4 Months down a lifetime to go....
This has been a trying month. Emory is growing and learning new things everyday. We have experienced a daily case of "The Evenings" aka crying between 5-7 pm and only being consoled by a bottle or being outside on the deck.
We had a 2 day fever of a 100.4 with a Dr visit just to say its teething. Also this month the Tuesday after Memorial Day, Emory started Day Care at Wee Care. Its across the street from my work and 2 doors down from my father in laws office. Our first day should go in the record books. I cried at least 6 times, walked over to check on her ( she was sound asleep in her bed :) ) I survived the morning into the afternoon and at 3:00 got the dreaded call. I thought oh Emmy is fussy and they cant console her.......Nope..... She woke up from her nap and had her eye matted shut. It clicked. Emory had pink eye. A family member had had it over the holiday weekend but we thought she was safe! WRONG!! So we rushed to the Dr and got her some eye drops! She had to stay home wed and got to go back Thursday. It was definitely a week to remember!
* This very morning Emmy woke up with a cough and runny nose and a lot of drainage. The drainage is so bad it made her sick 4 different times this morning. So I called Mama T asap and she agreed to keep her today! 2 weeks of daycare and have not made it a full week yet. Arg.
Sleeping- ( This month has turned out 3 different sleep schedules) She goes to bed around 8ish sleeps til 4-6 am. Lately day care has rocked her world and she can fall asleep at 5 and sleep till midnight, console/snuggle/give paci back and out for another few hours. She has been waking up between 5-6 since we started day care. Monday I started keeping her super busy when we get home from school let her sleep about 30 minutes and wake her up. We will then play some more and work on rolling over and by 7:30ish she's ready for a bottle and out for the night and his been waking up between 6-6:30 am. We are TRYING to keep Routine #3!
Feeding- eats 5oz sometimes you need an extra 2 ounces. She has been pretty consistent with her feedings as for the amount she drinks. As for time in between bottles can range from 1:45- 4 hour spans. She is so random!
