The Joys of Sleep

WOW, it is amazing how fantastic it feels when you are able to get some uninterrupted sleep. Addison has slept about 5 hours at one time at night the last 4 nights. I like to think that we are starting to get on a schedule. She is going to bed at 10 and then waking up at 2:30 or 3:30 and then going back to sleep till around 6:30 or 7:30. I can't believe how much more rested I feel. I pray that this continues and maybe will even get a little longer.

Addison is now about 6 and 1/2 weeks old and growing like crazy. She is smiling more and more and very interested in her surroundings. I have noticed though this past week that she is becoming more of a "Mommy's girl" . She used to not mind other people holding her that she was unfamiliar with, but now she cries and wants mom. It is very nice to be wanted, but hopefully she will also allow mom to have a break sometimes :).

We are packing up and getting ready for our big travels. We go to Lake Tahoe next week for a family reunion and then off to Oregon. The challenge is to pack enough things and clothes for the little one and myself :).
