Tree Frog

There is nothing like having a little tree frog stuck to the front of you to bring a smile to your face...! Our little J-Lill had her first really good night last night (and I'm knocking on wood as I say this) and slept between each and every feeding WITHOUT screaming or crying (she got that out of the way earlier in the evening from 3-8pm). She wanted nothing to do with being put down in her swing or co-sleeper, so Chris and I had our little tree frog attached to our fronts for the night. But we will gladly sleep in the stiff board position if it means we can shut our eyes without a headache!

As I was laying there last night, treasuring her deep breathing and twitching little toes, I began to realize that her personality just may be beginning to show it self. Jocelyn is very precise- she goes exactly 3 hours between feedings (almost to the minute- she likes to stay on the hourly- 11am, 2pm etc), she was born exactly on her due date, and heaven forbid you don't give her what she wants, exactly when she wants it (aka- food) her viciously loud screams let you know you are not holding up your end of the bargain (her end is just being cute- you're responsible for everything else). Some might call her a little demanding.... we'll just call her our Tree Frog (for lack of cute, demanding animal coming to mind)

Look at those cheeks!!
