Things she's really into these days:
- Sleeping! She typically sleeps from about 10:00-10:00ish...with one feeding around 7 am. What a girl! Now, since she's started sleeping so much at night, her naps during the day have drastically decreased...which is fine. She's very alert while she's awake and likes to see what's going on around her.
- Holding her head up! We've starting using the Bumbo with her just for small amounts of time. She likes it probably because it's a whole new viewpoint on life. She's not too thrilled with playing on her tummy but we're working on that.
- Her bouncy seat! Yes, it's still her favorite place to perch. She takes most of her naps in it and hangs out in it while we eat our meals. She also enjoys laying flat on the floor on her blanket, but that's a danger zone when Lucas is playing around her. :)
- Eating! As you can see by her size, she loves to eat. During the day I nurse her about every 3-3 1/2 hours.
- Smiling! This is the cutest thing to watch- if you can get her to smile real big she wrinkles up her nose!! I love it when this happens!!
- Cooing! Sophie has really started to enjoy this whole new form of communication. She makes the cutest noises when you sit real close to her face. It's as if you're having a conversation back and forth with her. She looks intently in your eyes while she talks to you... it melts my heart every time.
- Ceiling fans! Still, her very best friend.
Things she's just not that into:
- Being forced to stay up past her bedtime. I learned this when flying home from Seattle and our flight was delayed until 11:30 at night. She wasn't a happy camper. Poor girl...
- Bottles!! Ugh. This is still a major struggle. I wish I knew the trick to get her to take one.

She is adorable. The bottle thing has always been hard for us until Judah came along. Arwyn never really took one. We use the Breastflow bottle sold at Target and he takes it quite well. So, that might help. Otherwise, you might just have to go cold turkey on her and leave her Eric and wait it out until she gives in. I know that sounds awful, but sometimes it is the only thing that works.
