Maddie took her first nap in her beautiful crib yesterday. We decided it was a good idea to practice... But I (for certain) am not ready for her to sleep alone yet!!
Thursday night, she slept all the way from 11:30 to 6... That made us a little nervous, even though it was great getting that much sleep!! We decided to set an alarm for 5 hours from her last feeding-- and wake her up to eat. Even though she didn't wake up crying even after that long, Tony & I don't want to starve her and stunt her growth!!
Uncle Dean, Aunt Ann and cousin Jessica came over yesterday to visit our little princess. Yes, we realize that is what it has come to-people come to our house to visit HER... ;) We were so glad to see them! Maddie was great-I think she redeemed herself from Aunt Ann's first visit... After just a couple days home from the hospital, I'm not sure our little gal (and us!) had learned enough about each other to be nice for visitors yet! Now, after 13 days of practice, the three of us have gotten down a routine and feel a lot more comfortable, which I think Maddie can feel--and it helps relax her too.

Tony decided it was time to take a few more oranges from his tree. He really has nursed his two orange trees through the seasons. One--the mandarin--has yet to produce anything, but in all fairness he DID cut it to the ground last year. The satsuma gave us about 10 oranges this year. We lost some along the way, but he managed to keep about 7. We ate one last weekend and it was great! We picked 4 yesterday and haven't cut them yet...
Last pics-we tried burping Maddie a different way, and Tony thought it was too cute... |
