we just can't believe she is ours. God has definitely given us a special little gift.
