Sleepy Time

When we brought Allie home she had a pack-n-play that had a co-sleeper. Well in no time she out grew the co-sleeper and then it turned into a bassanet. The past few nights she has not been sleeping that good. She has been waking up at about 2 to 3 AM. It has been pretty easy to get her back to sleep, but i know she is not resting good. She has a crib, but it is not in our room, and i am way too chicken to put her in her own room. So tonight we moved he crib into our room and we are going to try it to see how she sleeps. I am still freaking out that she will not be right next to me. I know to some people it's not a big deal, but to me and most mothers of premiees it freaks us out. So pray for us tonight and i will let you know how it goes!

Long time, No post

Well guys I am sorry it's been such a long time since i have updated everyone. When it got close to us leaving the hospital there wasn't much to post about. Then when we got home we didn't have Internet. Now we have Internet so i will be able to keep you updated. Allie has grown so much!! She is 6 months old and weighs 8 pounds 7 ounces 20 1/2 inches long. That's a long way from 1 pound  3 ounces 12 1/2 inches! She now "talks", rolls over, laughs, and she can take her paci out of her mouth. She eats cereal and started baby food last week. She loves carrots and squash so far, and hates green beans. She don't really know what to think of her cereal. She LOVES mirrors, which if i was that beautiful i would too...lol! It has been awesome having her home. Then at times it has been hard. You can't sleep in and let the nurses handle one feeding. And she has had problems with her old milk. I caused her to have trouble pooping and she didn't eat at all and just cried. She lost 4 ounces from all of that, but we have new milk and have it fixed now. She is still in newborn clothes. Carters newborns are almost too small, but any other brand is too big still. I have to say her size is one thing that I love and hate about her being early. I love it because i get to still have a "infant" but i hate it for several reasons. clothing is one. Like i have no clue what size she will be in the summer, so i can't buy clothes. Also i hate it because she wants to move so much. I swear if she could get up and walk she would. I just hate that she is a 6 month old stuck in a newborn body. I know it will get better, but it's just hard to watch her get frustrated because she can't do something. Plus i am tired of people thinking i am lying about her age...lol!
