Well time has already flown by and Sipsey is over two weeks old. Her sleeping habits have gotten better, but we still have trouble some nights. Wednesday night was a "good" night for us. We put her to bed at 10, then she woke up to eat at 12, 3:30, 5:30, and 7:30. Keep in mind that feeding sessions take at least an hour including diaper changing, burping and rocking back to sleep. So, do the math and you will see how little sleep I am getting. The only other thing that complicates matters is that she gets AWFUL tummy aches and you can actually hear her tummy rumbling. They often occur right when we are winding down and wanting to go to bed. These finally pass and she is fine, but then she's hungry because she couldn't eat because her stomach was hurting so bad and we start all over again. Last night was awful putting her to bed, but we FINALLY put her in the bed with us at 11 and magically, she went to sleep and slept until 4. I fed her and then we went back to bed until 7:30! I do not want to make this a habit, but she is getting sleep and we are getting sleep, so I can't complain. Here are some pictures I took yesterday. We sort of forgot to take pictures lately but we will pick it back up again now!

Hey Lauren, She is still beautiful! Don't worry about her sleeping in your bed, Colby slept in mine until he wouldn't fit anymore! He graduated to the floor and we finally moved a couch in our room :) He was 12 when he finally moved out. But remember she is only little once and if ya'll are comfy then so be it! Colby turned out just fine. I tried to get Carly to sleep with us, but she liked her bed better and still does! Just remember when you try to get her to sleep in her own bed and she won't, that you started it!!!(haha) I can't wait to see her again! Give her lots of kisses for me! Aunt Laura
awww I miss her...and yall!! I've been a horrible cousin!:( Every time I think to call, I think yall might be sleeping then I get busy. Maybe we can see yall this weekend. I am off Sunday so I will call you.
Sis,
I can't believe how much she has grown. I can't wait until you can
bring her home so I can see her
again. Her Papa has not seen her,
nor has her greataunt Donna. I know
they will be the first ones to see her when you can bring her to Dothan.
She is so beautiful and everyone wants to see her.
POPS
P-R-E-C-I-O-U-S!!!! I want to see her soooo bad. We wanted to come by when we were in Bham, but I think you guys had a Dr. apnt. and then it was time for us to go home. She is worth all the sleepless night! Lauren
