Naps and Cereal-update

For those of you who follow the blog, you know I've been having trouble with both naps and introducing cereal. I thought I just might give you an update to the ongoing process.

Cereal- I re-introduced rice cereal this week. It's coming along much better. We had a breakthrough today when she even opened her mouth nice and wide as the spoon came up with "yummy" cereal. I actually saw her swallow today too. A lot still ended up all over though.

Naps- This is not getting much better. She is really resistant to fall asleep during the day (she's an angel every night though). Some days she sleeps as little as 3 twenty minute naps or 2 half hour naps. Yesterday, she napped for 6 hours! Let me explain (because I wasn't super happy about it). She fell asleep after nursing around 3:30. She stayed alseep in her bouncy chair until 6pm. I left as Alex was getting home. I guess he didn't understand that she'd been asleep for so long so he left her in the dark bedroom with the vibrating bouncy chair. When I got home at 9 she was just stirring.

The biggest shock: She nursed again and went to bed! Slept until 6:30am. Must have needed it.
